2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO HD — Problems, Recalls & Safety Data

I HAVE A 2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2500 HD LTZ MODEL. THIS VEHICLE HAS PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS FOR THE LOW BEAM THAT AVE VERY INADEQUATE WHEN TRYING TO SEE IN DARK NIGHTS. THE LIGHT OUTPUT IS VERY DIM AND THE CUTOFF PATTERN IS LOW CAUSING POOR VISIBILITY TO ALMOST ZERO VISIBILITY ON WET ROADS OR DURING RAIN. USING THE FOG LIGHTS DOES HELP, BUT ALSO CAUSES ONCOMING DRIVERS TO FLASH YOU DUE TO EXTRA LIGHTS TURNED ON. I AM REALLY SHOCKED AS I HAVE ANOTHER VEHICLE WITH HID PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS AND THEY ARE FRIENDLY TO ONCOMING DRIVERS AS THEY ARE BRIGHT BUT THE LIGHTING PATTERN IS LOW. THE CHEVROLET IS NOT AN HID LIGHT AND IT IS NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH FOR THE PROJECTOR PATTERN. THIS IS OF GREAT CONCERN DUE TO THE LACK OF VISIBILITY WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. SECOND ISSUE - TURN SIGNALS AS VIEWED FROM THE VEHICLE COMING STRAIGHT ON. I HAVE NOTICED LOOKING AT OTHER CHEVROLET SILVERADO'S THAT WHEN VIEWING THE TRUCK FROM THE FRONT, YOU CAN NOT SEE IF THE TURN SIGNALS ARE ON. DUE TO CHROME ON THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AND THE HEADLIGHT - DRL - YOU CAN NOT SEE THE BLINKING TURN SIGNAL FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. SO, SOMEONE COULD EASILY TURN IN FRONT OF OR NOT SEE THE TRUCK IS TURNING DUE TO THE INABILITY TO SEE THE TURN SIGNAL FROM THE FRONT.

NEW TRUCK, 15372 MILES, NO OFF ROADING OR ROUGH SURFACE DRIVING. PULLS TO THE RIGHT. CONCERNED ABOUT SUSPENSION/STEERING FAILURE. THE VEHICLE PULLS TO THE RIGHT. TWO CHEVY DEALERS HAVE LOOKED AT THE ISSUE WITH NEGATIVE RESULTS. THERE IS NO REASON OTHER THAN MANUFACTURING ERROR THAT WOULD CAUSE THE PROBLEM. BOTH CHEVY DEALERS HAVE REPORTED THAT THE TIRES ARE IN GOOD CONDITION AND ONE DID AN ALIGNMENT. THE ALIGNMENT,I PAID FOR,DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE I USE THE VEHICLE TO PULL A TRAVEL TRAILER AS IT IS DESIGNED FOR. CHEVY,IN MY OPINION, IS NOT RESPONSIVE TO MY CONCERNS. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT LOOSING THE ABILITY TO CONTROL/STEER THE VEHICLE IF THE UNIDENTIFIED ISSUE IS NOT DISCOVERED OR RESOLVED BY CHEVY. I PROPOSE THAT DEFECTIVE PARTS,OR TIRES HAVE BEEN USED ON THE VEHICLE WHEN BUILT AND THEY ARE FAILING. SINCERELY THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE PULLED THE RIGHT. UPDATED 10/15/15*JB *TR
