Common Chevrolet Cheyenne problems
Chevrolet cars have been reported to have several common problems based on complaints from owners. These problems include:
- Leaks: Water leaks have been reported in various Chevrolet models, particularly around windows and sunroofs. The Equinox seems to be the most affected, with complaints of leakage around windows leading to moisture and fogginess on the windows. Leaking sunroofs and broken sunroof motors also cause pooling water on the floor of the vehicle. Some owners have found pooled water in the trunk and underneath the spare tire in their Chevy.
- Brakes & Electrical Problems: Multiple Chevrolet models have reported issues with brakes and brake sensors. Some owners have reported that the brakes locked up and did not work while driving, while others complain of failing brake assist. Electrical defects, such as failing back-up cameras, a sunroof that opens and closes unexpectedly, defective parking assist, and difficulties with bluetooth connectivity, have also been reported.
- Steering Problems: Locked-up steering is a common problem in Chevrolet Silverado and Colorado models. The steering wheel locks up completely while driving and needs to be wiggled or jerked back into action. This issue is incredibly unsafe and has led to numerous near misses for Chevy drivers.
- Engine & Excessive Oil Consumption: Chevrolet owners have reported numerous engine problems, including complete blowouts and engine replacements on the Silverado, problems with the lifters on the Suburban or Tahoe, and excessive oil consumption in Chevy cars, SUVs, and pick-up trucks. These issues have remained unsolved for many years, with faulty parts and system elements posing a number of safety risks.
- Passlock Problems: The Chevrolet Passlock system has been reported to sometimes not let the car start, causing a warning light to illuminate. This is one of the top complaints reported by Chevrolet owners, along with issues of being locked out of their cars.
- Air Conditioning Issues: Some Chevrolet models experience air conditioning issues, but some have rough shifting, ignition issues, and fuel pump issues as well.
- Delay in Getting Genuine Parts: Chevrolet owners have reported lengthy delays in getting parts to make necessary repairs to their vehicles. Some have been told that they have to wait weeks or months for repairs because the dealers just cannot get the part.
These problems increase the average cost of repairs and worsen the general driving experience for Chevrolet owners.
