Chevrolet Silverado 1500

"Came loose on both sides"

"Door Trim coming loose. Rubber inset on the chrome tube step has broken off"

"door molding on passenger side came loose"

"The dashboard cracked and needs to be replaced"

"Too many areas to discuss... New Rust Check annually to survive."

"approximate 10 x 4 inch section of paint raised and came off at the bottom of the driver and passenger doors"

"Paint is bubbling up on rear wheel wells where rust thru is happening"

"rusting on the wheel wells of the truck bed from the inside out. no other spots on the rest of the truck."

"Both sides of the wheel well housing started to rust out on the rear quarter panels"

"purchased in 2017 rust-free and it started rusting almost right away over the rear wheels and bottom of passenger door. Those spots are now severely rusted, because of that the truck looks a lot older than it is."

"The rubber door seal at the bottom of the door frame is right where you drag your feet across it getting in or out. It developed a gap there allowing water into the gap. When I pulled it back it has got serious rust in there on the floor panel or rocker panel. Thats the only place I have any rust, it otherwise looks like a new truck."

"The rear wheel wells show rust bubbles after 10 years and less than 60000 miles. Vehicle has been garaged every day including thru wisconsin winters. I see this with almost every CHEVROLET or GM truck around the same age. Why?!?!?"

"There is about a 1 inch diameter bubbled area with rust in the paint toward the front of the roof which I noticed summer 2019."

"Starting to rust above rear wheel well"

"It’s rusting all over, body, undercarriage, box."

"Rust on wheel wells and under carriage"

"Rust thru is happening on rear wheel wells. On upper edge of rear wheel well and looking at other trucks that are same age it is happening to all of them. Is a major design flaw that CHEVROLET should go good for ."

"Had to have axle seals replaced due to leakage"

"The engine control module quit and could only be driven up to 30 mph.with no power."

"Battery failure without any warning or symptoms. Cost: $1,500! Was told the fender strut had to be disassembled, the battery cables needed to be replaced (and that the cables contained several other wires inside to control the Computer, A/C, etc.) which I have never heard of before. Plus $150 towing charge."

"The speed control resistor went out again. Replaced fan motor as well just in case it might have played a role in it"

"often, usually in the winter, I’ll be driving and the truck starts shaking, the engine runs very bad. The traction control lights, stabilization lights come on and ABS lights all light up on the dash. It’s like it’s going into a protective mode. If I’m on the highway in traffic the engine immediately cuts out and I’m forced to try to get off the road before it completely shuts down if I turn the engine off for 10 minutes it will start right up and run good again but sometimes another 25 miles it shuts down again it’s very dangerous in heavy city driving In the summer it rarely happens If it’s below zero I know it’s going to happen Many people have taken their trucks to dealerships and they’ve changed many parts only to have it happen again Tell the people about this problem"

"The sensor is bad, it needs to be replaced. It turns off the traction control. It's too expensive to replace so I just deal with it."

"This was right after we purchased the pickup. It would lose cruise control, traction control/Stability control while driving. That this was a major safety concern the dealership did repair it. It was apparently an electronic component that was triggered when putting the cruise control on."

"Sometimes my truck shuts down and my traction control lights illuminate as well as ABS and Stability control The truck sounds like it’s going to blow up and it loses its 4wheel drive No power and if I’m in heavy traffic it’s extremely dangerous. It’s like traffic is going along ar 65 mph and someone puts on the brakes but no brake lights come on when I pull over to the shoulder and shut the engine off for 10 minutes the engine will run like nothing happened Check engine light does not come on so there’s no code to check"

"The traction control is tied to the ABS system, so when the ABS fails, so does the traction control"

"The Throttle body had to be replaced, with less than 25000 miles even though I had had it for several years prior and the shop said GM has had problems with the part. But had not recalled it."

"The check engine light came on took it to the dealer. I was told there was nothing wrong couldn't duplicate the problem. So they charged me 96 dollars for looking at it. I took it to an independent shop. They said it has a bad Throttle Body, I was skeptical. They were sure, replaced it problem solved"

"After a fill-up at the gas station, the smell of gas just kept getting stronger and stronger. I got it home, left it running in the driveway. I looked under the truck and there was already a puddle of gas. Immediately shut it off! I researched the leak online, figured it was definitely the fuel, and ordered one from rockauto.com. I watched videos to learn how to replace the fuel on my particular truck. I'm a 100% disabled veteran with a bad back and a horribly bad foot. To say I'm living on a fixed income that barely pays the bills, is the understatement of the century! So I knew I was gonna have to do this myself. Not good, especially when you consider after doing a job like this, it takes at least a week to recover and get my pain levels back down to a tolerable number! I hope, and pray for miracles!! I pray some day, some how, some way, that I can get a newer truck!! This CHEVROLET Silverado is now 11 years old, with about 106,000 miles on it. Other than the TPMS sensor's batteries dying inside the tires, and the TPS(Throttle Position Sensor) going out. It has been a great truck!! The Silverado Z71 was always my dream truck, and this one did not disappoint!! I can only hope and pray that I can get at least another 10 years out of this one! Please no issues and no repairs for the next 10 years! The repairs hurt me too bad!!!"

"I beleive the problem was caused by the dealer during routine service."

"Rusted out"

"fuel sensor light alerted to problem.mechanic replaced sensor"

"sensor on the top of the gas tank failed"

"Check engine light is on and I had it checked and it is an emission sensor that does nothing"
