| Jul 2019 | SUSPENSION,POWER TRAIN,STRUCTURE | I ORIGINALLY BOUGHT A NEW 2019 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 LD ON 06/08/2019, I REALLY LIKED THE TRUCK AND ITS MANY FEATURES. AFTER SEVERAL WEEKS I NOTICED THE WHOLE UNDERSIDE FRAME AND DRIVELINE COMPONENTS WERE RUSTED AND CORRODED. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO MY DEALER AND THEY IMMEDIATELY LOCATED A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE FOR ME. I PICKED UP THE 2ND NEW TRUCK ON 07/10/2019. THIS TRUCK HAS THE SAME DEFECTS AS THE FIRST VEHICLE. CHEVROLET HAS AN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL TRUCK. I SPOKE TO GM AND THEY DIDN'T SEEM TO CARE BLAMING THE DEALER FOR NOT INSPECTING TRUCK PROPERLY. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED AND UNSURE WHERE TO TURN NEXT, CAN YOU HELP ME? | Crash: No Fire: No | 22 |
| Jul 2019 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC),SERVICE BRAKES | ON JUNE 16TH 2019 I DROVE DOWN TO ATLANTA, GA FOR A BASEBALL GAME. MIDWAY I STOPPED FOR GAS. WHEN I TURNED BACK ON THE TRUCK, I REALIZED THAT I HAD LOST A AND IF I GET AN AMOUNT OF MY BRAKING ABILITY. HOWEVER, I HAD NO LIGHTS ON MU DASH TO INDICATE A FAILURE TO THE BRAKING SYSTEM. I READ ON A GM FORUM THAT OTHER OWNERS EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM, TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE FOR 30 MINS, TURNED BACK ON THE VEHICLE AND THE BRAKES WORKED AGAIN. THEY, HOWEVER, HAD LIGHTS INDICATING A BRAKE FAILURE. I FOLLOWED THE FORUMS SUGGESTIONS AND AFTER 30 MINS WITH MY TRUCK OFF, I DROVE THE TRUCK AGAIN AND HAD NO FURTHER ISSUES. I TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT, BUT AS I EXPECTED THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE. I WANTED TO START A PAPER TRAIL THOUGH INCASE THE ISSUE REOCCURRED. ON JULY 10TH THE SAME BRAKING ISSUE OCCURRED AGAIN. THIS TIME I WAS NEAR MY DEALERSHIP IN GREENVILLE, SC. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WERE ABLE TO CONFIRM A LOSS OF OVER 50% OF BRAKING BUT NO LIGHTS OR CHECK ENGINE CODE (PAST OR PRESENT) INDICATING A BRAKE FAILURE. I AM VERY CONCERNED AND BELIEVE THIS TRUCK IS UNSAFE BECAUSE OF THE BRAKING ISSUES AND LACK OF CONFIRMATION OF SERVICE LIGHTS ON THE TRUCK DASH. IT IS A DEATH TRAP. THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM A FIX EITHER DUE TO NOT HAVING A SERVICE ERROR CODE TO FIX AND TURN OFF. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN ISSUES OCCURRED BOTH TIMES. ON BOTH OCCASION AS, SERIOUS CAR ACCIDENTS ALMOST HAPPENED DUE TO LACK OF BRAKING ABILITY. | Crash: No Fire: No | 9,000 |
