2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

AT 72K MILES THE TORGUE CONVERTER ON MY 2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO LTZ REQUIRED REPLACEMENT AT AN OUT OF THE POCKET EXPENSE OF $4486. THE AUTO REPAIR GARAGE WHERE I HAD THE WORK DONE REPORTED THEY HAVE SEEN MULTIPLE VEHICLES WITH THIS TRANSMISSION COMING IN LATELY WITH AROUND THE SAME MILEAGE (72K) HAVING THIS ISSUE. I DRIVE MOSTLY AROUND TOWN (NOT MUCH HIGHWAY), HEARD A GRINDING SOUND AND CAUGHT IT EARLY BEFORE LOSING ANY GEARS. UNFORTUNATELY, SOME VEHICLES HAVE ACTUALLY LOST GEARS. SOUNDS DANGEROUS.

SERVICE TRAILER BRAKE SYSTEM INDICATOR.IF VEHICLE EXOERIENCES THIS CONDITION AND STALLS WHILE IN MOTION, THERE COULD BE AN INCREASED RISK OF A VEHICLE CRASH.

TRUCK DISPLAYS LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND SHUTS OFF EVERYTHING ELECTRICAL. WHEN I'M DRIVING AT ANY SPEEDS AND TURN STEERING WAY TO FAST TO EITHER SIDE I'LL GET MESSAGE STABILITY TRAK TURNED OFF AND FOLLOWED BY RADIO LOSING POWER. SOMETIMES TRUCK SHUTS OFF COMPLETELY AND SOMETIMES TRUCK JUST ACTS LIKE IT WANTS TO SHUT OFF BUT REMAINS ON. THERE'S TIMES WHERE I'LL GET THE MESSAGE FOR DRIVER WINDOW TO ROLL UP AND DOWN AND WINDOWS LOSE POWER. I'VE TAKEN TRUCK TO DEALERSHIP SEVERAL OF TIMES JUST TO LOSE OUT ON MONEY EVERY TIME BECAUSE THEY HAVEN'T FIXED THE PROBLEM AND JUST KEEP CHARGING.

WITH ANY KIND OF ACCELERATION ABOVE 30 MPH, THERE IS A VIBRATION UNDER THE DRIVER SIDE FLOOR BOARD AND SEAT AND THE VEHICLE IS "SEARCHING" FOR THE CORRECT RPM WITHIN A 200 RPM RANGE. WHEN IN A PARKING LOT WITH 4X4 HI ENGAGED, THE FRONT HUBS WILL BIND WITH THE STEERING WHEEL TURNED OVER HALF WAY RIGHT OR LEFT, MAKING TIGHT TURNS DIFFICULT TO COMPLETE. I WILL BE TAKING THIS TO A DEALERSHIP TO HOPEFULLY GET DIAGNOSED AND REPAIRED. MILEAGE IS 114K

THE PAINT ON THE REAR PASSENGER AND DRIVER DOORS IS PEELING OFF. LOOKS TO ME THAT IT'S A BAD BATCH OF PAINT. IT'S PEELING OFF ON THE SAME LOCATION ON BOTH DOORS AND THIS WASN'T CAUSED BY ROCK CHIPS OR ANY TYPE OF IMPACT.

VEHICLE WILL NOT START WHILE USING THE KEY AT TIMES; AS IF THE CAR BATTERY IS DEAD. OTHER TIMES IT DOES START; WILL GO A MONTH OF NO ISSUES AND THEN STARTS DOING IT AGAIN. USING THE REMOTE START WORKS FINE.

BRAKES BECOME HARD AT LOW SPEED AND WHEN VEHICLE IS AT A COMPLETE STOP. BRAKES WORK NORMALLY AT HIGHER RPM, GETS WORSE DRIVING IN REVERSE OR JUST LETTING VEHICLE CREEP FORWARD.

I WAS HIT IN THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE OF MY TRUCK ON THE HIGHWAY AND ENDED UP HITTING THE WALL IT WILL NEED A BALLJOINT, CONTROL ARM, FENDER,HOOD AND PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT, STILL NEEDS FIXED BUT IT ONLY HAS 60K MILES ON IT

DRIVING DOWN HILL AT 25 MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I LOST CONTROL OF MY POWER STEERING. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO STOP JUST BEFORE HITTING AN EMBANKMENT. THE REPAIR REQUIRES A COMPLETE ELECTRICAL ASSIST COMPONENT. QUOTE OF $1,750.00 ON AUGUST 2017 I RECEIVED A RECALL FOR THE EPS ASSIST. THE SOFTWARE WAS COMPLETED BY KENDALL CHEVY IN AUGUST OF THAT YEAR.
