Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Change Vehicle

"compressor failed at 42000 miles big repair $800.00 not covered under warranty"

"HAD HOLE IN COMPRESSOR THE SIZE OF SILVER DOLLAR"

"AC compressor leaked and had to be replaced. Cost was $833 to replace. Prior to this, the AC line bracket leaked and had to be replaced. That was another $509. Expensive climate system."

"Compressor was leaking coolant. It was still under warranty."

"The A/C compressor failed leaving the vehicle with no Air conditioning."

"the problem just started (this is a one time event) and it will be repaired after the holiday"

"This is the second time in the life of the vehicle that the AC compressor has required replacement along with all of the hoses. The refrigerant leaks constantly, even after the hoses are replaced."

"Would not cool"

"I may have already reported this, but it had a leak last summer and was replaced under warranty."

"Cracks developed in the A/C aluminum tubing, Freon evacuated. Cost $1,700 to repair. Very irritated!"

"Started in October, 2019. Truck would not cool. It was repaired by a Chevrolet dealer a week later. It has worked fine since."

"truck overheated on the freeway. Stopped at a dollar general and let it cool down, checked fluids and added coolant. Drove home and made a service appointment. Did not drive the truck other than to the service appointment"

"The unit went out and I had the extended warranty. GM was out of the factory unit and it took 3 months to get. I could have paid an extra $500 to get one right away."

"A/C compressor broke. It had to be replaced at my expense because it was out of warranty."

"Just stopped working cost 1490 to repair and was not covered by the extended warrentee"

"Failed"

"The A/C stopped cooling and the condenser had to be replaced"

"ac compressor locked up"

"The A/C stopped working. The dealership replaced the compressor under my extended warrantee"

"Compressor seal leaked, it was replaced with a new A/C Compressor."

"The compressor failed completely and locked up. The engine compartment started smoking to the point I thought something may have caught fire. I parked the truck in a safe location away from all buildings and cars in case it did ignite."

"Truck started blowing hot air. Took it to the shop and they said there was a freon leak, so they put died freon in the system. The following day it started blowing hot air again. Compressor needed to be replaced...apparently a common problem with these trucks. Just out of warranty too, so I had to pay out of pocket."

"The blower is quite noisy and the baffles in the plastic housing that surrounds the blower have degenerated"

"A crack were two parts were welded The new part was reinforced in this area Poor engineering you never weld to a tube without a fish plate"

"Poor design on the couplings and the placement of the precooler which is prone to highway debris"

"There seems to be a crack in a condenser closest to the radiator which caused all the Freon to leek out. it will be repaired but it will be expensive. My mechanic says at least 5 -6 hours labor alone. We feel that this must have been a faulty part, since the truck has not been damaged ever."

"Condenser did not work because of leak at the seam, all of the coolant escaped."

"Condenser leaks. Needs to be replaced,"

"AC no longer cooled"

"A/C stopped cooling, leak in the condenser"

"Condenser developed a leak, requiring a replacement of the part"

"Condenser leaked out refrigerant repair shop new problem before opening the hood said they all had condenser leaking problem"

"This condenser problem is the 4th a/c problem with this truck. Two hoses, the compressor and now the condenser have been replaced. The symptoms have always been the a/c stopped working. It always starts when the weather gets warm. The auto control for the climate system calls for cold air and nothing but hot air comes out of the ducts."

"Leaking Freon"

"Replaced Leaking Air Conditioner Condenser for the second time."

"The A/C quit cooling, the vehicle still ran fin. I took it in to the dealer and they replaced the condenser. It was covered under the extended warranty."

"Started and repaired June 2017, second repair April 2020."

"It haD a leak the dealership could not fix. It was a known issue- factory defect (1000s on the internet complained of the problem) but manufacturer would not cover the repair for Silverado. They recalled SUVs for the defect that used the same condenser, but didn't recall the pickups with the defective part.So the pickup owner got stuck with repair bill."

"leak in the edge of the cond."

"Crack tubing"

"Condenser was leaking refrigerant. First recharge was within GM’s 3 year 36k mile warranty period. Condenser was replaced and system repaired successfully just outside of warranty period at no cost to me, because of previous history. And I’m assuming also because it was a known and common failure in this model vehicle."

"Condenser failed (leaked). Apparently this was a huge problem model-wide, and it took several months before parts were available. I was very disappointed that GM did not cover the cost of this repair, even though my truck was out of warranty by only a couple of months."

"The AC condenser started leaking Freon. A vehicle this new should not have this problem. DeNooyer Chevrolet in Holland quoted me $1400 to fix/replace. Another repair shop did the work for $690."

"It developed a leak and had to be replaced."

"Has a leak at one of the seams"

"60000 miles and the air conditioner goes out. This is a major issue and feel that the company should have better quality control."

"A line developed a leak twice and the compressor was changed once on separate occasions"

"The refrigerant leaked out and the compressor went out"

"The high pressure line ruptured"

"Refrigerant leak noticed at 18000 miles and approximately thirty-four months after purchase. Vehicle still under warranty. A/C system blowing warm air. Refrigerant was recharged by dealer with dye added. Source of leak undetermined"

"Replaced hoses and manifold that was leaking"

"AC line ruptured, was paid under warranty"

"The common problem on the Silverado, a cracked refrigerant line at the condense"

"The a/c system stopped working. The dealer found a refrigerant hose leaking, probably caused by a previous replacement of the compressor 18 months ago by another dealer."

"Leaking someplace, put a/c dye in haven't found leak yet."

"Line from compressor to evaporator leaked. Happened again in less than 12 months. Repaired by dealer at no charge to me"

"AC not working very well. Going to recharge and see if that resolves the issue."

"A/C line leak. Fixed under warranty. 12-18 months later failed again. Dealer fixed - no charge"

"This is the 2nd time I have had problems with the ac unit in this truck. It has been in the shop just recently and it is still not repaired properly"

"I have had the AC fixed under warranty twice now and while the AC is still working it is not cooling ENOUGH"

"They couldn't find the leak at first ,3 month's later it died and they found the problem and repaired it ."

"ac condenser leaked in the upper corner in the front. It is a known problem with GMC/Chevrolet 1/2 ton trucks"

"It stopped cooling in February 2020. Had it recharged, but it is not cooling again after 3 months."

"One of the Hoses from the AC Compressor started leaking and had to be changed out and New Refrigerant added , , , I hear that this has happened on a lot of CHEVROLET Silverado's from 2014 thru 2016 . . . Since this this is Not Safety Equip. , GM refuses to do a Recall on this item . . ."

"The manufacturers bracket needed to be replaced because it wasn't braced properly in manufacturing. The manufacturer stated this was a common issue. But the customer pays because it isn't a warranty item."

"Since buying new in 2014, the vehicle has experienced two separate AC failures involving failure of the Condenser (1st failure) and Compressor (2nd failure). Both failures were due to the loss of AC fluid brought about by the hoses leaking around their connection point to the AC hose connection block. The block was not changed when the Condenser failed, resulting in the failure of the compressor. None of these failures were considered by the dealer to be warranty repairs even though their failure to replace the block resulted in the failure of the Compressor."

"Got vehicle in cold weather so did not discover problem until warm weather when warranty ran out. Dealer did want to honor warranty."

"return vacuum valve failed causing a refrigerant leak."

"The drainage system for the sunroof gets clogged with tree debris and will leak into the cabin"

"cracked radiator"

"Sunroof drain was clogged and dealer didn’t find. Fixed. Myself with wire fish. Dealer made three try’s with no success"

"Water leaking drivers side head liner. Taken to dealer 3 times with no solution. Relative suggested cleaning sun roof drain line. That was fix."

"The antenna started leaking from the roof. Started last fall, was easily repaired for under $100 dollars. Had repaired as part of oil change."

"Bluetooth antenna gasket failed twice. Rear 3rd brakelight above window gasket failed."

"drivers side front windshied top corner leaked water"

"Rain leaks through the GPS antenna penetration into the cab."

"Leaked around the antenna on the roof"

"This is related to the wind noise issue as the seals on the driver side door aren't as tight in the same place on the passenger side door."

"Rattle in the dash"

"Rattle on driver door"

"Engine squeaks prior to acceleration at speeds over 25 MPH"

"This started as the quietest truck I have ever owned. It is now succumbing to the plastic squeaks that most premium vehicles have solved"

"dash rattles"

"Persistent squeak from front seat center console while driving on rough surfaces. Hinge replaced once by dealer fixed squeak. Squeak has subsequently re-occurred"

"Everything in the cab rattles and squeaks on the least bit of rough asphalt. I won't buy another one"

"Ugh. This truck rattles in more ways than I can describe - it’s enough to make me desperate to trade. All rattles are related to poor materials and fit and finish in the interior."

"Significant rattle in the dash. Dealer fixed two years ago, happened again after warranty expired"

"There is a wine while idling."

"Heat shield was rattling my mechanic installed a couple of washers and eliminated the rattle."

"Passenger seat was defective from day one. It rattled when no one was init and squeaks when I have a passenger. Dealership I ought it fromneverresolved the problem."

"Started when purchased 2014. Rattles, clunks, and clanks from transmission/rear end when driving. Unresolved to date."

"Front seat console squeaks and rattles at slightest bump. Very irritating. I have taken it apart and used foam tape, worked for a short time but squeaks and rattles are back."

"WINDOW AIR NOISE IN HIGH WINDS"

"Door Wind Noise over 55 MPH"

"Passenger side door"

"The wind noise becomes noticeable at 50 mph and higher"

"driver side windows leak when any crosswind present"

"Wind noise coming from around the front driver and passenger doors (not the windows). Truck is parked and wind is blowing, you can hear the wind coming from around the top front of the door that is on the side the wind is blowing. First the blamed it on the bug guard on the top front of the hood but wait, the truck is not moving. bottom line they still have not figured out not fixed this noise issue"

"Windshield was defective in first year of ownership. It leaked heavily the first time I drove my truck in the rain. The CHEVROLET dealer had a local glass company install a new windshield but it has had wind noise since."

"When driving at highway speeds on a windy day I notice that my driver side window is very loud due to crosswinds. This seems to be related to the seal at the top of the door and a problem that others have reported."

"Sitting still out in a parking lot with the wind blowing about 10 mph - get wind noise around both driver and front passenger doors. Not around the windows but the doors. Have returned to dealership multiple time and they have no fix. Guesses but no fix. Have done my own research and many are having this issue and no true fix for the wind noise."

"Pads worn out and damaged rotors on rear brakes"

"replaced brake booster"

"brake pedal became soft. Parking brake wasnt acting effectively. Brought truck to dealer and replaced pads and rotors. Truck got 70k miles on original brake equipment."

"Wore out brakes twice - was told maybe I am riding the brake -I DO NOT RIDE THE BRAKE. Or maybe carry too much stuff in the truck - trucks are designed to carry stuff are the not???"

"Had to replace brakes and rotors with only @20,000 miles and hot a heavy braker or heavy towing"

"3rd set of front pads in 66000mile"

"Because the rotors had to be replaced the brake pads were also replaced at the same time"

"The vacuum pump had to be replaced due to brake failure at low speeds. A $465 repair. GM issued a recall for it, but only covered vehicles up to 75,000 miles or so. I'm out of luck I guess."

"Rear brakes failed while on a hunting trip to Maine. I had the vehicle serviced the week before I left and the GM multi check showed all systems rated good (green)."

"The vacuum pump had a problem while I was towing going down hill. I lost my brakes because of it. I had to use the trailer brakes to stop. 2 years later I received a letter from CHEVROLET about the problem. They said that they would fix it or reimburse me if I had the receipt. I didn't have the receipt because it's been 2 years already."

"Vacuum Pump failed causing brakes to not work at low speeds."

"Only had @20,000 miles and had to replace brakes and rotors to pass inspection without heavy towing or braking"

"I expected better wear from the rotors"

"Shuddering when braking due the the rotors being warped. Rotors had to be replaced"

"one rotor is warped"

"BREAKS SQUEAK"
