1998 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 complaints

OWNER COMPLAINED ABOUT WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR PROBLEM. WHEN IT RAINED THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS QUIT. OWNER CONTACTED THE DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER, AND NEITHER WAS WILLING TO ASSIST THE CONSUMER. *AK

STARTING AROUND 70,000 MILES, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STARTED TO MALFUNCTION. WHEN I ATTEMPT TO TURN THEM OFF THEY WILL OFTEN CONTINUE TO RUN FOR 30 SECONDS OR LONGER BEFORE STOPPING. WHEN THEY DO STOP, IT IS USUALLY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD. I HAVE TO TURN THEM ON AND OFF 10 TO 15 TIMES TO GET THEM STOPPED WHERE THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO STOP. WHEN I TRY TO USE THEM ON THE INTER. SPEEDS THEY OFTEN RUN AT A REGULAR SPEED WITH NO PAUSES BETWEEN WIPES. *JB

WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING AND THEN RESUMED FUNCTION AFTER AN UNSPECIFIC LENGTH OF TIME. *JB

THE CABLES ON THE LIFTGATE BROKE, CAUSING IT TO FALL, AND NOT BEING ABLE TO STAND UP. MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED BY CONSUMER.*AK

WHILE DRIVING AT MOST ANY SPEED AND MAKING A SLIGHT RIGHT HAND TURN, THE POWER STEERING WILL HESITATE THEN JERK TO THE RIGHT, REQUIRING THE DRIVER TO SOMETIMES OVER COMPENSATE THE STEERING TO TO LEFT. AT THIS TIME THE PROBLEM HASN'T BEEN BAD ENOUGH TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT, BUT IS GETTING WORSE. THIS HAS HAPPENED HUNDREDS OF TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR. I HAVEN'T FIXED THE PROBLEM SINCE I CAN'T AFFORD THE REPAIR COST. *AK

VEHICLE WAS PARKED FOR ABOUT 24 HOURS WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT CAUGHT ON FIRE. RESULTS SHOWED THAT THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL SHORT IN THE DASHBOARD, WHICH CAUSED THE FIRE. CONSUMER WILL CONTACT MANUFACTURER.*AK

WINDSHIELD WIPER ON 1998 K1500 PICKUP OPERATES INTERMITTENTLY, SOMETIMES STOPPING WHILE OPERATING, AT OTHER TIMES NOT OPERATING WHEN TURNED ON, AND OTHER TIMES CONTINUING TO RUN WHEN TURNED OFF OR RUNNING CONSTANT WHEN IN THE INTERMITTENT MODE. SOUNDS IDENTICAL TO THE PROBLEMS COVERED IN GM RECALL NO. 03023. *AK

ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED OF 50 MPH OR MORE. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER ON THE SECOND INCIDENT WHICH OCCURRED ON FEBRUARY 9, 2005. THE DEALER BELIEVED THAT THE PROBLEM MAYBE A FAULTY SAFETY CUT OFF SWITCH. *AK CONSUMER HAD BUDDY-BOOSTER REMOVED AND PROBLEM HAS NOT REOCCURRED. *TT

I CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE AN INTERMITTENT LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHEN TURNING WHICH FEELS LIKE HITTING A PATCH OF ICE WHILE GOING AROUND A TURN. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND KNOW THAT GM HAS ISSUED A RECALL ON OTHER MODELS BUT NOT MINE. I HAVE NOT YET REPLACED ANY OF THE STEERING COMPONENTS BUT WILL SOON DUE TO THE SEVERITY OF THE SITUATION. IT'S UNFORTUNATE THAT AN OBVIOUS DEFECT IS NOT CURRENTLY UNDER RECALL. *JB

TOTAL FAILURE OF A FIRESTONE WILDERNESS AT SIZED 235/75/R15 WITH DOT SERIAL NUMBER 8XHL1RY1201 DUE TO 1 INCH SIZED ROCK THROUGH THE TREAD, NOT THE SIDEWALL. THE TIRE(S) HAVE MORE THAN ADEQUATE TREAD ON ALL 4 WHEELS AND ARE ON A 1998 CHEVROLET C1500 SILVERADO PICKUP. THE TIRES ARE ALL THE SAME BUT THE SERIAL NUMBERS ARE QUITE DIFFERENT. THESE TIRES WERE ON THE VEHICLE WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASE USED FROM A MISSISSIPPI FORD DEALERSHIP. WHEN TAKEN TO A FIRESTONE DEALER THE SERVICE MAN STATED THAT THE TIRE IS RUINED AND IT NOT PART OF A RECALL WHICH ANOTHER TIRE STORE SAID IT WAS. IS THIS A RECALLED TIRE AND IS THERE ANY RECOURSE I CAN TAKE. THE FIRESTONE DEALER STATED HE WOULD HAVE TO PUT A DIFFERENT MODEL OF TIRE ON THE VEHICLE (THEY DON'T HAVE THOSE ANYMORE) AND THAT I REALLY SHOULD REPLACE ALL 4. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO REPLACE 4 TIRES FOR ONE THAT FAILED BY A ROCK WHEN THESE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE TRUCK/SUV/4WD TIRES. *JB

ABS SPEED SENSOR HAS CORRODED. GM DID NOT WARN ME OF POTENTIAL CORROSION OR THAT THE VEHICLE MAY HAVE PROBLEMS WITH UNCONTROLLED STOPPING. GM ALSO DID NOT PLAN A MAINTENANCE CHECK UP ON THE ABS SENSOR, WHICH COULD HAVE PREVENTED PROBLEMS. DURING THE SHORT LIFE OF THE VEHICLE THIS PART WAS GRADUALLY BECOMING DEFECTIVE. THIS PART UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD LAST THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE, SINCE IT IS IN A PROTECTED AND SEALED AREA THAT REQUIRES MAJOR MECHANICAL WORK. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE POINT OF PURCHASE, DON MCCUE CHEVROLET WHERE I HAVE MAJORITY OF ALL WORK DONE. THEY FAIL TO UNDERSTAND THAT THEY ARE NOT THE ONLY MECHANICS IN TOWN. THEY ARE USING THIS FACT FOR THE PURPOSE OF DENIAL OF ANY RESPONSIBILITY. I SPOKE WITH DENNIS BRINER THE SERVICE MANAGER AT DON MCCUE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, AND HE STATED AFTER SOME ARGUING THAT THIS AREA OF THE VEHICLE IS NOT CONSIDERED REGULAR MAINTENANCE WITH BRAKE JOBS OR ANY OTHER MAINTENANCE CHECK UP. THEY OFFERED $130.00 TO CLEAN THE CORROSION BUT LATER REFUSED, DUE TOO THE FACT THEY MAY BREAK THE SENSOR. MY FEELING IS, IS THAT THIS WAS A DEVELOPING PROBLEM OVER THE SHORT LIFE OF THE VEHICLE AND SHOULD BE COVERED BY GM. I SPOKE WITH GM CORPORATE DIRECTLY AND THEY RESPONDED THAT I FAILED TO KEEP REGULAR MAINTENANCE RECORDS. BUT WHEN I ASKED WHERE IN THEIR RECORDS DO THEY SHOW A REGULAR MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE FOR ABS SPEED SENSORS THEY SAID THERE ISN'T ONE. GM HASN'T BEEN ABLE TO PROVIDE ME WITH AN OWNER'S MANUAL THAT PROVES THEM RIGHT. THE

I HAVE BEEN HAVING POWER STEERING PROBLEMS WITH MY 1998 CHEVROLET SILVERADO C1500 PICKUP SINCE 2001. IT WILL SUDDENLY OVERSTEER WITH THE SLIGHTEST MOVEMENT OF THE STEERING WHEEL, AND HAS NEARLY CAUSED ME SERIOUS PROBLEMS AT SPEED. IT DOES NOT DO IT CONSTANTLY, BUT OCCURS MORE OR LESS SEVERAL TIMES A DAY DOWN TO ONCE EVERY TWO OR THREE DAYS. WHEN I ASKED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP IN ALAMOGORDO, NM ABOUT IT I WAS TOLD "THEY ALL DO THAT - DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT." WHEN I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT AN INCREASE IN THE PHENOMENON I CONTACTED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT JONES CHEVROLET IN SUMTER, SC, AND WAS TOLD THAT "THEY ALL DO IT," BUT THERE WAS A MANUFACTURER'S RECALL OR NOTICE OF SOME SORT, AND TO BRING IT IN. WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN, THE SERVICE ADVISOR SAID THAT THE INDIVIDUAL I SPOKE WITH WAS MISTAKEN BUT REFUSED TO ELABORATE, AND THAT IT WAS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. I DISAGREE, AND I BELIEVE IT IS A PROBLEM ACROSS THE GM SPECTRUM, AS EVEIDENCED BY THE RECALL REGARDING POWER STEERING ISSUES IDENTICAL TO MINE EARLIER THIS YEAR. I HAVE EMAILED GM'S CUSTOMER SITE WITHOUT RESPONSE, AND I AM NOW OF THE OPINION THAT IT WILL NOT BE ACKNOWLEDGED BY GM WITHOUT SOME SORT OF STIMULUS. AS I STATED, THE PROBLEMS BEGAN IN 2001, AND CONTINUE TO THE PRESENT.

THE TAILGATE SUPPORT CABLES WERE ABOUT TO BREAK. PLEASE PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. *JB THE CONUSMER STATED THAT GM WILL NOT REPLACE THE CABLES UNTIL A RECALL IS ISSUED. *TC

1998 CHEVROLET TAILGATE STRAP BROKE. *AK

WHEN ROAD CONDITIONS ARE WET, THE REAR BRAKES ON MY TRUCK LOCK-UP AS THE VEHICLE IS COMING TO A STOP. THIS IS A DANGEROUS CONDITION, AS IT INTERFERES WITH MY ABILITY TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE DURING WET CONDITIONS. ADDITIONALLY, WHEN I ACCELARATE FROM THE STOP, THE REAR BREAKS RELEASE WITH A LOUD CLUNKING SOUND. THE PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED IN THE PAST AFTER GOING THROUGH A CAR WASH, HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM DID NOT PERSIST SINCE THE WHEATHER CONDITIONS AT THOSE TIMES WERE DRY. IN THE LAST INCIDENT, HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM PERSISTED SINCE THE WHEATHER WAS RAINY AND THE ROADS WERE WET. I AM VERY CONCERNED REGARDING THIS PROBLEM. *AK

WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH CONSUMER HEARD A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT. CONSUMER WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, AND DROVE IT TO A BODY SHOP FOR INSPECTION. MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THE ROTORS AND BRAKES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO WORN PARTS. *AK BRAKE DISK ROTAR FAILED. ROTAR SURFACE BROKE OFF COMPLETELY RESULTING IN COMPLETE LOSS OF BRAKE IN THE FRONT RIGHT WHEEL. *TC

WHILE BRAKING VEHICLE PULSATED, AND THE ABS BRAKES ENGAGED. DEALERSHIP REPAIRED THE PROBLEM FOUR TIMES, BUT PROBLEM RECURRED. *AK WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES AT LOW SPEEDS ON DRY PAVEMENT THE ABS KICKED IN. THE DEALER HAS REPLACED THE FRONT SPEED SENSOR FOUR TIMES BUT THE PROBLEM RECURS. *NM

CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS. AFTER PICKING THE VEHICLE UP FROM THE DEALERSHIP VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE AT APPROXIMATELY 10:00 AM, 2 DAYS LATER. CONSUMER CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER AND THE DEALER, AND WAS TOLD THAT THE CAUSE OF THE FIRE WAS UNDETERMINED, AND THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT THE MANUFACTURER WAS LIBEL FOR WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED THE FIRE.*AK

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. THIS VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEMS AS DESCRIBED IN THE WINDSHIELD WIPER RECALL C02054. HOWEVER, THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL DUE TO VIN. *AK *SC

WHILE DRIVING IN INCLEMENT WEATHER WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED. THIS CAUSED POOR VISIBILITY TO THE DRIVER. CONSUMER WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND DROVE IT TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION. MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. *AK

WHILE DRIVING UP A HILL ENGINE HESITATED. CONSUMER DEPRESSED GAS PEDAL TO GAIN SPEED AND ENGINE STALLED. *AK

I HAVE A CHEVROLET 1500 CONVERSION VAN.TRANSMITION UNABLE TO GO INTO ANY GEAR. I WAS IN LYNCHBURY, VA. HAD TO BE TOWED. THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED 11/23/01. HAD TO HAVE TRANSMITION REBUILT. I WAS TOLD THAT THE MANUFACTURER HAD DONE SOME UPDATE TO THE MODEL TRANSMITION IN MY VAN. 06/01/04 TRANSMITION SLIPPING. HAD TO HAVE TRANSMITION REBUILT AGAIN. IN 21/2 YEARS I HAVE SPENT $4,500. ON REPAIRS TO TRANSMITION IN MY VAN. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THAT TRANSMITION IN MY VAN IS NOT COMPATABLE WITH THE WIEGH OF THE VEHICLE, AND THE MANUFACTURER KNEW THIS. I DIDNOT GET 40000 MILES BEFORE HAVING TRANSMITION REBUILT AGAIN. *AK

I OWN A 1998 CEVROLET K-1500 4WD SILVERADO PICKUP TRUCK. I'VE BEEN HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE SLIP YOKE ON THE TRANSMISSION AND DRIVESHAFT NOT PERFORMING PROPERLY FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS. IT MAKES A "SQUAKING"SOUND AND FEELS LIKE IT IS TAKING OUT THE SLACK IN THE DRIVESHAFT WHEN YOU PUSH ON THE GAS PEDAL. IT DOES THE SAME WHEN YOU ARE COMING TO A STOP. I WROTE TO CHEVROLET 2 YEARS AGO AND THEY TOLD ME I SHOULD GET A HOLD OF MY DEALER TO HAVE THE PROBLEM INVESTIGATED. I DID THAT AT BERGEY'S CHEVROLET IN HATFIELD, PA 19440 ON 02/20/2002-02/21/2002 AT A COST OF $103.67. THEY THOUGHT THERE WAS A REPLACEMENT SLIP YOKE FOR MY TRUCK, BUT WHEN I SHOWED UP THEY SAID THE NEW PART WAS ACTUALLY FOR A 1999 OR NEWER TRUCK SO IT WOULDN'T FIT MY TRUCK. THEY SAID THEY COULD PROBABLY REPLACE IT WITH THE SAME PART EXACTLY AS I ALREADY HAD, BUT WOULD EXPERIENCE THE SAME PROBLEMS DOWN THE ROAD. THEY INSTED TOOK MY TRUCK INTO THE SHOP TO GIVE IT A "FIX" BY DISASSEMBLING THE SLIP YOKE, FILING THE SPLINES ON IT, GREASE IT WITH "MAGIC GREASE" AND THEN REASSEMBLED IT. THE PROBLEM REAPPEARED TWO DAYS LATER. I CALLED THEM BACK. THEY SAID THEY'D CALL ME WHEN A NEW PART WAS DESIGNED TO FIT MY TRUCK BECAUSE UNTIL THEN THEY COULD DO NOTHING TO HELP ME. I FOLLOWED UP WITH THEM OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS, BUT NOTHING EVER CAME OUT OF IT. IT'S NOW TWO YEARS LATER AND THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. I HOPE YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP ME BECAUSE NOONE ELSE SEEMS TO BE ABLE TO. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND HELP. [XXX],\.*AK I

WHILE DRIVING THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS BECOME INOPERABLE AND OBSTRUCTED THE DRIVER'S VIEW. THE DEALER INDICATED THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE. *NM

I HAVE A 1998 CHEVY K1500 PICK-UP THIS WILL BE THE SECOND TIME IT HAS GONE TO THE GARAGE FOR A ROUGH SHIFT, SLIPPAGE DURING SHIFT I HAVE LOOKED ONLINE AND THEIR ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME TYPE OF VEHICLE, SECOND THE DOOR HANDLES BREAK VERY EASY ON THIS YEAR OF TRUCK INSIDE AND OUTSIDE. THE BAD PART ABOUT THAT IS FOR ANY REASON YOU GET OUT AND THE KIDS ARE IN THE TRUCK AND THE DOOR CLOSES YOU AREN'T ABLE TO GET BACK INTO THE VEHICLE, CHEVY DOESN'T WANT TO HERE ANYTHING ABOUT THIS BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY IT WOULD PROBABLY COST THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX. *LA

I OWN A 98 CHEVY PICK UP, AS WELL AS A 96 GMC SUBURBAN, AND HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THE POWER STEERING ON BOTH VEHICLES. THE PICK UP HAS BEEN EXCEPTIONALLY BAD WITH THE "HARDER" LEFT TURNS, AND THE "OVERLY" EASY RIGHT TURNS, OR JERKS. TRAVELLING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH EITHER VEHICLE, IF YOU ADJUST THE STEERING FOR A CROSSWIND, THEY WILL FIGHT GOING LEFT (THIS IS NOT CONSTANT, WHICH MAKES IT WORSE AS IT IS UNEXPECTED) AND LAUNCH TO THE RIGHT WITH THE SLIGHTEST TOUCH (ALSO NOT CONSTANT). I BELIEVE THAT THESE VEHICLES COULD EASILY BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I HAD SPOKEN WITH A LOCAL DEALER AFTER HEARING OF A POWER STEERING RELATED RECALL PENDING (IN OCTOBER 2003) AND WAS ASSURED NO SUCH THING WAS GOING ON, AND MY VEHICLES WOULD NOT BE INVOLVED ANYWAY. I HAVE SHOWN JAN. 10TH 2004 AS AN INCIDENT DATE, AS THE FORM COULD NOT BE COMPLETED WITHOUT THAT INFORMATION. THIS HAS HOWEVER BEEN A PROBLEM ON AND OFF SINCE PURCHASING THE TRUCK (NEW IN JULY 98) AND THE SUBURBAN (USED IN JAN. 99) ALSO, SINCE PURCHASING THE 96 SUBURBAN, I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE LOWER (MOUNTED ON BOTTOM OF PUMP) POWER STEERING LINE TWICE, DUE TO BREAKAGE AND LEAKS, AND I NOW HAVE ANOTHER (REPLACED SAME HOSE ON PICK-UP) LEAK SOMEWHERE IN THE PICK-UPS POWER STEERING SYSTEM (IT HAS BEEN TOO COLD TO WASH THE VEHICLE PROPERLY UNDER THE HOOD, SO I CAN INSPECT HOSES, BUT AM FAIRLY CERTAIN IT IS ONCE AGAIN THE SAME HOSE)

WHEN MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN AT LOW SPEEDS VEHICLE TEMPORARILY LOST POWER STEERING. DEALERSHIPS MECHANIC WAS NOTIFIED, BUT DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM.*AK

I HAVE INTERMINTTENT WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON MY 1998 CHEVROLET SILVERADO TRUCK. ALSO HAVE BACK/BRAKE/TURN SIGNAL LIGHT PROBLEMS.*AK
