2017 Chevrolet Silverado Complaint Log

RADIO/NAVIGATION DISPLAY IS A 8" TOUCH SCREEN SIMILAR TO DISPLAY FOUND ON A TABLET. THIS SCREEN IS USED TO DISPLAY THE REAR CAMERA WHEN VEHICLE IS PLACED IN REVERSE. AT NIGHT TIME WHEN TRUCK IS PLACED IN REVERSE THE THE DISPLAY IS SO BRIGHT I CAN NOT SEE OUT OF ANY OF THE SIDE WINDOWS...TO USE MY MIRRORS OR SEE IF ANY OBJECTS ARE NEAR. AT NIGHT WHEN THE VEHICLE IS "DRIVE" IN DARK AREAS (LIKE HIGHWAY) THIS DISPLAY IS WAY TOO BRIGHT. I CALLED MANUFACTURER AND THERE IS NO WAY TO ADJUST THE BRIGHTNESS. IN MY OPINION THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS I LIKE TO HAVE MY INTERIOR LIGHTS VERY DIM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V088000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. RODENROTH MOTORS INC (3055 S MACKINAC TRAIL, SAULT STE. MARIE, MI 49783, (906) 662-4756) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY.

WITH APPROXIMATELY 7800 MILES ON IT, MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND I WAS CROSSING A HIGHWAY WHEN THE ENGINE STARTED TO STUTTER AND LOST POWER. I WAS ALMOST HIT BY AN ONCOMING SEMI WHILE CROSSING THE ROAD. I NARROWLY MISSED GETTING HIT, THE SEMI DRIVER SLAMMED ON HIS BRAKES AND HONKED AT ME AS IF I HAD DONE SOMETHING WRONG. I PROMPTLY PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, AND NOTICED A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I BROUGHT IT TO MY LOCAL SHOP WHERE THEY HAD DIAGNOSED IT AS A FAULTY LIFTER. THIS IS A PREVALENT ISSUE ON MANY CHEVROLET/GMC ENGINES AS THERE ARE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS RELEASED ON THIS. I HAVE ATTACHED AN OLDER (2016) TECH SERVICE BULLETIN, BUT THERE IS AN UPDATED ONE WITH THE FOLLOWING PART NUMBER: 15-06-01-002F. I WOULD LIKE GM TO STEP UP AND ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS AS THIS IS MOST DEFINITELY A SAFETY CONCERN.

The radio/ my link is way to bright and there is no option to dim it. This makes an eye distraction and hard to see the road at night. there are many post about this concern online.

TRANSMISSION ON MY NEW 2016 Z71 LT 4X4 JUMPS INTO LOW GEAR WHEN SLOWING DOWN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES, BUT KEEP GETTING TOLD IT SHIFTS FINE. I TOOK IT AGAIN AND HAD A MANAGER DRIVE THE TRUCK WITH ME INSIDE AND AGREED THE TRANSMISSION WAS NOT GETTIN INTO GEAR IN A NORMAL WAY. TOON IT BACK TO GET IT FIXED AND WAS TOLD TRANSMISSION IS FINE. I NEED THIS FIXED OR I WILL BE RETURNING HE TRUCK AS A LEMON TITLE.

STEERING WAS DANGEROUS. PULLED TO LEFT . TOOK TO DEALER WHERE PURCHASED. LOOKED AT IT. DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. HAD TRUCK 7 MONTHS. LESS THAN 300 MILES. DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. GOING DOWN ROAD, IT PULLS TO LEFT.

DRIVERS DOOR COULD NOT BE OPENED FROM INSIDE THE VEHICLE. HANDLE MOVED BUT DOOR MECHANISM WOULD NOT ENGAGE. HAD TO LOWER DRIVERS WINDOW AND USE EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLE TO OPEN THE DOOR. AFTER TURNING VEHICLE OFF AND RESTARTING THE ENGINE THE DRIVERS DOOR INSIDE DOOR HANDLE MECHANISM WORKED AGAIN. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT BEING ABLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE QUICKLY IN AN EMERGENCY OR IF POWER WAS DISRUPTED TO THE VEHICLE AND WAS UNABLE TO LOWER THE WINDOW. VEHICLE WAS STOPPED IN A SNOW STORM (BLIZZARD) ON A BACK COUNTRY ROAD AT THE TIME OF INCIDENT

BOUGHT THE TRUCK 16 NOV 16 IN IDAHO. NOTICED AT THE END OF JAN/EARLY FEB '17 THAT PAINT CHIPS/KNICKS WERE STARTING TO APPEAR ALL OVER THE TRUCK AND IN PLACES WHERE THE ONLY WAY YOU COULD SEE THEM WAS TO THE OPEN A DOOR (I.E. NOT EVEN EXPOSED TO THE ROAD). AFTER MAKING NUMEROUS INQUIRIES TO LOCAL GM DEALERSHIPS, ALL OF WHOM SAID IT WAS SAND DAMAGE, I STARTED DOING RESEARCH. TURNS OUT, I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS ISSUE ON THEIR TRUCKS. IT APPEARS THE ISSUES WITH PAINT ON GM (BOTH GMC AND SILVERADO) TRUCKS STARTED AROUND MID TO LATE MODEL 2014 TRUCKS AND PERSISTS TO THIS DAY (SEE ATTACHMENTS). ADDITIONALLY, MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP HERE IN RENO, I HAVE FOUND OUT, HAS BEEN LYING TO ME; THEY TOLD ME THEY SUBMITTED TWO SEPARATE REQUESTS TO GM FOR THE TRUCK TO BE REPAINTED AS THEY AGREED WITH ME (IN-PERSON AND VIA PHONE) THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE PAINT. IT TURNS OUT, THIS IS ALL A FARCE. THE TWO REQUESTS THEY SUBMITTED STATED, "CUSTOMER HAS BEEN ADVISED TO FILE A CLAIM WITH THEIR INSURANCE AS DAMAGE IS CAUSED DUE TO SAND DAMAGE. CUSTOMER INSISTS DEALERSHIP SUBMIT A CLAIM TO GM FOR WARRANTY RE-PAINT". WHILST I'M PARAPHRASING HERE, I WAS LIVID TO LEARN THIS WAS 'THEIR BEHIND MY BACK KIND OF THING'. PRIOR TO LEARNING ABOUT THIS SHENANIGAN, I THOUGHT FOR A SECOND THAT PERHAPS THE DEALERSHIPS COULD BE CORRECT, MAYBE IT COULD BE DAMAGE FROM DRIVING. SO, I TOOK IT TO THREE SEPARATE REPAIR FACILITIES IN THE AREA AND ALL OF WHOM SAID THE SAME THING, VERBATIM, "THE CLEAR COAT IS TOO HARD, IT'S LIKE GLASS. FACTORY DEFECT". WELL, THAT CONFIRMED IT. LASTLY, I HAVE JUST RECENTLY CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP FROM WHICH I BOUGHT THE TRUCK (IDAHO). THEY ADVISED ME AT 1352 ON 23 MAY 17 TO ESCALATE THIS ISSUE BEYOND GM. AND THAT'S WHY I'M FILING THIS COMPLAINT FOLKS. DO YOUR HOMEWORK BEFORE BUYING ANY NEW GM PRODUCT.

TRUCK EXHIBITS A ROUGH IDLE AFTER TRUCK IS DRIVEN AND WARM. IDLE CAUSES TEH TRUCK TO SHAKE AND FEELS LIKE IT WILL DIE AT STOPS. RPM DROPS BELOW 300 RPM THEN GOES BACK TO 490 RPM. IN ADDITION THE TRUCK WILL START TO SHAKE AND VIBRATE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OF 75-80 MPH. GMC SERVICE PERFORMED TSB CHANGING OUR ENGINE MOUNTS BUT THAT HAS NOT FIXED THE ISSUE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE ON SILVERADOS AND NO FIX IN SITE. CONCERNED WITH SEAT VIBRATION THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO POTENTIAL DRIVE TRAIN PART FAILURE.

POSSIBLE PISTON MALFUNCTION

I AM REQUESTING THAT DOT NHTSA INVESTIGATE THE EXTREME WOBBLE/VIBRATION/SHAKE ON NEW 2017 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW AND DRIVEN UNDER 55 MPH FOR THE FIRST 500 MILES. AFTER THE FIRST 500 MILES AND BEGINNING TO DRIVE HIGHWAY SPEEDS, BETWEEN 60 - 75+ MILES PER HOUR, A WOBBLE/VIBRATION/SHAKE BEGAN TO OCCUR. WHEN THE WOBBLE/VIBRATION/SHAKE BEGINS THE DRIVER FEELS THAT CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE IS BEING LOST AND THE DRIVER MUST DECREASE THE SPEED, WHICH IS ABLE TO BE ACCOMPLISHED WITH BOTH RELEASING FOOT OFF OF THE ACCELERATOR OR LIGHTLY BREAKING, IN ORDER TO REGAIN CONTROL. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER FOR FRONT LEFT WHEEL REPLACEMENT DUE TO THE INABILITY OF ORIGINAL TIRE TO BE BALANCED, THE VEHICLE HAS FIELD FORCE BALANCING 3 TIMES, AND THE LEFT FRONT AXLE BOOT HAS BEEN REPLACED. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO CORRECT THE WOBBLE/VIBRATION/SHAKE, THE VEHICLE NOW HAS ~10,000 MILES, THE WOBBLE/VIBRATION/SHAKE CONTINUES TO OCCUR AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.

PLEASE PROVIDE AN UPDATE ON WHAT THE NHTSA IS DOING TO ENSURE SAFETY ON THE TAMARA AIRBAG RECALL. THE RECALL NOTICE INDICATES RISK OF FATALITY TO PASSENGERS. THE RECALL NOTICE HAS A DATE OF MAY 27TH, 2016. I WOULD ASSUME 7 MONTHS WOULD BE ADEQUATE TIME TO RESOLVE THIS DEFECT. COULD THE NHTSA PROVIDE MORE INFORMATION ON WHAT OWNERS SHOULD EXPECT FROM MANUFACTURES REGARDING THIS?

DASH CRACKING IN PIECES COULD CAUSE PIECES OF PLASTIC SHARDS TO BECOME AIRBORNE WHEN AIR BAG IS DEPLOYED CAUSING INJURY AND POSSIBLE EYE DAMAGE. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN I HEARD IT POP AFTER TURNING ON DEFROSTER. IT APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM IN CHEVROLET / GM VEHICLES SPANNING MANY YEARS.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR 2 YEARS. THE DEALER WANTS $100.00 JUST TO LOOK AT IT. I DONT HAVE FUNDS SO I HAVE BEEN CHECKING FOR THE RECALL TO BE SURE. I WAS SENT A NOTICE FROM TK HOLDINGS INC. AND HAVE FILLED OUT A CLAIM BUT STILL DONT KNOW IF I QUALIFY. IT SHOWED ON ONE WEBSITE THAT THERE IS A RECALL SO I WOULD RATHER BE SAFE THAN SORRY NOT TO GO THE FULL ROUTE AND BE SURE MY TRUCK'S AIRBAG IS SAFE.

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that after starting the vehicle, the vehicle failed to properly accelerate. While depressing the accelerator pedal, the engine revved, and the vehicle shuddered and vibrated but failed to accelerate as needed. The following day the vehicle was driven to the local dealer and was diagnosed, and it was determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was later taken to the local transmission specialist who confirmed that the transmission was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 94,000.

I have had shifting issues with the transmission since 2 months into having this vehicle I have been reporting it to the dealership who has told me consistently that jerking grinding and loud noises are totally normal then the recall came out for these specific issues in the 2017 Silverados though my VIN is not listed but I still haven't always have had the very same problems stated in the recall

Anti-lock brakes do not work and have not worked though there's no recall for my vin, parking assist has not worked, blind spot stopped working also
