2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 body complaints
Page 2 of 3: complaints 11 to 40 of 46, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Back window glass shattered when shutting drivers side door. Happened on the 26th of February 2022, Illinois is still very cold in February, thankfully no passengers were in the back seat. Had to drive home very slow as not to drop glass on the highway. Found a Program Bulletin on the internet, bulletin No: 14815 from a Customer Satisfaction Program that stated this could happen due to structurally weakened glass by GM. We contacted GM and they said our Vin # was not on a recall list. We contacted our Insurance company and are waiting on a new glass to be installed. No warnings of any kind.
The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that there was a water leak coming from the driver’s side floor of the vehicle and extending to the rear driver’s side floor. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic however, the cause was of the failure was not found. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 34,000.
The wax coating on the frame is falling off and the frame has rust all over. This is a manufacturing defect that Chevrolet refuses to repair under warranty. This is a known problem throughout the Silverado owners.
Truck has 98,500 miles on it. Radiator is cracked and leaking, roof leaks when raining, electric power steering randomly jerks the wheel out of your hand and almost causes you to crash.
Paint is peeling and flaking in multiple spots on my truck. Gm will not do anything about it because it's after 3 yr or 36000 miles. This is a very popular problem with this year of chevy trucks. It's all over vehicle websites. It's a bad patch of paint or primer issue. Gm told me it's maintenance after the paint warranty is up. The spots are inside my tailgate and next the windshield. Two spots where it is almost impossible for chips to happen from driving. This is a gm problem! This should be a recall. I'm sure they know there is a major problem. They need to fix it. They are losing chevy customers.
Water filtration from the shark antenna and rear third light, with possible short on a dash board and instrumental panel (already occurred more than once with no light on a instrumental panel and no function of the all gauges including speed gauge) the problem happened especially on rainy days on stationary vehicle and also in a driving conditions bolt city and highway time. The photo showing are only the recent but the problem happened several times before than now. This time was the worst ever
Paint is peeling off near back windows on both sides of the truck.
This picture represents some of the paint loss on the 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500 crew cab. I bought this vehicle brand new and have never been in the snow. There's no way that a vehicle should have paint peeling or have exposed metal.
I am seeing extreme amount of clearcoat peeling all around vehicle. Appears to be specific to this vehicle paint process. Professional paint shop says poor paint job. Dealer won't help. Gm won't help. I see many others online that have same problem. My truck is in perfect condition. I own other gm cars with no problems. I want help from dealer to fix (college chevrolet, albion, mi 49224).
Paint is pealing off doors, roof, hood, etc.
The paint is peeling/flaking off.
I own a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500 ltz in maroon red. I have noticed the clear coat throughout almost every panel of the truck is peeling in large bubbles. The hood is especially bad above the grill. Each door below the chrome strip along the lower kick plate is especially bad. Each wash of the vehicle makes it worse. Sadly, looking at each area, a small pit to the metal is visible; almost as if every rock chip/scratch is making it worse.
Recall on braking system, reported to gm dealer, waited, drove vehicle while still on recall, dealership quoted that it will be okay, ( travel to med appointments) after several attempts, finally got it in, (its fixed), continued driving it, still having problems with braking, the pedal was jumping, oh! That's normal stated the technician, I continued driving, I called the dealer ship I bought the truck from, new in 2015, explained explain to them the problem im having, (said well bring it to the dealer ship near you, did that!) again nowhere, called the dealership and asked if they would look at it, well bring it in, tech took for a ride, that's what they normally do, vibrate like that , yah. Well frustrated as I was we continued to drive, to my med appointments, well, coming back stop at an establishment, as we were pulling in the truck wouldn't stop!, and I slid right into a mental pole, damaging the entire front of our truck, the force of the hit lunged both I and my wife forward at an abrupt stop! My wife sustain a neck and back injury, my left shoulder, report to ins, and property owner, my ins pay out for the damage. I reported this to the dealer ship, we'll have to schedule an appointment.
Paint started bubbling and cracking off. It is very obvious that the paint did not adhere to the primer. I have 32000 miles. Mostly drive on the weekends because I work across the street from my house. I do not do any off-road driving. There is no reason for the paint to peel.

The paint is horrible. Chipping and flaking off of the truck.
Noticed paint is flaking on passenger rear door next to the window now the other door on the drivers side is now peeling. Dealer will not fix problem due to truck being out of warranty by 3,000 miles.
The paint on this truck has begun to peel in a couple spots. Gm isn't willing to fully cover this as they say it is out of warranty. A 4 year old vehicle shouldn't have paint issues like this, especially when it is a common occurrence with this model year.
I was driving my 2015 silverado 1500 when my daughter in the backseat noticed that's something smell like it was burning, she told me and within 10 seconds I could smell the same thing and it smelled like electrical was burning. I could see smoke coming from behind her headrest so I pulled off the road immediately and got her out of the back seat and could see it was coming from either the slide window or the defroster so I jumped in the front seat and seen the rear defroster was on and shut that off and almost immediately following me shutting that off it sounded like a gunshot went off in my back seat and the rear driver side window exploded the only thing holding it together was the factory window tint. There is all kind of glass shards in the backseat from when it shattered. I had to have my wife pick up my daughter because she is too young to sit in the front seat. So I have to put tape over the window to hold it together until the dealership contacts me back.
My paint it flaking/peeling around my wheel wells and the dealer says they cant fix it. The paint just keeps peeling and peeling I have three spots and they keep getting bigger to the point they are rusting. The problem is the paint isn't sticking to the metal/primer very cheap paint.
My truck has been modififed by either a powerful entity or by the dealership itself at the direction of a powerful entity. Truck has so many problems. I bought from same dealership out of show room and trusted them. After accident, air bags did not deploy and I couldnt figure out why. See burn marks around edges of airbags along with conductive string sew into them. Also noticed extra conductors added along with extra insulator layer. Cigarette outlets all manipulated after replaced with higher output plugs. Also found air bag sensors which are discontinuted as they belong to trucks from 2007-2009. Frame is for a 1ton truck which has beengreased front to back. Axels are clearly older and are labeled for a ck2500 (1 tom) model drive shaft and many other components have markings throughout to establish path of least resistance to guide short of electricity to driver to shock me. Modles modfified to gain access to truck. I am lucky to be alive. You guys have to see this truck in person. Way too uch to list. Dealership had it long time to do repairs. When taken back to them to figure out hwy the loud shakes, the dealershp certified shop tech stated everything is perfectl normal. That wa s a lie.eewwdduuuuuuuuuuuuuefu
Paint is constantly chipping.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While the contact was installing nerf bars on the vehicle, he noticed that the entire frame was severely rusted, including the cross members. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 82,000.
My paint is flaking away. Seems like every time I wash it the chips multiply. Chips cover the entire nody
Paint chipping, peeling off everywhere. I have had this truck for 5 months and have 15-20 spots where it is flaking or peeling off. Dealership claims they don't know of any issue yet we found where they had spot treated some chips!
Weak paint, lots of peeling in random spots. Specifically around passenger windows. Dealerships have not been willing to help or file a complaint to gm, should not pay this much for a vehicle and this happen so quickly to the paint. I am scared to wash it, as it seems to make the issue worse.
Takata recall-I was in a wreck 12-24-2017 and I was hit from behind. The bed of my truck was hit so hard by a distracted driver while I was at a stop light, that it twisted up and hit the cab of the truck. My airbags never deployed and my seatbelt never locked up. I am severely injured and am still seeking treatment for my injuries. It was over $11,000 in damages. The truck now down shifts and it sounds likie the bottom is dropping out. It also shakes when at highway speed.
I purchased a 2015 chevy silverado with the extended warranty for my son. At 44000 miles he noticed the paint peeling. I took it to the dealership where purchased and spoke with the body shop supervisor. He told me the truck had been painted twice at the factory. At this point, gm offered me 1000 dollars of the cost to repair the truck. I contacted gm executive branch and after research was told the truck had no history of being painted twice and there offer stood at 1000 dollars of the repairs. So, I went to three different body shops and they all told me the truck had been painted twice. The last shop I went to even measured the thickness of the paint to prove it. Any help appreciated.
