Parking brake sticks: I bought vehicle august 2000. Was called to active duty and deployed with military for 1 year beginning january 2003. Yes, that's less than the 3 year warranty. My wife used the vehicle occasionally and I have 31,000 miles on the truck and upon returning, the parking brake sticks. I have burnt out 2 sets or rear pads and rotors. Additionally, the slow and intermittent portion of the windshield wiper stopped working and the reverse/backup lights don't work. I contacted the dealer and gm and they both told me "too bad."
2000 Chevrolet Silverado visibility complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 28 of 28, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Right window went down and never was able to make it close. Upon taking it to the dealership for repair I was informed that part #15095844 regulator failed. This window was never hardly used. Milage is not a factor but dealer would not replace it. Have contacted gm and they so much as told me to go away they can not help. Talking to the parts dept. They said that they are seeing more of these regulators failing. Dt
Consumer state while using windshield wiper without any indication wiper would stop working consumer would have to tap windshield wiper motor box to return to normal use. Please provide further information.
Both daytime running light bulb failed. Throttle body pedal hard to push down/replaced, steering shaft noise/replaced, replaced washer fluid tank, replaced propeller shaft.
There is a wire harness showing from under steering wheel til that has a short circuit and occasionally sparks. Also, this has caused problems with reading fuel indicator/ odometer/ gear indicator/ air conditioner and heater.
While defrosting front windshield, a large crack appeared across the windshield. Dealer and manufacturer were not notified at this time. *ak
Engine check light keeps coming on, then vehicle starts to lose power, this has happened while on highway, and it is very unsafe. *ak. Consumer stated the instrument panel is loose causing rattling noise from passenger side air bag area and top of instrumental panel, the third brake light is inoperative and drivers window power regulator failed causing noise, the fuel filter was replaced.
Vehicle is pulling to left and right upon braking. Consumer is especially concerned about drifting to left because of traffic. *ak driver side window molding comes loose when the window rolls down. Right front wheel and spare wheel are bent. Cruise control is inoperative at times. Right rear axle experienced a leak. Blower is noisy on low speeds.
Popping noise and slack in front drive train - dealer cannot find problem after repeated attempts. Finally found noise problem around dash - windshield is not glued in and could come out at any time - very dissatisfied with purchase. Dealership refuses to try and locate popping noise any further as they have been unable to locate the problem.
Tires had made a lot of noise from begining after buying vehicle. Currently, tires were wearing from inside out where aligment could not fix problem.*ak consumer did not give any inormation regarding tire type or size. Oil light illuminated, dealer put in a new valve, oil problem still continued, oil was found covering and underneath the chassis. Consumer states windows rattle.
The heater does not distribute adequate amounts of heat into the passenger's footwell. With the heater at max. Temp and airflow and the flow all directed to the floor, the driver was baking but the passenger's feet needed a blanket wrapped around them to keep them somewhat comfortable with outside temperatures in the the 12 degree area. This went on from colorado to tennessee and back over christmas. This is ridiculous. The dealer contacted gm's tech. Support, the truck was checked; "the heater is performing to specs."!!!! Now I'm told to keep working with the dealer. What am I supposed to keep working with since they've been told by gm that everything is ok? Gm's customer assistance notes that there is a gm "poor heater performance review" currently going on within gm but offers no other hope of a solution. This is very frustrating and real cold on long trips when I should be able to get comfortable. Please light a fire under gm since I haven't been able to.
Dealer refused to replace mirror even though truck under warranity and I have additional coverage.
Passenger's side window was down a third. Dog stuck head outside of the window, window went up, and dog's neck almost got caught inside of the window. Complaint from the consumer said that the tahoe had a lock out bottom too close that locked the windows.

Intermittently windshield wipers become inoperable, obstructing the view of the driver. Dealer has repaired the windshield wipers twice, and problem has reoccurred.
