I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE DISTRIBUTOR CAP AND ROTOR BUG OFTEN DUE TO CORROSION AFTER LESS THAN 1000 MILES. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. THE DEALERSHIP INSTALLED COVER OVER THE AC LINE AND THAT HAD LITTLE EFFECT. IT IS MY BELIEF THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURE FLAW. *TR
FRAME RUST ENOUGH TO VOID INSPECTION. RUST NOTICED WITHIN A YEAR AFTER PURCHASE. VEHICLE NOW FAILS INSPECTION. I HAVE ANOTHER OLDER GM VEHICLE HOUSED IN THE SAME PLACE, DRIVEN IN THE SAME AREA WITH DOUBLE THE MILEAGE AND THREE YEARS OLDER WITHOUT THIS ISSUE. I FEEL IT IS DESIGN/MATERIALS ISSUE. *JS
IN-DASH GEAR SELECTOR LIGHT IS INOPERABLE. LIGHT STOPPED BURNING FOR NO REASON AND DURING THE DAY TIME CAN NOT SEE WHAT GEAR THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY IN. THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT VEHICLE COULD NOT BE IN PARK AND COULD ROLL AWAY FROM VEHICLE OPERATOR WHEN IT WAS THOUGHT TO BE IN A PARKED POSITION. TO FIX THE LIGHT ONE LARGE PART THAT COVERS MULTIPLE DASH COMPONENTS IS REPLACED NOT JUST A SINGLE COMPONENT AND THIS PART COSTS HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS EVEN IF OTHER COMPONENTS ARE WORKING FINE. THIS COMPONENT ALSO HAS TO BE INSTALLED BY A DEALERSHIP SINCE IT COVERS THE ODOMETER. *TR
CONSTANT WIND NOISE FROM HOOD HINGE FLAPS AND TOP WINDSHIELD SEAL AT 50 AND ABOVE. ALSO DRIVER DOOR SEAL SQUEALS. I REPAIRED THE FLAPPING NOISES MYSELF AFTER THE DEALER TRIED 6 TIMES AND SAID IT WAS MY BUG DEFLECTOR. THE DOOR SEAL WAS REPLACED AFTER 6 TRIPS AND IS WORSE NOW THAN THEN. I REPAIRED THIS AS WELL AS I COULD. THEY REPLACED 1 OF 3 SEALS. AFTER 6 VISITS FOR MY GOODYEAR TIRES (NOTHING FOUND WRONG AGAIN) THEY DECIDE TO REPLACE THEM. IT TOOK 2 WEEKS TO GET TIRES AND THEN THEY REPLACED 2. THE TRANS IS CLUNKER AND HAS COMPUTER SOFTWARE ISSUES CAUSING SHIFTING PROBLEMS AND DEALER CAN NOT DUPLICATE. THE COMPUTER THINKS IT IS OK SO NO CODES WILL BE STORED. I ALSO POINTED OUT THE GM TSB'S TO THEM ON THIS PROBLEM. I MAY AS WELL GO TO THE ZOO FOR SERVICE AT LEAST I GET...
PAINT OVER ENTIRE TRUCK IS VERY THIN AND CHIPS AND SCRATCHES DOWN TO THE METAL CAUSED BY SUCH THINGS AS SNOW BETWEEN TAILGATE AND BED. HAVE 3 OLDER CHEVROLET TRUCKS AND NONE OF THE OTHERS HAVE THIS PROBLEM. *AK
THE ODOMETER SYSTEM FAILED. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THIS WAS DUE TO A FAILURE AT THE TIME OF MANUFACTURING. *AK *SCC *JB
