2012 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

THERE HAS BEEN VARIOUS OCCASIONS WHERE WE ARE DRIVING AND THE TRUCK STOPS WITH NO WARNING OR REASON, THE FIRST TIME WAS ON I-95 HIGHWAY IN PHILADELPHIA MID TRAFFIC THE TRUCK TURNED OFF AND WOULD NOT RESTART FOR ABOUT 5MINUTES WE WEEE STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD BLOCKING TRAFFIC, NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR ANY WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. THE SECOND TIME WAS JUST THIS WEEK ON THE WAY TO TWO DIFFERENT MECHANICS TO GET THE COMPUTER READ IT TURNED OFF YET AGAIN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. BOTH MECHANICS SAID NOTHING CAN UP ON THE SCANNER WHEN CONNECTED AND THERE WERE NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS TURNED ON.

TL* THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V017000 (TIRES); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE CONTACT TOOK THE TIRES TO THE LOCAL HARBOR FREIGHT STORE AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE REPLACEMENT TIRES WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED.

GAS GAUGE JUMPS UP AND DOWN. WILL READ ALMOST EMPTY JUST AFTER FILLING UP OR AFTER ONLY A FEW MILES.

REVIEWED RECALL 18V295 AND MY VEHICLE HAS 1 BAD POWER WINDOW SWITCH WHICH DOES NOT WORK. COULD LIQUID HAVE CAUSED THIS SAME PROBLEM UNDER THIS RECALL? DOES NOT WORK IN ANY VEHICLE MOTION.

IGNITION SWITCH IS BAD. IT LOCKS UP TO WHERE THE KEY WILL NEED TO BE TURNED AROUND AND TRIED AGAIN. WHEN TAKING KEY OUT THE KEY HOLE (AT TIMES) STAYS IN THE ON POSITION AND DINGS AS I LEAVE MAKING THE ASSESSORIES FUNCTION STAY ON. IF KEY IS BUMPED THE KEY CAN TURN OFF TRUCK MAKING ALL POWER TURN OFF.

I ENTERED THE INTERSECTION AFTER STOPPING AT THE STOP SIGN. I WAS HALFWAY THROUGH THE DIVIDED INTERSECTION THAT HAD A ROAD CLOSED SIGN FOR THE EXIT SIDE OF THE INTERSECTION AND A DO NOT ENTER SIGN FOR THE ENTRANCE SIDE. THE MEDIAN WAS OVER GROWN WITH VEGETATION SO THAT VISIBILITY WAS POOR. I STARTED ACROSS THE INTERSECTION AND ABOUT HALF WAY THROUGH A CAR ENTERING AT FAST RATE OF SPEED HIT THE FRONT OF MY TRUCK KNOCKING TO THE LEFT. THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED AND I WAS THROWN TO THE RIGHT AND THE ENGINE WENT TO FULL SPEED. THE TRUCK HIT A PALM TREE.

DRIVER'S SIDE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT GOES OUT. THE LIGHTBULB IS IN GOOD ORDER. THE PIGTAIL SHOWS SIGNS OF EXCESSIVE HEAT/SMALL FIRE, PLASTIC MELTING, CARBON IN THE METAL CONTACT ON THE LIGHTBULB AND SOCKET. THE PIGTAIL WAS REPLACED AND LASTED APPROXIMATELY ONE MONTH TO SHOW THE SAME ISSUES. I AM AFRAID OF A VEHICLE FIRE. THE VEHICLE'S STABILITRACK IS UNUSABLE, THE WARNING LIGHT IS ON. THE ISSUES HAPPEN WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND STATIONARY. THE ISSUES HAPPENED SUDDENLY DURING NORMAL CITY/HIGHWAY DRIVING. THE ISSUES ARE ONGOING AND STARTED SIX MONTHS AGO.

EXCESSIVE OIL COMSUMPTION. I CHANGE OIL AND 1000 MILES LATER MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHR COMES ON . I CHECK OIL AND IT ISN'T EVEN ON THE STICK.

CRACKED DASH ABOVE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND AT IT BAG. STARTED AT 48000 MILES. IF IN A WRECK AND AIR BAG DEPLOYS SHARDS OF DASH CAN FLY THROUGH THE AIR. THINGS CAN GET DOWN IN INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND CAUSE A SHORT WHICH CAN LEAD TO A FIRE. VEHICLE CAN BE SITTING IN A HEATED GARAGE AND IT KEEPS GETTING WORSE

I HAVE A CRACK IN MY DASHBOARD JUST ABOVE THE AIRBAG. THIS IS NOT DUE TO HEAT OR SUN THIS HAPPENED DURING THE WINTER IN ALASKA
