2012 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

I BOUGHT MY 2012 CHEVROLET SILVERADO TEXAS EDITION ON, MAY 26, 2012, FROM CLASSIC CHEVROLET OF GRAPEVINE, TEXAS. I PAID $31,622.80 FOR THE TRUCK. I FEEL THAT A NEW VEHICLE SOLD IN AMERICA SHOULD HAVE AN IMPLIED WARRANTY ATTACHED TO IT THAT GOES ABOVE AND BEYOND EXPRESS WARRANTIES WHEN IT COMES TO THE VEHICLE'S SAFETY. AFTER TWO YEARS AS AN OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE I NOTICED A STAIN ON MY REAR CARPET. THE MORE I RUBBED IT THE MORE IT SPREAD. I FIGURED THAT ONE OF MY GRAND CHILDREN PROBABLY SPILLED SOMETHING AND SO I JUST DECIDED TO TRY TO LIVE WITH IT. IN LATE 2019 I NOTICED THAT MY CARPET BEHIND MY DRIVER'S SEAT WAS WET AFTER A HEAVY RAIN. SO I TOWEL DRIED IT AND TOOK A PAPER RECEIPT FROM MY CONSOLE AND ATTEMPTED TO ADJUST THE HEADER PRESSURE ON THE REAR DOOR BY STRIKING THE ROCKER PANEL STRIKER. THIS YEAR I TOOK A TRIP TO KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI IN FEBRUARY. I FOUND MYSELF HAVING TO DRIVE UNDER RAINY, MISTING, WINDSHIELD, FREEZING AND FOGGING, UP. MY DEFROSTER WAS NO MATCH FOR IT BECAUSE IT NEVER WAS ABLE TO CLEAR MY WINDSHIELD SUFFICIENTLY. ON THE WAY BACK TO TEXAS I LEFT K.C. AT 4:00 AM. THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER WAS STILL PERSISTING. MY BLOOD PRESSURE AND HEARTBEAT RACED A FEW TIMES WHEN I TRIED TO MOVE AHEAD OF TRUCKS TO AVOID THE SPLASHING FROM THEIR WAKE. IN JUNE I DISCOVERED POOLING OF WATER BEHIND MY DRIVER'S SEAT. IT WAS SO RIDICULOUS I HAD TO TAKE IT TO CLASSIC. AFTER 3 HOURS IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THE SERVICE MANAGER RETURNED TO ME AND ESCORTED ME TO THE TECHNICIAN. THE TECH SHOWED ME THAT THE WATER WAS COMING FROM AN UNSEALED OVERLAP AT MY FIREWALL. HE EXPLAINED THAT THE LEAK'S BEEN GOING ON FOR SOME TIME. THIS AREA AT THE TOP OF YOUR FENDER IS WHERE THE WATER IS ENTERING AND IT FILLS UP AN AREA INSIDE YOUR FINDER AND THEN IT LEAKS THROUGH YOUR FIREWALL AND RUNS DOWN YOUR ROCKER AND SETTLES AT THE BACK SEAT WELL. THAT REPORT COST ME $145.00.*DT*JB*JB

WHILE DRIVING SLOWLY THEN ACCELERATION, ABS & TRACTION CONTROL WARNING CAME ON DASHBOARD.

DASHBOARD CRACKED AT PASSENGER AIRBAG AREA WHEN TRUCK HAD LESS THAN 25,000. CHEVROLET REPLACED IT UNDER WARRANTY. AT ABOUT 100,000 THE DASHBOARD CRACKED IN THE SAME EXACT LOCATION. CONCERNED THAT BECAUSE OF THE LOCATION OF THE CRACK IT MAY EFFECT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. EVERYONE I KNOW WITH THIS TRUCK IN THE 2011 - 2012 MODELS HAS THE SAME EXACT CRACK IN THE SAME EXACT LOCATION. *TR

TLA* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET SILVERED 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKES CEASED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INSPECTION STATION AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BALL JOINT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT FRIENDSHIP HONDO OF BOONE LOCATED AT 1440 BLOWING ROCK RD, BOONE, NC 28607, SOLD THE VEHICLE WITH A DEFECTIVE BALL JOINT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE 125,600. *BF CONSUMER STATED VEHICLE DID NOT PASS SAFETY INSPECTION TEST.*JB

WAS DRIVING VEHICLE ON HIGHWAY AND ENGINE SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN SCANNED CODE CAME UP FOR LOW OIL PRESSURE. CHECKED OIL LEVELS AND THERE WAS NO OIL PRESENT ON THE OIL DIPSTICK. I HAD TO ADD 3 QUARTS OF OIL TO RETURN IT TO THE PROPER OIL LEVEL. I NOW CHECK OIL LEVEL REGULARLY AND HAVE TO ADD AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL ON A REGULAR BASIS. *TR

MY 2012 CHEVY SILVERADO HAS STARTED CRACKING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE NEARBY THE AIR BAG AREA. THE CAR WAS PARKED IN MY PARKING LOT WHEN I REALIZED THIS CRACKING ISSUE STARTED. I AM JUST WORRIED THAT IT WILL CRACK MORE AND BE A SAFETY ISSUE IN THE FUTURE.

OIL PRESSURE WARNING INDICATOR ALARMED, STATING SHUT ENGINE OFF IMMEDIATELY! WENT REPAIR SHOP CLOSE TO HOME, A DIAGNOSING TEST SHOWED NO CODES AT ALL. A CHECK OF BULLETINS FOR POSSIBLE ISSUE WITH CODES THAT SHOULD BE PRESENT, WERE NOT THERE? SHOP HAS RECOMMENDED I TAKE VEHICLE TO A DEALERSHIP FOR FURTHER ANALYSIS.

MY DASH STARTED A SMALL CRACK BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. IT'S A VERY COMMON ISSUE BETWEEN 07-13 GM TRUCKS AND SUVS. THEY SEEM TO RANDOMLY CRACK I HAD MINE CRACK OVERNIGHT. IT MAKES A HORRIBLE VIBRATION SOUND WHILE DRIVING IT'S KIND OFF ANNOYING TO DRIVE NOW.

THE DASHBOARD CRACKED AROUND THE AIR BAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND BEHIND THE STEERING WHILE. I'M GUESSING IT HAPPENED OVER NIGHT I DONT KNOW EXACTLY. ONE MORNING I GOT IN MY TRUCK NOTICED THE CRACK AROUND AIRBAG AND WEEKS LATER THE ONE BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL.

I WAS DRIVING ON A CURVY ROAD RUNNING 45 MILES AN HOUR AND SUDDENLY MY MOTOR STARTED KNOCKING HAS 95,000 MILES ON IT.
