I BOUGHT A NEW CHEVY SILVERADO 1500 4X4 IN JULY OF 2001. I DON'T DRIVE IT THAT MUCH, AND WHEN I DO, IT IS MOSTLY FREEWAY MILES. ABOUT 5 TIMES/YEAR I'LL TOW A LIGHT BOAT TO PUGET SOUND, AND AFTER COMING BACK ALWAYS HOSE OFF THE BOAT, TRAILER, AND SALT WATER EXPOSED AREA OF THE TRUCK. IN 2004 AT 6770 MILES, THE REAR ROTORS, CALIPERS AND PADS WERE RUINED (UNDER WARRANTY--CAUSE DETERMINED TO BE DEBRIS CAUGHT UP IN MECHANISM). GOOD CHEVROLET FIXED PERFECTLY. NOW IN MARCH 2008 AT ONLY 18,700 MILES (12K MILES ON NEW BRAKES), THE REAR BRAKES NEED TO BE COMPLETELY REBUILT. GOOD IS SAYING THE CAUSE IS SALT WATER. AND OF COURSE THE WARRANTY IS LONG OVER----LOOKING AT $2000 TO FIX. I SAY HOGWASH! BRAKES SHOULD NOT FALL APART AFTER 12,000 GENTLE MILES. I DON'T FOUR WHEEL DRIVE EXCEPT ON RARE OCCASION TO GET OVER THE MOUNTAIN PASS---AND THAT'S ON SNOW. I AM EASY WITH THIS TRUCK. I DON'T SPEED AROUND AND SLAM ON THE BRAKES EVER. NEVER. I AM PRETTY SURE THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. JUST GOOGLED UP A SIMILAR CASE OF A 2002 SILVERADO IN COLORADO WITH 28,000 MILES AND COMPLETE BRAKE FAILURE DUE TO RUST. I'LL REPAIR BRAKES ELSEWHERE. I'LL WAIT AND SEE IF SOME CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT COMES OF THIS. IT'S TOO BAD. THE TRUCK IS PRETTY NICE, BUT HAVING BRAKES FALL APART FOR NO GOOD REASON IS BS AND TOO EXPENSIVE, NOT TO MENTION AS WELL AS A BIG SAFETY CONCERN. *TR

PARKING BRAKE AND FUEL GAGE. I RECENTLY MOVED OVERSEAS WITH AF AND HAD TO HAVE MY VEHICLE INSPECTED FOR EUROPEAN STANDARDS. MY PARKING BREAK DID NOT WORK AT ALL. I FOUND THIS HARD TO BELIEVE SINCE I HAVE NEVER USED IT. I WAS MANDATED BY EUROPEAN LAW TO GET FIXED IN ORDER TO DRIVE IT AND PAY A $30 FOR EACH MONTH UNTIL I GOT IT FIXED. MY FUEL GAGE DOESN'T MAINTAIN HOW MUCH FUEL I HAVE IN MY GAS TANK. WHEN I HAVE A FULL OR EMPTY TANK THE GAUGE JUST RANDOMLY BOUCESS AROUND WITH THE UNKNOWN CORRECT AMOUNT. I AM CURRENTLY SETTING THE MILEAGE UNTIL I CAN FIND SOMEONE TO FIX IT AND THE PARTS I NEED. *TR

FAN WENT OUT, SHORT IN WIRING IN DOOR LOCKS AND WINDOWS, THIS A 2001, 56,000, MILES, LOW MILEAGE TRUCK TO HAVE SO MANY PROBLEMS, THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY HAD NOT SEEN THIS PROBLEM BEFORE, I LOOKED IT UP, THERE IS RUSTING AND TOTAL CORROSION OF THE BRAKE ROTORS IN MANY DIFFERENT STATES, OVER ALONG PERIOD OF TIME, EVEN WHEN THE ROTORS ARE REPLACED THEY ARE RUSTING COMPLETELY AGAIN. CHEVY IS SELLING AN EXPENSIVE TRUCK, AND THEN PROFITING AGAIN ON THE REPLACEMENT OF THE DEFECTIVE PARTS, AND MAKING A PREMIUM PROFIT ON THAT TOO.! THEY ARE NOT BOTHERING TO FIX A DEFECT THAT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A LONG TIME. VERY DISGUSTED WITH THE CHEVY SILVERADO, MY FIRST AND LAST CHEVY. *NM

ODI OPENED PE03-057 TO ASSESS PARKING BRAKE INEFFECTIVENESS IN THE SUBJECT VEHICLES.THESE VEHICLES ARE EQUIPPED WITH FOUR WHEEL DISC BRAKES THAT INCORPORATE A SINGLE-SHOE DRUM-IN-HAT PARKING BRAKE INDEPENDENT OF THE SERVICE BRAKES.COMPLAINT AND WARRANTY DATA INDICATE THAT THE PARKING BRAKE LININGS TEND TO WEAR OUT EARLY IN THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE (AT AN AVERAGE OF 24 MONTHS IN SERVICE), REDUCING THE PARKING BRAKE SYSTEM'S TORQUE BELOW THAT NEEDED TO IMMOBILIZE THE VEHICLE.GM HAS ATTRIBUTED THIS ACCELERATED WEAR TO FOREIGN MATERIAL INTRUSION AND A FAILURE OF THE BRAKE SHOE TO PROPERLY SELF-CENTER WITHIN ITS BRAKE DRUM.EFFECTIVE WITH THE START OF MY 2003 PRODUCTION, A NEWER REDUCED FORCE HOLD-DOWN CLIP WAS INTRODUCED TO FACILITATE BRAKE SHOE DISENGAGEMENT FROM THE DRUM SURFACE.THIS PART IS ALSO AVAILABLE AT THE SERVICE LEVEL FOR THE MY 1999-2002 VEHICLES.GM HAS INDICATED THAT THE PAKING BRAKE IS INTENDED TO OPERATE IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE TRANSMISSION TO IMMOBILZE PARKED VEHICLES, AND THAT IN MANY CASES, ACCELERATED PARKING BRAKE LINING WEAR IS CAUSED BY ROUGH USE, VEHICLE MODIFICATIONS, AND DRIVING WITH THE PARKING ENGAGED. ODI HAS UPGRADED THE PRELIMINARY EVALUATION TO AN ENGINEERING ANALYSIS TO GATHER FURTHER INFORMATION CONCERNING PARKING BRAKE USAGE FACTORS AND THE CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUNDING THE SEVENTEEN REPORTED VEHICLE CRASHES.
