general problems of the 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

My truck keeps going into limp mode, it will not accelerate when I press on the gas pedal. This happens sometimes after stopping or slowing down.

The engine died without warning while driving at about 30 mph. Power steering and brakes were lost making the vehicle very difficult to control. I managed to stop the vehicle safely and had it towed to a Chevrolet dealership. The cause of the engine die out was found to be an internal fault in the engine control module.

2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, airbag sensor and check engine light came on with out accident or incident. We called gm and they told us to take it to a dealer. We took to the dealer we bought the truck from new. They ran diagnostic testing and it came back evaporative emission sensor and inflatable restraint front sensor were bad. As a safety/emissions problem it should have been covered under warranty. They gave us a $600 bill in which we made them call the gm representative. They then had us pay $250. 2 1/2 years later and airbag sensor light is back on without accident. This seems to be a big complaint with this year truck. It seems that if the sensor is not working and my family were to be in an accident my airbags would not deploy and we could be hurt or killed in an accident. Please investigate the air bag sensors.
