2008 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

DRIVER SIDE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT WORK WITH KEYFOB OR SWITCH ON THE EITHER DOOR. *TR

I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY 2008 CHEVY SILVERADO EXTEND CAB 4.8L ENGINE LIKE ELECTRICAL,DOORS,AIR BAGS,EQUIPMENT, AND LOT OF THINGS? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE LEAF SPRING WAS FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 88,000.

THERE IS A CRACK IN MY DASHBOARD COMING OUT OF THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG. I BELIEVE THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS IF IT EVER DEPLOYS. *TR

THE RIGHT REAR DOOR ACTUATOR WENT OUT NOT ALLOWING THE DOOR TO LOCK OR UNLOCK, OTHER THAN MANUALLY. NOT ONLY IS THIS A THEFT ISSUE, BUT A SAFETY ISSUE AS WELL. KIDS WERE ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR WHILE DRIVING WHICH IS AN APPARENT SAFETY PROBLEM AND AFTER READING NUMEROUS OTHER REPORTS OF THIS SAME PROBLEM OCCURRING, IT IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF/RECALLED. THIS IS APPARENTLY DUE TO A CHEAP MOTOR MADE OUT OF CHINA AND IS A FAIRLY EASY ISSUE TO RESOLVE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. WHILE PARKED, THE CONTACT NOTICED FLUID LEAKING FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING WHERE THE TECHNICIAN ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE TRANSMISSION LINES WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED DUE TO CORROSION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,000.

THE REAR DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK SO YOU CAN EXIT THE VEHICLE IN THE EVEN OF A CRASH. *TR

DRIVER AND REAR PASSENGER LOCKS DO NOT WORK. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME NOW THAT THESE DONT WORK. FIRST IT WAS THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE, NOW ITS THE SAME SIDE BUT REAR DOOR. IT IS ANNOYING NOT HAVING ACCES TO THE DOORS VIA KEYLESS ENTRY. IT WAS A ONE OF THE REASON WHY I BOUGHT A KEYLESS ENTRY FOR SAFETY REASON FOR WOMEN. ALSO, I HAVE A GRANDSON WHO RIDES WITH ME OCCASIONALLY, AND IF EMERGENCY OCCURRED, I FEAR HE COULD BE TRAPPED AS I WOULD HAVE TO INSERT KEY TO UNLOCK DRIVER DOOR OR WORSE. THE REAR DOOR HAS NO WAY TO INSERT ANY KEY INTO DOOR. HOW DO YOU EXPECT ME TO SAVE MY CHILD IF I CAN'T EVEN OPEN IT. I HAVE TO LOWER MY DRIVER SIDE SEAT BACK AND REACH FAR BACK TO WHERE LOCKS WERE PLACED AND MANUALLY UNLOCK THE BACK DOOR. RECALL ALL TRUCKS BACK AND REPLACE LOCKS IN THEM. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH SAFETY AND CHILDREN SAFETY!!!! THIS WOULD MAKE 3 LOCKS. ONE WHEN NEW PURCHASE VEHICLE, 2 REPLACED BY DEALER AND NOW 3RD ITS BROKEN AGAIN!!!! *KB

MY 1500 SERIES TRUCK HAS CHIRPING NOISE COMING FROM ENGINE. CURRENTLY HAS 80K MILES AND NOISE IS NOT COMING FROM PULLEY OR BELTS AS OUR MECHANIC HAS REPLACED THEM AND NOISE STILL SOUNDS. NOISE IS COMING FROM ENGINE. TAKING VEHICLE TO DEALER. THIS NOISE IS ANNOYING! *KB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 5 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE ABNORMALLY ACCELERATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 23,050.
