general problems of the 2005 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Unknown.

Recently replaced O2 sensor and cleared check engine status. I failed the state emissions test because the cat indicates inc or not ready,(catalytic converter). The procedure to clear this condition is dangerous and unreasonable. It calls for accelerating to 55mph or higher for 2-3 minutes then decelerating to 20 mph, not using brakes, and travel for 2 minutes then accelerating back to 55mph, repeating this process up to 5 cycles to clear the cat status. Given the drive speed this procedure would have to be done on a highway and could very likely cause a collision. This is very hazardous and should not be a requirement to complete vehicle inspection.

I went to a guys house who was selling a 2005 chevy silverado with 114,000 miles on the cluster. He didn't have the title under his name. He was title skipping. Gave him 5,000. 00 that he was asking for on 11/02/2020 then went to find the owner with his name on title. Had him sign the title over to me. Went to dmv and changed the title under my name. Then 11/28/2020 I ran a carfax report to see what maintenance has been done on my truck and it says that my truck had more than 250,000 miles on it. I confront the man that same day. And asked him if he changed the mileage he said yes. I then asked him to give 2,000. 00 because the truck is not worth 5,000. 00 he said he was not going to give me a penny. So I made a police report that same day on 11/28/2020.

When I purchased my truck the dealership promised to have it fixed,I then went to the nc dmv who handles vehicle. I had been receiving the runaround from everyone. I am sure it has been in a flood that I was not informed about due to all the rust underneath the vehicle. When I purchased it it was stationary at a private dealership in a city next to a highway.
