Chevrolet Silverado 1500

"Minor problems that are fixed"

"I've always had problems with the paint but in the last 12 months the clear coat has just given up on the roof and now the hood. I understand that I live in New Mexico but the truck just isn't that old and I've seen others that aren't doing this at all. Yes, I do wash and apply a paint sealer/protector on a regular basis."

"truck bed is rusting from the inside out. Alsothe rocker panels are rotted out"

"CD would get stuck and keep spinning not playing the music. Also got stuck trying to eject the disc."

"clock display and lighting went blank. replaced fuses but didn't fix problem."

"radio lights have went out also the radio will not turn off. inside mirror compass doesn't light up sometimes also airbag light go's and comes on"

"you can't use an after marker catalytic converter, only a dealer bought converter did work"

"Moved to a state that requires yearly inspections. Truck would not pass inspection due to warning light on dash and understood it was catalytic converter issue which was unable to be found with prior mechanic. Presently resolved after repair."

"check engine light"

"Fuel tank holds 26 gallons. The most I have been able to put in (past 2 years) is 22 gallons even when the tank is down to reserve and less than 20 miles driving range. The computer at fill up more than 2 years ago always stated driving range 350 miles. Now at fill up the most I can get is 315."

"Had to replace two chips @ different times."

"When I start the engine, it recently started makes a loud tapping sound for a couple of minutes ...stops after the engine warms up. The oil level and oil pressure are normal"

"Water leak going in some where near or around back window"

"Some sort of squeak under the hood, unable to determine the source."

"Annying rattle from dash area when hit bumps."

"Replaced all of the brake lines due to rust"

"The truck would not pass emission testing until repaired. It is important for me to note that I may have inadvertently caused the problem by topping off the gas tank one time."

"Fuel sending unit is becoming problematic, and is more costly to repair than the vehicle current value. Filling tank to 1/2 or 2/3 full is an interim solution, while researching a new vehicle."

"Keep jumping out of 2 wheel drive"

"Trouble shifting into 4w drive, lots of grinding sounds. Had to do something to the differential"

"Automatic switch and motor replaced"

"The transmission went out completely and the casing was cracked. It became necessary to purchase a new transmission."

"At 84K miles the transmission disintegrated, pumping metal bits into the converter. Complete rebuild/replacement of converter and transmission"

"went out completely"

"A/C was working 97% of time however when I took the truck in for the power steering the dealer said I needed to replace A/C unit."

"leaking heater core. required dash removal and $1500.00 labor. rediculous"

"hose went bad, replacement cost way way too much"

"Error message. Had to replace a computer component"

"Transmission cooler lines leak where the hose and fitting come togather by the radiator, a known Chevrolet issue."

"Tailgate difficult to get it to latch."

"tailgate latch stick open"

"The mechanic said the first thing that failed was probably a roller on a hydraulic lifter. This caused the computer to try to compensate with the wrong amount of fuel to that cylinder. This caused that piston to slap the side of the cylinder, causing excessive wear and eventually loose compression. When torn down, it had to have the cylinders bored, which meant new pistons, etc. Lots of other new parts, inside the engine and outside the engine, had to be installed to ensure the rebuilt engine's warranty would not be voided."

"Lifters wore. Compression low"

"I have to keep adding engine coolant to the reservoir. There must be an internal leak in the engine, because I have not found any drips or leaks around the engine or on the ground"

"Starter began dragging, like the battery was weak. Tested battery and it was OK. Had to replace the starter."
