All Engine And Engine Cooling Complaints
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXHIBITED AN ABNORMAL KNOCKING FROM THE ENGINE. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT FUEL WAS LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE ABNORMALLY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED BUT DENIED ANY ASSISTANCE WITH REPAIRS TO THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 150,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
ABOUT 1 MONTH AFTER BUYING A NEW 2004 SILVERADO IT STARTED SURGING VILOENTLY WHEN COLD. IT IS INCONSISTANT, SOMETIMES LASTS FOR BLOCKS. I ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED LAST WEEK WHILE TRYIG TO CONTROL THE TRUCK. GM REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING, SAYING THERE IS NO DIAGNOSIS CODES SET AND THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF SILVERADO`S SURGING. THEY CLASS IT AS A FEATURE AND SAY I NEED TO FEATHER THE CLUTCH. FEATHERING THE CLUTCH IN TRAFFIC IS A GOOD WAY TO GET KILLED. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON ABOUT 4 MONTHS NOW. I BELIEVE THEY KNOW WHAT IS WRONG AND IT IS HAPPENING WITH MORE THEN JUST MY ONE TRUCK; BUT THEY DON'T WANT TO SPEND THE MONEY TO FIX IT.
WHILE PULLING INSIDE OF THE GARAGE THE CONSUMER APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. THE VEHICLE STOPPED BY HITTING THE HOUSE WALL. THE BRAKING BEFORE THE CRASH CAUSED THE ABS AND THE ENGINE LIGHTS TO APPEAR ON THE DASHBOARD WHICH REMAINED ON. THE CONSUMER WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION. THE MECHANIC INFORMED THE DRIVER THAT THE PROBLEM COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. *JB
THE VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN AND LURCHED FORWARD WHEN IT WAS COLD AND DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER. THIS MADE IT DIFFICULT FOR DRIVER TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, INCREASING THE CHANCE OF A CRASH. TOOK TO DEALER FOR CHECKUP, BUT RESULTS SHOWED THAT THE CAUSE WAS UNDETERMINED.*AK
