Common Chevrolet Chevrolet truck problems
The Chevrolet Silverado, a popular pickup truck, is known for its reliability and safety. However, there are several common problems that owners have reported, which are worth considering before purchasing this vehicle.
One of the most common issues with the Silverado is transmission problems. Drivers have reported rough shifting, lurching, slipping transmission, hard shifting, stall outs, and near wrecks while driving at low or high speeds.
Another common problem with the Silverado is leaks. Water leaks around windows and sunroofs have been reported, especially in the Equinox model.
Brake and electrical issues are also common problems with the Silverado. Owners have reported locked-up brakes while driving, failure of the electrical brake assist system, and issues with the steering wheel locking up completely while driving.
Engine and excessive oil consumption is another issue that has been reported by Silverado owners. Some Suburban and Tahoe owners have reported lifter problems with their engines, leading to excessive engine oil consumption.
Finally, delays in getting parts and repairs can add to the frustration of owning a Silverado with these problems. Chevy owners have reported lengthy delays in getting parts to make necessary repairs, with some having to wait weeks or months for repairs.
In conclusion, while the Chevrolet Silverado is a reliable and safe vehicle, it's important to be aware of these common problems before purchasing. If you're experiencing any of these issues, it's recommended to take your vehicle to a certified service station for repair.

MECHANIC LOOKED AT VEHICLE TO SEE WHAT WAS WRONG AND FOUND OUT MULTIPLE ISSUES INCLUDING: FRONT AND REAR BRAKES BARELY WORKING, MASTER CYLINDERS MESSED UP, OIL LEAKS, TRANSMISSION LEAKS, COOLANT LEAKS, CONTROL ARMS HAVE RUSTED OUT ON BOTH SIDES BUT WE'RE WELDED (WHICH MAKES THEM WEAKER) I'VE BROKEN DOWN 4 TIMES IN A WEEK IN THIS VEHICLE BUT MY CONTRACTOR IN ITS IN ME DRIVING IT. *TR
Chevrolet Chevrolet truck 2000
- Date Of Incident: 2013-01-17
- Date Complaint: 2013-10-20
- Components: SERVICE BRAKES
- Summary: WHEN ATTEMPTING TO BRAKE, THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR, CAUSING ME TO SWERVE INTO THE OTHER LANE. NO WARNING LIGHTS, NO SOFT PEDAL..........NOTHING. HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP. ALL THE BRAKE LINES WERE SEVERELY RUSTED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF NINE HUNDRED EIGHTY DOLLARS. THE SHOP OWNER STATED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH CHEVROLET TRUCKS FROM 1999 TO 2004 AND THAT HE AVERAGES ABOUT ONE A WEEK. THE NEW LINES WERE MADE OF STAINLESS STEEL, NOT THE INFERIOR GRADE METAL LINES THAT CHEVROLET INSTALLED ON THE TRUCK WHEN MANUFACTURED. ALTHOUGH I HAVE ALWAYS OWNED CHEVROLET TRUCKS IN THE PAST, I AM OUTRAGED THAT GM WOULD PUT PROFITS ABOVE PUBLIC SAFETY AND WILL NEVER BUY ANY GM PRODUCT AGAIN. *TR
Chevrolet Chevrolet truck 2003
- Date Of Incident: 2012-10-15
- Date Complaint: 2012-11-08
- VIN: 1GCES14P43B
- Components: FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
- Summary: I HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEAR LAST WEEK AND BROUGHT THE 2003 SSR FOR SERVICE WEDNESDAY 10-24-12. SERVICE TEAM IDENTIFIED THE ISSUE AS A CRACK IN THE GAS TANK. THE CRACK WAS AT THE FILL AREA WHERE THE PLASTIC NECK CONNECTION GOES INTO THE PLASTIC TANK. YOU CAN IMAGINE HOW SURPRISING THIS WOULD BE AS A CONSUMER AND CHEVY LOYALIST! MY WIFE AND I ARE DRIVING AROUND IN A VEHICLE WITH GAS POTENTIALLY LEAKING ONTO THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. THANK GOODNESS FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT! I'VE OWNED NUMEROUS CHEVYS AND A COUPLE OF GERMAN VEHICLES OVER THE YEARS, NEVER WITH ANY FAILURE OF THE FUEL SYSTEM. THE DEALERSHIP IS HOLDING THE TANK FOR INSPECTION. IN DOING A BIT OF RESEARCH, I FOUND THAT THIS IS NOT NEW NEWS TO GM. IN FACT, THERE WAS A FIRE SAFETY RECALL OF TRAILBLAZERS IN 2004 WITH THIS EXACT DEFECT. DISAPPOINTLY, THIS RECALL DID NOT INCLUDE THE 2003 SSR WHICH IS MOUNTED ON A TRAILBLAZER FRAME USING A TANK THAT APPEARS A DUPLICATE TO THE TANK ISSUE IN THE TRAILBLAZER RECALL. (FYI, MY SSR WAS DELIVERED LATE 2003, SO I ASSUME 2004 TRAILBLAZER TANKS FOUND THEIR WAY INTO THE FIRST SSR PRODUCTION.) ADDITIONAL GM RECALLS OF PLASTIC TANK PARTS ARE ALSO RECENT HISTORY IN WARM-WEATHER STATES ON THE COLBALT, G5, AND THE EQUINOX. MY 2003 'SLINGSHOT' YELLOW SSR HAS 31,000 MILES, ALWAYS SERVICED AT VAN IN SCOTTSDALE. SHE HAS NEVER BEEN OFF ROAD, ONLY SEEING PAVEMENT. ADDITIONALLY, SHE HAS HAD NO ACCIDENTS OR REPAIRS; JUST SCHEDULE MAINTENANCE AT VAN CHEVY IN SCOTTSDALE AZ SINCE SHE WAS BORN. THERE SEEMS TO ME NO REASON THIS FAILURE WOULD OCCUR OTHER THAN A DEFECT IN DESIGN OR WORKMANSHIP. *TR
