Emergency brake keeps engaging Power steering problem, seat belt light stays on even when buckled. Headlights are dim
WHEN GOING THE SPEED LIMIT THE TRUCK SEEMS TO WANT TO CROSS OVER LANES JUST BY CROSSING A DIP. IT FEELS FLOATY ON THE ROAD ANOTHER WORDS IT DOESN'T WANT TO STAY IN ITS OWN LANE
EXTREME RUST ON UNDER CARRAGE OF VEHICLE. BRAKE LINES RUSTED OUT CAUSING BRAKE FAILURE FRAME RUSTED OUT AT REAR LEAF SPRINGS AND FRAME RAIL CROSS MEMBERS. REAR SHOCK HANGERS RUSTED OFF VEHICLE. FRAME RUSTED SO BAD THAT IT PROHIBITS TOUNG OF ANY TYPE OF TRAILER. TOYOTA HAD SAME PROBLEM AND THEY HAD TO DO A RECALL SO WHY HAS GM NOT HAD TO DO THE SAME THING. IT IS A VERY LARGE SAFETY ISSUE AFFECTING MANY VEHICLES ON THE HWY TODAY.
SILVERADO 1500 4WD STEERING GEAR BOX DEFECT IN THAT IT STARTS TO GRIND AND THREATENS FREEZE UP AND POWER STEERING LOSS USUALLY WHEN ATTEMPTING LEFT TURN. DEALER HAS ALREADY REPLACED 2 UNITS. THE ORIGINAL WAS REPLACED AT 81,000 MILES. THE SECOND AT 96,000 AND NOW IT'S BAD AGAIN AT 120,000 MILES. DEALER STATES THAT IT IS A DESIGN DEFECT THAT WAS CORRECTED FOR THE 2008 MODELS. PICTURE MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN WITH FULL POWER STEERING BUT IF YOU TURN LEFT IT WILL GRIND AND WINE AT FIRST, GRADUATING TO TRYING TO MAKE THE LEFT TURN AS IF THE ENGINE HAD DIED OUT. THAT'S HOW BAD IT GETS. IT WILL, AND I'M SURE, IT ALREADY HAS CAUSED ACCIDENT PROBLEMS. QUESTION IS, WHY DID THE ORIGINAL STEERING BOX LAST MORE THAN 80,000 MILES BUT THE REPLACEMENTS BARELY MAKE 15,000 MILES?? MIND YOU THESE ARE OEM REPLACEMENTS DONE BY THE DEALER. FURTHERMORE,...
THE VEHICLE MADE A RATTLING SOUND WHILE DRIVING AND THE WHEELS FELT UNSTABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THE RATTLING WAS COMING FROM THE INTERMEDIATE SHAFT. *NLM
