Takata recall - have been stranded numerous times as it has appeared to be the fuel pump not getting gas to start the car. Sometime can hear pump running as I have replace 3-4 pumps since 2012 or 13. Some time beating under tank helps. There seem to be numerous complaints about this problem. Security light flashing and start sometime when it is reset. Sounds wonderful when it runs. Can it be the computer? Towed to a safe location after not starting and diagnostic technician show 10% fuel pressure. I parked went in to make a payment at a business and would not start for 4 days

Ignition switch won't start engine. Replaced switch and had no improvement. Turning key several times may result in starting or not. There seems to be a delay in ignition when it does start. An on-line review shows I'm not the only one with this problem. I have safety concerns when I or my wife uses vehicle to shop and risks being subject to predators in parking lots when truck won't start.

On december 19th 2013 was at a class for work about 65 miles from home, when came out of class and truck would not start keep getting security light flashing in the information window. Later found out this cut the gas of from someone stealing the vehicle, but I had the original key to the truck. Had to have vehicle towed back to my home 65 miles away. A certified mechanic looked at the truck for me and said he believed he had fixed it by replacing the ignition wiring harness. Truck worked great until recent I was traveling down a the highway at 65mph and the key to the vehicle fell out of the ignition onto the floor, lucky for me the vehicle stayed running. I have recently been looking at the ignition and have found that any position that the key is in rather it be running or auxiliary the key can be removed from the ignition. Also the truck is back to showing the security light flashing in the information center and truck will not start. I have to leave the key in the on position and wait 10 minutes before the truck will start. This seems to be a problem with chevy!!!!!!!

The vehicle will not start due to a problem with security system or pass lock.I sometimes have to wait up to 2 hours before the vehicle will start.

My 2002 chevy silverado has a no start problem. The truck has always started on first use but after it has been driven and shut off, many times it does not restart. It has happened in all types of weather and and even if only runs for a short period. There is no rhyme or reason to it. Sometimes it starts and sometimes it doesn't. After the truck sits for about 2 hours, it usually starts again. I have taken it into the chevy dealerand the starter was replaced. This did not cure the problem. Several months ago they replaced the parking switch and connectors. The problem is still occurring and more often. I have taken it to the dealer at least 5 other times and they cannot identify the problem. I cannot drive the truck without worrying that I will be stranded everytime I turn it off.
