2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

THIS PICTURE REPRESENTS SOME OF THE PAINT LOSS ON THE 2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 CREW CAB. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW AND HAVE NEVER BEEN IN THE SNOW. THERE'S NO WAY THAT A VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE PAINT PEELING OR HAVE EXPOSED METAL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE RADIO AND INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS WERE CLICKING OFF AND ON, WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO STALL AFTER MAKING A LEFT TURN. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT ON ANOTHER OCCASION, THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL AND USING THE TURN SIGNAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LOCAL DEALER MIKE REED CHEVROLET LOCATED AT 1559 E OGLETHORPE HWY, HINESVILLE, GA 31313, WHERE THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED AS OF YET. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE AND FILED A CASE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 75,000

AIR CONDITONER ISNT WORKING THERE IS MANY COMPLAITS FOR CRACKED LINES AND FAULTY BRACKETS

BREAKING AT LOW SPEED IN TRAFFIC OR A PARKING LOT THE BREAKS GRAB, SKIP AND THE TRUCK VIBRATES BEFORE COMING TO A STOP. RETURNED TRUCK TO GLENDORA CHEVROLET WHERE PURCHASED. THEY PERFORMED RECALL N192268490, UPDATED EBCM, WCC:28YN28468172 PER RECEIPT THEY GAVE ME. VACUUM PUMP WAS REPLACED. ALL THIS DID NOT CORRECT THE BREAK PROBLEM TO THIS DAY. PLEASE ADVISE.

THE SEAT SHIFTS DURING A RIGHT AND/OR LEFT TURN. I WAS TOLD AT THE DEALERSHIP, THIS WAS A PROBLEM, HOWEVER THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL. I JERK WITH THE SEAT DURING THE TURNS. I AM AFRAID THAT IF I HAVE AN ACCIDENT OR THE TRUCK ROLLS OVER IN AN ACCIDENT THE SEAT WILL NOT BE SECURE AND MAY CRUSH ME OR THE DRIVER.

I WAS ON A FAMILY TRIP WITH MY WIFE AND KIDS AND THE ENGINE TEMPERATURE RAISED AND SYSTEM SAID TO IDLE ENGINE UNTIL IT COOLED DOWN. I WAS ABLE TO COOL THE ENGINE DOWN AND GET THE TRUCK HOME. THE CHEVROLET DEALER DIAGNOSED A COOLANT LEAK AT THE RADIATOR. SERVICE BULLETIN PI1513F REFERS TO THIS AS BEING CAUSED BY A FAULTY THERMOSTAT WHICH RESULTS IN FRACTURES IN THE RADIATOR. "THIS CONDITION MAY BE THE RESULT OF EXCESSIVE THERMOCYCLES WITHIN THE COOLING SYSTEM CAUSED BY EXCESSIVE CYCLING OF THE THERMOSTAT. THESE EXCESSIVE THERMOCYCLES WITHIN THE COOLANT SYSTEM MAY CAUSE THE TUBES TO FATIGUE, CRACK AND LEAK AT THE RADIATOR HEADERS. TO CORRECT THIS CONDITION, A NEW THERMOSTAT HAS BEEN DESIGNED THAT ELIMINATES THE THERMOSTATS EXCESSIVE CYCLING." THE QUOTED COST TO REPLACE THE RADIATOR AND THERMOSTAT AT THE DEALER IS $1800 GM HAS APPARENTLY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY TO 100000 MILES UNDER A SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT ON THE 2014 MODELS, BUT NOT THE OTHER AFFECTED MODEL YEARS.

AT LOWER SPEEDS AND IDLE THE POWER STEERING FAILS ALONG WITH CERTAIN ELECTRICAL DEVICES ON THE VEHICLE.

WHEN I STEP ON THE BRAKES IT GETS REALLY HARD AND WILL NOT STOP. IT HAPPENED TO ME IN A PARKING LOT. I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT AND DID NOT STOP. THEN WHEN I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD I REAR-ENDED SOMEONE AND I WAS NOT DRIVING VERY FAST. MY CONCERN IS THAT IF A CHILD OR CAR RUNS OUT IN FRONT OF ME I WIL NOT BE ABLE TO STOP. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES NOW. I HAVE PAID MECHANICS TO REPLACE MY BRAKE PADS, CALIPERS, DISC'S BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO HURT MYSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE.

I AM SEEING EXTREME AMOUNT OF CLEARCOAT PEELING ALL AROUND VEHICLE. APPEARS TO BE SPECIFIC TO THIS VEHICLE PAINT PROCESS. PROFESSIONAL PAINT SHOP SAYS POOR PAINT JOB. DEALER WON'T HELP. GM WON'T HELP. I SEE MANY OTHERS ONLINE THAT HAVE SAME PROBLEM. MY TRUCK IS IN PERFECT CONDITION. I OWN OTHER GM CARS WITH NO PROBLEMS. I WANT HELP FROM DEALER TO FIX (COLLEGE CHEVROLET, ALBION, MI 49224).
