I was driving down local road, when there was a three car accident way ahead. I sowed right down, may 25-30 MPH as we came up on it, realizing as I went to slow down more, my brake pedal went to floor. I made it home and parked. My boyfriend looked at it next morning, I had no brake fluid left, one of the lines was so corroded the fluid leaked all over the driveway. I had recently had my brakes done and inspection within the past month. I bought the truck brand new, and have had a lot of issues with it. Including ABS that was previously recalled, and never worked after it was replaced, which I did complain about, he interior set material needed replacing, the tail gate cables and hinges are broke, the dealer says there is no recall on them. A sensor went in gas tank, the drivers side mirror fell off, the window cable on drivers side has been replaced twice, passenger side once, the list goes on and on. Like I said, I bought it brand new off the lot, traded in older chevy silverado, paid cash with gm discount. I love my truck, but think it has had way too many problems. I have definitely read a lot of complaints on the corroded gas lines among other issues and would hope chevy would stand behind their products.

Tl*the contact owns a 2002 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact received a recall notice for the federal safety agency campaign id number (service brakes, hydraulic:antilock). The dealer cleaned the speed sensor, but did not replace any parts. The failure has recurred and the brakes stick when attempting to stop the vehicle at low speeds. On the fourth trip to the dealer, the contact was informed that no failures could be found. She is unsure if the dealer will replace or clean the sensor, but she requested that it be replaced. In addition, the intermediate steering shaft was replaced with a re-manufactured part in july of 2005 at 18,031 miles. In november of 2006, at 29,650 miles, the steering shaft was lubed. In april of 2008, at 43,194 miles, the steering shaft was replaced a second time. Currently, at 56,000 miles, the vehicle is still experiencing issues. The dealer must check and replace the shaft failures every 25,000 miles. Lastly, the rear brake rotors were resurfaced four times and all of the window regulators have to be replaced. The vehicle is currently at the dealer to have all of the issues repaired. The failure mileage was 18,031. Updated 07/02/09.

I had a problem with my left side drivers door window. I lowered it at a mcdonald's drive thru window, and it made a grinding sound and would not hardly roll up. I took my hand and helped it up into place. I paid for the repair at a local repair shop out of my own pocket. The cable on the window regulator was bad. I had to get a new one from c&o motors ( chevrolet dealer) and cross lanes tire and auto repair shop made the repairs for me.
