general problems of the 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

I purchased (4) nitto terra grappler at 265/70/17 tires about 2 months ago. Ever since I've had them I've been having a sliding problem. When I almost come to a complete stop the tires start sliding on dry and dirt free pavement and activates my abs. My abs sensors are not dirty. I've never had this problem with tires like I do with these. It can be dangerous and very surprising at times when I drive with this problem occurring. I sent the manufacturer a complaint email. But never got a response. My local dealer says it's a tire problem. Only thing I can do is disable the abs. But even if I do that it won't stop the sliding.

The contact owns a 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that when starting the vehicle, the steering catch fractured and caused the wheel to fracture. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where they advised him that the power steering pump failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired for the power steering pump. In addition, the contact mentioned that the front suspension was causing wear to the front tires. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where they advised him that the front springs needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired for the front springs. The vehicle manufacturer was later contacted and they offered no assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 23,800. Updated 5/11/12 the consumer stated the right front frame cushion is riding on the right front lower a arm. The front suspension is not supporting the weight of the vehicle. Also, the steering gear box has a defected bearing in it which causes is it to catch when moving the vehicle. The extended warranty company and atascadero Ford outlet filed chapter 11 bankruptcy. The consumer paid $5,050. 00 for the extended warranty. Updated 6/15/2012.

The contact owns a 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The vehicle has bridgestone dueler a/t 693 tires, size p265/70r17. The tires were purchased new when the vehicle had 25,000 miles. The tread began to wear in an unusual manner in the center of all four tires. The contact checked the tire pressure on a regular basis, but the center of all four tires continued to wear unnaturally. Neither the vehicle manufacturer nor the tire manufacturer were notified. The contact referenced NHTSA campaign id number 04t018000 (tires:tread/belt). The dot number and failure mileage were unknown. The current mileage was 42,000.

General tires with 420 tread wear blowing out at less than 20,000 miles, tires seem to be very thin. On 2006 chevy pickup, not abused general ameritrac 245/70/17.

I bought a 06 chevy silverado pickup in June 06. The truck has 1800 miles on it and it has a bad vibration at any speed over 30 mph. I have brought the truck back to the dealer 4 times and each time they rebalance the tires. The last time I was there they let 5 lbs of air out of each tire. They are now telling me that it is "the nature of the beast" and the tires have to get broke it before the vibration will stop. The truck has general ameritrac p245/70/r17 tires on it. I took the truck to a local tire dealer and was told that the tires are out of round and loping causing the vibration in the truck. The dealer keeps giving me the saying they are waiting for the Chevrolet factory rep to come there. I an afraid to drive the truck with this vibration as I am unable to walk and use a wheelchair and I don't want to be broke down someplace with this truck. What can I do to get this problem resolved?.

Haven't had an accident yet.

I have a brand new 2006 chevy silverado pickup and it came with p265/70r/17 goodyear wrangler st tires. At 2700 miles the right rear tire went flat while traveling on a paved road and at 5500 miles the left front tire went flat while traveling on a graveled road. Both tires had cuts in the center of the tires and were very similar. I complained to goodyear and they won't do anything about this unsafe tire.
