I JUST PURCHASED A 2007 CHEVROLET 1500 4/4 IN MAY. WHEN I PUT THE HITCH INTO THE RECEIVER I FOUND IT TO BE VERY LOOSE. THE FACTORY TOWING RECEIVER MEASURED 2-1/4 INCHES. THE FACTORY STANDARD HAS BEEN 2-1/16 FOR YEARS. IN 2006 CHEVERLOT MADE THIS CHANGE. THE 2006 MODELS WERE STARTING TO SPLIT IN THE PIN HOLES ,AND IT WILL ONLY BE A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL THE RECEIVER FAIL, CAUSING TRAILERS TOO SEPARATE FROM THE TOW VECHILE. THE RECEIVERS WERE EXTREMELY SLOPPY IN BOTH DIRECTION'S, CAUSING UNDO STRAIN ON THE 5/8 HITCH PIN. THANKS FOR LOOKING INTO THIS. *AK

2007 SILVERADO NEW BODY STYLE. UPON TAKING DELIVERY FROM THE DEALER I NOTICED A MASSIVE DISTORTION IN THE WINDSHIELD. DEALER HAS ORDERED A NEW ONE TO REPLACE IT. HOPEFULLY IT'S JUST AN ISOLATED PROBLEM.*AK

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. SOON AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED ON AUGUST 8, 2006, THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE VEHICLE ITSELF BEGAN TO BOUNCE AND SHAKE. WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL IN EITHER DIRECTION, THE STEERING WHEEL FEELS AS IF IT WILL DETACH. THE MORE THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN, THE WORSE THE FAILURE BECOMES. ON SEPTEMBER 16, 2006, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO FIND ANY FAILURE BUT STATED THAT IT WAS THE CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE. ON JUNE 6, 2006, WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE STEERING WHEEL OPERATED ON ITS OWN AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO CRASH INTO A POLE. THE SPEED AT THE TIME OF THE CRASH WAS 5 MPH.

WE HAVE A NEW 2007 CHEVROLET SILVERADO THAT HAS BEEN A PROBLEM. WHEN YOU GAVE IT GAS IT WOULD SHIFT REAL HARD, WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE SEALS IN THE TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE TRUCK WAS IN THE SHOP 2 OR 3 DAYS FOR THAT. THE HARD SHIFTING WAS STILL THERE. WE CONTINUED TO DRIVE IT. A COUPLE DAYS LATER MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING THE TRUCK, AND IT STALLED ON HIM WHILE DRIVING. WE DROVE IT FOR ABOUT A WEEK LIKE THAT UNTIL I CALLED GMAC TO REPORT TO THEM WHAT WAS GOING ON WITH THE TRUCK. THE WOMEN I TALKED WITH TOLD ME IT WAS A SAFTEY ISSUE AND NEEDED TO BE TAKEN INTO THE DEALERSHIP.WE TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP EVERYTIME THE TRUCK WOULD STALL WHILE DRIVING AND NOTHING SHOWED UP ON ANY DASHBOARD DISPLAYS. WHEN THE DEALERSHIP HAD IT,THEY HOOKED A COMPUTER TO IT AND DROVE IT. IT DID STALLED ON THEM, AND THEIR COMPUTER REGISTERED A FAILURE, BUT IT SHOWED NO CODES. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY HAD TO CONTACT GM TO FIND OUT WHAT TO DO. WE NEEDED OUR TRUCK BY FRIDAY BECAUSE OF PRIOR PLANS. WE CALLED GMAC COMPLAINT LINE ON THURSDAY TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN. WE TALKED WITH THE COMPLAINT DEPARTMENT AS WELL AS THEIR SAFTEY DEPARMENT EXPLAINING EVERYTHING THAT WAS GOING ON AND THAT WE NEEDED THETRUCK. THEY SAID THERE WAS REALLY NOTHING THEY COULD DO, AND PRETTY MUCH TOLD US WE COULD PICK THETRUCK UP, KNOWING IT WAS ALREADY NOTED AS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. ON FRIDAY THE DEALERSHIP PUT A NEW COMPUTER IN IT, AND MY HUSBAND PICKED IT UP. ON SATURDAY MY HUSBAND AND I WERE DRIVING ON I-75 IN THE PASSING LANE GOING 75 MPH AND THE TRUCK QUIT ON US. WE ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT WITH A JEEP, ALONG WITH ALMOST GOING DOWN A HILL. I CALLED GMAC RIGHT AWAY TO LET THEM KNOW WHAT HAPPENED, ALONG WITH LETTING THEM KNOW THAT THE COMPUTER WASN'T THE PROBLEM. THIS TRUCK WAS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. I'VE EXPLAINED MY CONCERNS WITH GMC OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS, AND THEY DIDN'T WANT TO HELP US AT ALL.*AK
