2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

THE FRAME HAS MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF RUST. FRONT TO BACK EVEN REACHING UP INTO THE CAB AT THE REAR SEAT MOUNTS. ONLY 22,000 MILES. NEVER SEEN THIS MUCH AGGRESSIVE RUST ON SUCH A NEW VEHICLE. FEAR IT COULD EFFECT THE VEHICLE SYSTEMS, BRAKES OR FRAME INTEGRITY, SEAT MOUNTS. BOUGHT THE VEHICLE USED IN JUNE 2016 (PRIVATE PARTY) AND DID NOT REALIZE THE EXTENT OF THE ISSUE. ON BRIEF VISUAL INSPECTION LOOKED LIKE NORMAL MICHIGAN RUST. IT'S SO NEW AND THE BODY IS PERFECT DIDN'T THINK I HAD TO LOOK INTO RUST ISSUES. CHECKED CAR FAX FOR RECALLS AND ACCIDENTS.

**STABILITRAK** WHILE DRIVING HOME ON THE INTERSTATE I NOTICED THAT WHEN I PRESSED THE BRAKE THE RADIO BLINKED OFF. THEN WHEN I ACTIVATED THE TURN SIGNALS THE RADIO BLINKED OFF. AFTER EXITING THE HIGHWAY THE DASH LIGHTS WOULD FLICKER AS WELL. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN INTO MY DEVELOPMENT THE TRUCK SHUT OFF, WHEEL WHIPPED HARD AND LOCKED WHILE MAKING THAT LEFT HAND TURN. THIS FORCED THE TRUCK INTO THE GRASS COMING WITHIN FEET OF A TREE. SERVICE STABILITRAK WARNING APPEARED ON DASH. TRUCK WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED, BACKED OUT OF GRASS AND PARKED IN DRIVEWAY AT HOME.

PROBLEM STARTED WITH THE RADIO DISPLAY BLINKING OFF WHEN I PRESSED BRAKE PEDAL OR ACTIVATED TURN SIGNALS. THOUGHT THIS WAS STRANGE, BUT DID NOT THINK OF IT AS A SAFETY CONCERN. I THEN GOT STUCK IN A LITTLE RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC ON THE HIGHWAY, I NOTICED WHILE HOLDING THE BRAKE ON FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME THE TRANSMISSION WOULD DOWN SHIFT EXTREMELY HARD AND JUST ACTING STRANGE ALL TOGETHER. TRAFFIC WAS MOVING APPROX 30 MPH WHEN THE RADIO BLINKED OFF THE DOORS LOCKED, UNLOCKED THEN LOCKED AGAIN. A MESSAGE FLASHED ON THE DASH SOMETHING STABILITRAK THEN STARTED SHIFTING EXTREMELY HARD AGAIN. I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE AND NO WHERE SAFELY TO PULL OVER. I WAS TRAVELING WITH MY [XXX] OLD CHILD AND HAD SOME SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS AT THIS POINT. NO MORE THAN A MILE LATER, WHILE IN THE SAME STOP AND GO TRAFFIC AND APPLY THE BRAKES, THE RADIO BLINKED OFF AND THE TRUCK SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY WHILE TRAVELING AROUND 30-35 MPH IN TRAFFIC WITH A TRACTOR TRAILER BEHIND ME. I WAS ABLE TO SHIFT THE TRUCK TO NEUTRAL TO START THE TRUCK AND CONTINUE TO THE NEXT EXIT. WHEN SLOWING DOWN THE TRUCK STARTED TO SPUTTER OUT ALMOST TO A STALL AND QUICKLY FLASHING A STABILITRAK MESSAGE AND THE DASH BLINKING OFF, UNTIL I RELEASED MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE. I CALLED TO HAVE A FAMILY MEMBER COME PICK MY CHILD UP AS I HAD SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS OF MY CHILD BEING IN THE VEHICLE. I CONTINUED TO MY APPOINTMENT WHICH INVOLVED ACCESSING THE TURNPIKE THROUGH TOLL BOOTHS. WHILE SLOWING DOWN TO ENTER THE TOLL PLAZA THE TRUCK DID THE SAME THING RADIO BLINKED OFF, DASH DISPLAYS BLINKED OFF, SPUTTERING THE STEERING WHEEL AT THIS POINT RIPPED OUT OF MY HAND ALMOST CAUSING A COLLISION, STABILITRAK MESSAGE APPEARING. ONCE I GOT TO MY DESTINATION THE TRUCK SAT FOR APPROX 2 HOURS. MY RETURN TRIP WAS NORMAL AND DID NOT HAVE ANY ISSUES. THIS TRUCK IS A DEATH TRAP WITH THIS PROBLEM OCCURRING.
