Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Change Vehicle

"Warning light came on, I took to dealer, they found a faulty fuel pump, replaced under warranty"

"Very disturbing issue. At approx. 20,000 miles fuel would splash out of the filler neck when fuel pump clicked off. Fuel would splash out on the ground and on me if I was to close. Dealer said it was a canister and a solenoid problem and I would have to pay $524.00 because it was dusty and not covered by warranty. I drive mostly highway and only do 2/10ths of a mile on my driveway that has any dust. I argued them down to $324.00 because I was scared of a fire. I figured I would contact GM later. This did not stop the problem and they told me they would have to drop the fuel tank and if it was a dust problem it would cost me up to $1500.00. I was mad and went to a GMC dealer who replaced the fuel pump under warranty and said there was no dust problem. I opened a case with GM to get my money back and nothing has happened in over 3 months even though they call me every two or three weeks to say they are working on it. I would not ever buy a GM product again. I do not trust the vehicle and I do not trust them to back it up even while it is still under warranty. What about farmers and construction workers who are in dust all the time? I did not buy a Tundra because of the fuel economy. That was a mistake and I have since sold the CHEVROLET and bought a Tundra. The fuel economy is awful. But, I trust the truck and it has all the safety features that my high end CHEVROLET did not. A very expensive lesson I have learned."

"Vehicle check engine light would come on and the truck would slow way down. I stopped ,turned engine off and restarted two times before it would drive. Check engine light stayed on 40 more miles. Took to dealer and their scan showed nothing wrong. Also check engine light would come on and cruise control would not work for 45 miles. Then light would go off and dealer scan showed nothing."

"The built in antenna on roof was leaking"

"the center console is mostly plastic and therefore road bumps cause it to squeak"

"Truck is noisy on highways and rough roads. Lot of road, background noise."

"Engine would not start. But after a few tries it started. Took it to dealer. Codes were inconclusive. GM Tech told dealer to replace the fuse panel located in the engine compartment. I have had no problems with that since then."

"It was a coil issue which put the engine light flashing. Once diagnosed it has been running great. They figured out which coil was affected."

"Down time approximately 3 weeks waiting for rebuild on transmission due to personnel shortage! Vehicle provided by dealer for personal use."

"Dealer could not find problem, and denied problem existed. Repeated efforts to get repaired and finally corporate had them replace the transmission. Still had problems infrequently with rough shifting and failure to engage in gear, but would not replace vehicle. Will trade 2020!"

"My OnStar light continually changes color. When I take it in to be fixed, it isn't red, it's green indicating proper functioning. The next day it is red again. It's like the dealer doesn't believe me. In addition to this problem, the trim on the windows makes a lot of noise when I drive. There's sagging in the headliner (from an imroperly installed sunroof - the truck was leased new with a sunroof). There's missing pieces to the bed cover, that have been missing since the car was delivered. I've had so many problems that two months into my lease, the dealer had my truck more days than me. The dealer (College Chevrolet, Albion, MI) will no longer return my calls and hasn't fixed multiple issues. Meanwhile, we purchased the Audi Q5 a few weeks later - the car runs like a dream. We haven't had a single issue. The service is amazing. We go in, they give us a loaner, they change the oil, do updates, handle recalls. We go eat lunch and pick the car back up a few hours later. When we pick it up it's been vacuumed and washed. For very similarly priced vehicles (both about $50k), the Audi is amazing. When the lease is up on the Silverado we are done with Chevrolet!! There is a night and day difference between Audi and Chevrolet."

"Does not work as well as Ford. Air not directed equally, either too McGee in one area or not enough in another. Told if not happy put it on manual and contro"

"Poor quality paint, chipping since new"

"Headliner sags from improper manufacturer sunroof installation. Dealer attempted to correct this once. The headliner still sags. Unable to get dealer to correct this situation."

"The shocks on the truck had to be replaced because they were faulty. Squeeked and made a clunking noise when driving on rough roads."
