Chevrolet Silverado 1500

"one lifter failure collapsed. Gm would only replace right bank of lifters and only paid 15% of that cost. Replacement cost was very high and GM would not cover replacing left bank and related parts at all. Yes truck was past warranty by time, but way under in mileage...it wasn't driven much for three years during Covid."

"Valve lifter collapse: it's a known engine design problem for Chevrolet. Knocking began at the end of a 3k mile road trip, with 70k miles, 8 yrs old. The 100k/ 5yr warranty didn't cover it, and effectively penalized us for not driving more."

"The engine broke valves at 96000 miles"

"Exhaust rotted at joints with mufflers. Only 55000 miles. Factory cost over $1000, replaced with aftermarket stainless steel system for under $400."

"Replaced LF upper control arm; both front lower ball joints; and spark plugs and wires"

"Coolant fan kept getting stuck on"

"Rainwater enters the cab somewhere around the roofline. It collects and will drip over the front seat passenger. Weve taken it to three shops, including the dealer we bought it from, no one can find the source of the leak, and the dealer reported no leak despite water stains on the headliner. Ugh. We wont buy a CHEVROLET again."

"Entire dash rattles and squeaks, cannot find a source nor remedy"

"Around the middle console squears when your arm is on it."

"Power door lock (driver's door) is inoperable. First happened one year ago. Have not had it repaired."

"System did strange things for a few years, locks would unlock, lights would flash, , never did it for the dealer. After I ask them to go over the ground system the dead short was found. If they still offered the v6 option I would buy a new one. May try a ridge line next due to its power train"

"The driver seat has some type of loose hardware inside that makes noise when making a turn and you can feel the problem while driving!"

"The cylinder deactivation system developed a noise caused by collapsed lifters. Cost to repair is $5000. I deactivated the system with aftermarket tool and now operates without cylinder deactivation./"

"Broke while at high altitudes and low temperatures."

"Truck vibration at highway speeds Changed 3 months ago"

"caliper stuck causing brake wear"

"Oil cooler line leaking, dealer found it during an oil change. Apparently this is a common problem with the oil cooler line at a crimp where it transitions from a hard line to a hose."

"Truck had vibration at various speeds. Transmission shop analyzed the issue and said the torque converter was starting to fail and suggested rebuilding the transmission at the same time due to the history of this year/make and model of truck and you need to inspect the transmission when a torque converter is failing."

"Both driveshafts were found to be out of balance."
