JUST BOUGHT THE TRUCK, FIRST DAY OR TWO DROVE SLOW NO ISSUES. ONCE I GOT COMFORTABLE DRIVING AROUND 65-70 MPG I START TO GET A VIBRATION AND SHAKING TO THE POINT IT FEELS NOT SAFE AT ALL. I LOOKED UP ON THE INTERNET AND TONS OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. TRUCK IS BRAND NEW TRUCK. *TR
ON APPROXIMATELY JULY 19, 2014, THE HILL DESCENT MODE FAILED ON MY 2014 SILVERADO 1500 AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN A MOUNTAIN IN THE STATE OF WASHINGTON. THE TRUCK TOOK OFF WHEN THIS FAILED AND I HAD TO MANUALLY USE MY BRAKES IN ORDER TO AVOID CRASHING INTO ANY VEHICLES AHEAD. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN TO THE DEALER WHO, AND I QUOTE 'THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE CONCERN AND THERE WERE NO CODES STORED IN THE SYSTEM'. ONLY FOUR MILES WERE PUT ON THE TRUCK WHILE IT WAS IN THEIR SHOP. HOW CAN YOU POSSIBLY TEST THIS FAILURE IF YOU DIDN'T DRIVE IT IN THE MOUNTAINS? NEXT MAJOR ISSUE WAS THE ONSTAR ANTENNA BEGAN TO LEAK INTO THE CAB, SOAKING THE HEADLINER, THE FLOOR AND LEAKING INTO THE DASH WHERE ALL THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS ARE. DEALER 'DIDN'T HAVE THE PART TO FIX THIS' AND IT CONTINUES TO LEAK TO THIS DAY. AND FINALLY, HAVING NOTICED ALL THE POSTS ABOUT RUST UNDERNEATH THIS TRUCK, I TOO, DISCOVERED THAT THE 'WAX' COATING HAD DETERIORATED AND MAJOR RUST ISSUES HAD DEVELOPED. I HAVE OWNED CHEVROLET TRUCKS FOR NEARLY 20 YEARS AND I HAVE NEVER, EVER FOUND THEM TO BE THE PIECE OF JUNK THIS VEHICLE IS. THE HILL DESCENT MODE IS A SERIOUS AND POTENTIALLY DEADLY PROBLEM. THESE ISSUES HAVE BEEN REPORTED TO THE CEO OF GM IN A DETAILED LETTER WITH PICTURES TO PROVE EVERYTHING THAT IS WRONG WITH THIS TRUCK. CAUTION*****BEFORE YOU SHELL OUT FIFTY GRAND FOR THIS TRUCK, READ EACH AND EVERY POST ON THIS WEBSITE IN ORDER TO MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION. *TR
VEHICLE HAS BAD VIBRATION ,I TOOK IT TO DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS NORMAL BUT ITS NOT .I HAVE CALL GM 3 TIMES AND EMAIL BUT THEY DO NOTHING. *TR
I'M REALLY DISAPPOINTED IN HOW MY TRUCK IS RUSTING. IT HAS THE AMOUNT OF RUST THAT I WOULD EXPECT TO SEE ON A TRUCK AFTER 7 - 10 YEARS. THE TRUCK'S UNDERBODY INCLUDING THE FRAME IS RUSTING EVERYWHERE. FOR A TRUCK THAT HAS ONLY 6,000 MILES ON IT THIS IS RIDICULOUS. WHATEVER WAS SPRAYED ON THE FRAME IS JUST PEELING OFF IN CHUNKS. I HAD THE DEALERSHIP IN ANOKA, MAIN MOTORS LOOK AT THIS WHEN I GOT AN OIL CHANGE TODAY AND THEY AGREED THE RUST IS EXCESSIVE BUT GM HAS TOLD THEM TO DO NOTHING ABOUT IT BASED ON PI0281D. GM CLAIMS THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE MOST RUST RESISTANT TRUCK EVER. *TR
ON FRIDAY MAY 23, 2014, I WAS BACKING AN EMPTY BOAT TRAILER DOWN MY PRIVATE BOAT LAUNCH WITH MY NEW 2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 PICKUP. WHEN I PUT THE TRANSMISSION INTO REVERSE WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE THE ENGINE SUDDENLY REVVED UP, STARTED SPINNING WHEELS, AND SHOT DOWN THE RAMP HITTING THREE BULKHEAD PILINGS EIGHT FEET APART, FINALLY WEDGING THE TRUCK INTO THE LAST PILING AND STOPPING BEFORE GOING INTO THE WATER. THE INCIDENT LASTED LESS THAN FIVE SECONDS AND MY FOOT NEVER LEFT THE BRAKE AS WITNESSED BY A THIRD PARTY VERIFYING THE BRAKE LIGHTS NEVER WENT OFF. I FEEL OBLIGATED TO REPORT THIS TO BOTH CHEVROLET AND THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION. HAD THIS OCCURRED IN A PUBLIC PARKING AREA, SERIOUS INJURIES AND DAMAGE TO OTHER VEHICLES COULD HAVE RESULTED. AN INSURANCE CLAIM HAS BEEN MADE, AND AFTER REPAIRS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED, THE VEHICLE WILL BE TAKEN TO MY CHEVROLET DEALER FOR ANALYSIS FOR POSSIBLE DEFECTS. *TR
I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT WHEN MY VEHICLE WAS REAR ENDED LOCAL POLICE ESTIMATED OTHER VEHICLE'S SPEED TO BE 45-50MPH UPON IMPACT. *TR
