2006 Chevrolet Silverado 2500

LOUD SQUEAL NOISE IN THE TRANSMISSION OF 2006 CHEVY SILVERADO WHEN IT RUNS IN LOW GEAR AND WHEN IT IS IN DRIVE AND SHIFTS FROM LOW TO HIGH GEAR. THE TRUCK WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER 2 TIMES AND WE WERE TOLD IT WAS A NORMAL NOISE FOR THE 4L80E TRANSMISSION. WE TOOK IT TO ANOTHER GM DEALER WHO SAID THERE WAS A PROBLEM. WE CALLED GM AND THEY HAD US TAKE THE TRUCK BACK TO THE DEALER WE BOUGHT IT FROM. WE WERE TOLD IT WAS A NORMAL NOISE AFTER THE MECHANIC DROVE IT. WHEN IT WAS USED TO PULL A TRAILER LOADED WITH HAY, THE NOISE WAS EVEN GREATER. I AM CONCERNED THAT THERE WILL BE AN ACCIDENT WITH THIS TRUCK. *TR

DRIVER'S ELECTRIC HEATER COMES BY IT'S SELF GETS REAL HOT/ HAVE TO JUST KEEP PUSHING THE ON AND OFF SWITCH SEVERAL X THEN IT RUNS OFF HIT BUMP AND IT STARTS AGAIN HAD THREE DIFFERENT PEOPLE HAS THERE BACK WAS RED FROM THE HEAT. HAD AT DEALER X2 OR MORE AND AL L THE SAY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG ALSO THE EASY OUT ON THE SEAT DOESN'T WORK WHEN YOU REMOVE THE KEY THE CLUSTER CHANGE WILL CHANGE BY IT SELF( FUEL USED/ OIL LIFE / FUEL ECON ECT YES EVEN GENERAL MOTORS ARE TELLING SORRY!! BUT WHO LIKES TO DRIVE WITH THE HEATED SEAT ON @ 90 DEGREES WEATHER. *TR

MY TRANSMISSION COOLER LINES WERE LEAKING AND I'M CONCERNED ABOUT IT DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION FLUID BEING A COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL. IF THIS MATERIAL DRIPPED ONTO A HOT EXHAUST AND IGNITED WHILE PARKED IN THE "ATTACHED" GARAGE OF OUR HOME, IT COULD POSE A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD...NOT TO MENTION IT COULD DO TO THE NEIGHBORS HOME BEING RELATIVELY CLOSE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 CHEVROLET SILVERADO THAT HAS PRESENTED A PROBLEM IN THE STEERING ASSEMBLY OF THE VEHICLE. I NOTICED A MOANING NOISE THAT WAS PRESENT WHILE TURNING TO THE RIGHT. I BROUGHT THIS UP TO THE DEALER IN MY AREA AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY PROBLEM WAS MY STEERING BOX WAS LEAKING AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. I WENT AHEAD WITH THE SUGGESTED REPAIR. THIS HOWEVER DID NOT FIX MY PROBLEM. I BROUGHT THE TRUCK BACK, THEY EXAMINED IT AND TOLD ME TO REPLACE THE POWER STEERING PUMP AS IT WAS LEAKING AND THAT SHOULD TAKE CARE OF IT. I DID AS SUGGESTED BUT STILL NOT FIXED. MIND YOU THIS WAS AT 50,000 MILES. I BROUGHT THE TRUCK BACK, EXAMINED IT AGAIN, AND THIS TIME WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED TO REPLACE BOTH TIE ROD ENDS AND THE IDLER ARM TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. SO I DID AS SUGGESTED. STILL NOT FIXED. I TOOK IT BACK AGAIN, THEY EXAMINED IT, AND BY THIS TIME THE PROBLEM IS GETTING WORSE, LOUDER NOISE ETC. THEY SAID, WELL THE POWER STEERING CONTROL VALVE NEEDED REPLACEMENT, I AGREED, THEY SAID THIS WOULD DO IT. THE DEALER FIXED HALF OF IT. NOW I HAVE A HIGH PITCHED NOISE UNDER THE HOOD AND THE REMEDY FOR THAT IS TO REPLACE THE STEERING BOX THAT I REPLACED 30,000 MILES PRIOR. I NEEDED TO HAND OVER MORE MONEY AND IN TWO AND A HALF YEARS I GO THROUGH TWO STEERING BOXES, SO I CALLED CHEVY AND ASKED THEM IF MAYBE THEY WOULD HELP WITH THE BILL, THEY AGREED TO PAY A PORTION, BUT THAT'S NOT REALLY GOOD ENOUGH IN MY BOOK. IF THEY CANT STAND BEHIND A STEERING BOX FOR 30,000 MILES WHAT'S NEXT. THE DEALER HAS ALSO INFORMED ME THAT THIS DOES EFFECT MY BRAKING AS WELL AS THE TRUCK IDLING IRREGULARLY. I AM VERY DISSATISFIED WITH CHEVROLET AND GM. WHEN I WANTED TO TAKE THIS TO THE NEXT STEP WITH THE COMPANY, THEY TOLD ME I SHOULD NOT SPOIL A GOOD DEAL THAT THEY ARE OFFERING, AND IF I DO TAKE IT HIGHER I WAS ADVISED THEY MIGHT NOT BE SO KIND TO ME. WHAT A DEAL!! *TR
