TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. WHILE PARKED, THE TRAILER HITCH DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE. UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE TRAILER HITCH HAD SUSTAINED SEVERE RUSTING. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE LOCAL DEALER (KERRY CHEVROLET, 7800 ALEXANDRIA PIKE, ALEXANDRIA, KY) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE BOTH NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,500.
DEFECTIVE TOW HITCH CLASS IV RECEIVER, AFTER HEARING OF MANY PROBLEMS WITH THE FACTORY GM HITCH I INSPECTED MINE AND IT IS CRACKED IN 2 PLACES, IF I HADN'T CAUGHT IT THERE COULD HAVE BEEN A UNCOUPLING OF TRAILER DUE TO HITCH FAILURE. I WILL BE REPLACING THIS WITH AN AFTERMARKET HITCH THAT IS FROM A REPUTABLE COMPANY. HITCH IS AVAILABLE FOR REVIEW. *TR
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
