2001 Chevrolet Silverado complaints

I WAS TRAVELING WESTBOUND ON STATE ROUTE 262 AT APPROXIMATELY 32 MILES PER HOUR WHEN I ENCOUNTERED A STOPPED VEHICLE. I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN AN INITIAL BRAKE AND THEN LURCHED FORWARD WITHOUT MY RELEASING MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS CAUSED ME TO STRIKE THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY NOR DID THE SEAT BELT PROPERLY RESTRAIN ME. THIS CAUSED ME TO STRIKE THE STEERING WHEEL WITH MY CHEST AND STOMACH. THE HAMILTON COUNTY POLICE OFFICE DOCUMENTED THAT THE AIR BAGS AND THE SEATBELT DID NOT PROPERLY FUNCTION. I WAS SITED FOR FOLLOWING TO CLOSE EVEN THOUGH I FEEL THAT THE BRAKES FAILED. I PLAN TO APPEAL THE TICKET DUE TO THIS REASONING IN COURT ON NOVEMBER 29, 2001. THE SAFEY OF OTHER OWNERS/DRIVERS OF THESE VEHICLES IS WHAT PROMPTED ME TO WRITE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER FAILURES. PLEASE SEND THEM TO MY E-MAIL ADDRESS: [email protected] THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND ATTENTION WITH THIS MATTER.*AK

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE AND 1 WEEK AFTER PURCHASE THE ENGINE BEGAN MAKING A KNOCKING NOISE WHICH PROCEEDED TO GET LOUDER. I PHONED MY DEALERSHIP AND THEY MADE AN APPT TO BRING IN THE VEHICLE FOR INSPECTION. I WAS TOLD AT THAT TIME THAT THE VORTEC ENGINE MADE THAT SOUND AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO.

THIS IS NOT THE FIRST PROBLEM WITH THIS TRUCK, THE AIR CONDITIONING BLOWER MOTOR WENT OUT. THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT WAS NOT TIGHTENED, AND CAUSED WATER TO RUN DOWN THE BACK WINDOW.

ON 3 OF THE ONLY 4 OCCASIONS I HAVE HAD TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AT 70 MPH FOR ANY EXTENDED PERIOD WHEN OUTSIDE TEMPERATURES EXCEEDED 90, THE FOLLOWING SYMPTOMS HAVE MANIFESTED: LOUD ENGINE KNOCK SUFFICIENT TO SHAKE VEHICLE AND DISCHARGE OF LARGE CLOUD OF GRAY (NOT THE BLACK AS IS TYPICAL FOR A DIESEL) SMOKE. NUMEROUS CARS HAVE DRIVEN OFF THE ROAD BEHIND ME TO AVOID THE CLOUD OF SMOKE THAT OBSCURES THEIR VISION (AND POSSIBLY TO AVOID PARTS FROM A MOTOR THEY MAY THINK HAS BLOWN UP). VEHICLE IS PRESENTLY AT KING CHEVROLET, TYLER, TEXAS FOR 2ND TIME (NOT SELLING DEALER) AND HAD BEEN AT ONE OTHER DEALER; LEWIS CHEVROLET, CANTON,TEXAS. PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED. DEALERS SAY THAT GM TECHNICIANS SAY PROBLEM IS UNIQUE - NO OTHER OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THIS PROBLEM. PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED TO GM WHICH HAS ASSIGNED THE COMPLAINT FILE #4913340. AT TIME OF THIS FILING, IT IS UNKNOWN WHAT, IF ANY ACTION GMC INTENDS TO TAKE. I REGARD THESE SYMPTOMS AS POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS TO OCCUPANTS OF MY VEHICLE. I REGARD THE LARGE AND SUDDEN EXHAUST DISCHARGES AS BEING SERIOUSLY HAZARDOUS TO OTHER MOTORISTS.*AK

VEHICLE HAS STALLED NUMEROUS TIMES BOTH WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE STOPPED AT A LIGHT, BUT PROBLEM OCCURS INTERMITTENTLY. AFTER SEVERAL TRIES THE VEHICLE WILL START AGAIN. DEALER UNABLE TO RECREATE PROBLEM NO SOLUTION PROVIDED.*AK

I WAS INFORMED BY MY DEALER THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL & IS CAUSED BY CARBON BUILDING UP IN THE THROTTLE BODY WHICH CAUSES THE THROTTLE TO SEIZE. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT THIS PROBLEM BEGAN WITH THE 1999 MODELS & HAS CONTINUED UNTIL THE PRESENT MODEL. IT IS DEFECTIVE, HAS BEEN FOR YEARS, THEY ARE AWARE OF IT, & THEY DON'T CARE. THEY RECCOMMEND THAT & HAVE THE THROTTLE BODY CLEANED OUT ABOUT EVERY 4000 MILES AT MY OWN EXPENSE, EVEN THO IT IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THEY SAY THIS IS A SERVICE MATTER & THE WARRANTY DOESN'T COVER NORMAL SERVICE. WHAT A RIP OFF!

CONSUMER HAD APPLIED BRAKES TOO FAST. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION. *AK

TRANSMISSION SEEMED TO BE IN NEUTRAL AFTER STOPPING AND APPLYING BRAKE THEN ACCELERATING. DEALER PICKED UP WITH WRECKER. WHEN WRECKER ARRIVED, CONDITION COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. DEALER HAS VALVE BODY ORDERED TO REPLACE IN TRANSMISSION. SECOND PROBLEM: REAR LEAF SPRINGS SHIFT CAUSEING A KNOCK WHEN GOING UP UNEVEN GRADES OR SPEED BUMPS. THIRD PROBLEM: LOOSENESS IN TRANSFER CASE AND REAR AXLE CAUSE A CLUNK WHEN DOWNSHIFTING TO STOP AND SOMETIMES WHEN TRANSMISSION SHIFTS. DEALER CLAIMS NORMAL. LARGE ALUMINUM DRIVESHAFT TRANSFER SOUND. JUST EXCUSE FOR POOR QUALITY PRODUCT. THIS CLUNK OR KNOCK ALSO SOUNDS WHEN REAR AXLE MOVES ON UNEVEN GRADE WITH AXLE SHIFTING AND DRIVESHAFT STATIONARY. *AK

AT TIMES WHEN APPLYING BRAKE PEDAL TO MAKE A NORMAL STOP IT GOES ALL THE WAY TO FLOORBOARD, CAUSING EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCES. CONSUMER STATED IN ORDER TO STOP VEHICLE, CONSUMER HAD TO PUMP THE BRAKES. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION.*AK

ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, AND ENGINE MISFIRED SEVERAL TIME DAILY. ALSO, TRANSMISSION CLUNKED ON STRAIGHT AWAY, A TORQUE CONVERTER LOCK UP. DEALERSHIP WAS AWARE OF PROBLEM. . VEHICLE WAS THERE FOR FOUR TIMES, VEHICLE IS THERE CURRENTLY. *AK

AIRBAG LIGHT STAYED ON AT ALL TIMES. FRONT SENSORS WERE REPLACED TWICE, ONCE IN MARCH, AND AGAIN ON THE 2ND OF MAY. LIGHT WAS BACK ON, AND CONSUMER WAS CONCERNED IF IT WILL DEPLOY IF NEEDED. *AK

THE PROBLEM IS AN INTERMITTANT NEUTRAL CONDITION. THIS HAPPENS WHEN STOPPED AT A LIGHT FOR A FEW MINUTES. AFTER RELEASING THE BRAKES AND APPLYING THE ACCELERATOR THE ENGINE REVS, BUT THE VEHICLE DOES NOT MOVE. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE TRANSMISSION ENGAGES WITH A LARGE BANG AND THE REAR TIRES BREAK TRACTION. THIS HAS HAPPENED SIX TIMES. THE DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO PROBLEM. THE MANUFACTURE SAYS THEY HAVE HAD MANY CALLS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM, HOWEVER THEY DON'T HAVE A FIX. ON THE INTERNET, THERE ARE SEVERAL PEOPLE THAT HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM AND GM HAS FIXED IT WITH A NEW VALVE BODY FOR THE TRANSMISSION, AS WELL AS, A NEW FRONT PUMP ASSEMBLY. I FEEL THAT THIS IS UNSAFE AND SHOULD BE FIXED. THANK YOU.

WHEN PRESSING ON GAS IT DOES NOT ENGAGE, IT IS STICKING IN THROTTLE BODY. WHEN IT DID ENGAGE, IT CAUSED VEHICLE TO TAKE OFF AT A RAPID ACCELERATION. TOOK TO DEALER, AND THEY CLEANED THROTTLE BODY, AND PROBLEM STOPPED FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS, BUT IT DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *AK

CONSUMER HAS TAKEN VEHICLE TO DEALER ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO ADJUST SEATBELT FOR CONSUMER'S HEIGHT. SHOULDER BELT FITS BELOW CONSUMER'S SHOULDER. DEALER DOES NOT HAVE REMEDY TO REPAIR SEATBELT. *AK
