Chevrolet Silverado 2001, replaced timing chain at 55,000 miles. The consumer stated when he attempted to apply the brakes, the vehicle skidded and would not stop and when it occurred the vehicle made a noise. The consumer was told it was just the anti-lock brakes kicking in. The consumer also stated when the roads were wet and he applied the accelerator from a stop the back tire would spin out.

Engine makes a tapping sound when cold or warm. Dealer said it was called a piston slap. Dealer also said that there was no fix for the situation at this time and that it would not hurt the performance of the engine. I should not have to hear engine noise on a new vehicle.

Engine noise on acceleration was told by dealer several times normal condition then was presented a technical bulletin states noise on acceleration caused by balance shaft condition there is no fix.

Engine tapping noise when first started. Dealer says this is normal. I have been a mechanic for 20 years and this is not a normal engine sound.

Engine noise, valve ticking at low speed or after sitting for short period of time. Chevrolet says it knows about the problem but has now fix. 2001 Silverado's with new head design do not have same problem.

The engine started knocking upon cold start up at approx. Eight thousand miles, and a problem started with a engine pinging noise(valve clatter) at the same mileage. The problems were reported to the dealer several times in which no attempt for correction was made on repairing the engine knock. The valve clatter problem has been worked on more than three times with no solution. Now the problem is deemed unrepairable or as the dealer states "normal" as my reply is that the truck did not make any noise untill 8,000 miles, if the noise is normal why did it take 8,ooo miles for the problem to arrise. At the present time the engine knocks on both hot and cold start and valve clatter is experienced upon acceleration, constant speeds, and is the worst when trying to tow a trailer of less than 30% of vehicles max gvwr. The second problem is the bumping, knocking loose steering sensation felt in the steering wheel. This problem has also been worked on several times with no solution. I have recently been informed that there are new intermediate steering shaft parts that are suppose to fix my problem, but I am not being told of a completion or delivery date on this correction. My concern is that the steering is going to malfunction causing a accident. I have contacted the dealership many times with my concerns. The only replies I have received are "yes there is a problem, but we don't know how to fix it, or will call you!" it seems to me that a manufacturer that can design and manufacturer millions of vehicles should know how to fix what they produce.

Upon a cold start, engine would make noise. Possible problems with engine.
