Six problems related to equipment have been reported for the 2009 Chevrolet Silverado. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The dash panels on the top of the dash board have completely broken I feel that if the passenger airbag were to deploy it would be a safety issue. Pieces of the dash could possibly become a hazard and injure myself or my passengers this needs to be addressed this is a very common issue among many Chevrolet vehicles.
Major oil consumption burned 4qts between oil changes truck has the 5. 3l v8 not to impressed due to the fact it only has 75000 miles on it.
Was told by dealer that impact sensor was bad. Vehicle has never been in accident. Here that this is a common problem. Sounds like gm is using a defective part. Vehicle has less than 20,000 miles. Costing me $330 for repair. Can you check into this ?.
I was driving in heavy traffic and used my left turn signal all of the lights is the truck started flashing and the doors unlocked and locked them selves. Then two miles later still in heavy traffic I flashed my lights at a truck to let him know he could safely enter my lane at which point the truck cut completely off going 35 mph in heavy traffic. This is very unsafe and I am lucky that no one was following to close.
On 6/23/13 my father was making a left turn over a 4 lane street. He was hit by a 2008 Nissan rouge going between 37-40mph on the drivers side door. My fathers truck was in motion at 4-6mph. The truck suffered extensive damage, and my dad passed away hours later at the hospital due to internal bleeding of pelvic area. The trucks drive shaft was cut in a half. The truck has a 5 star side crash safety rating, I do not understand how a car that was not even speeding crumpled the truck that badly. The frame of the truck was pushed so far back the gas and brake pedal were one.
Key comes out of the ignition while truck is running.
