2008 Chevrolet Silverado

THE FRONT SPEAKERS AND ONE OF THE EXTENDED CAB DOORS SPEAKERS DO NOT WORK.CAN NOT HEAR THE WARNING CHIME. SOMETIMES WHEN THE TRUCK HAS BEEN DRIVEN FOR AWHILE THE SPEAKERS IN THE DRIVER'S SIDE STARTS TO WORK. AS OF 07/11/14 THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR SPEAKERS DOESN'T WORK UNLESS THE TRUCK HAS BEEN DRIVEN FOR AWHILE.. I'VE CONTACTED GM SEVERAL TIMES ON THIS ISSUE AND GET THE SAME RESPONSE, THEY CAN NOT HELP ME WITHOUT PAYING THEM A FEE.... I TELL THEM WHAT IS HAPPENING AND THEY DON'T CARE. I SENT AN EMAIL TO THEM ON 07/12/14 AND HAVEN'T HEARD FROM THEM YET. I AFRAID THAT THE TRUCK IS GOING CATCH ON FIRE OR SHUT OFF WHILE I'M DRIVING OR WHEN MY WIFE IS DRIVING WITH MY KIDS IN THE TRUCK. *TR

7:10 A.M. TUESDAY MORNING, I HIT BLACK ICE AND LOST CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE. I PROCEEDED TO SLIDE UNCONTROLLABLY ACROSS THE ROAD. I THEN HIT A CLIFF WITH THE FRONT END OF MY VEHICLE, ONCE I HIT THE THE CLIFF MY VEHICLE THEN FLIPPED IN THE AIR AND LANDED ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. ONCE I HAD LANDED ON THE PAVEMENT, ANOTHER VEHICLE CAME ALONG PROCEEDING AT AROUND 45 MPH. THE VEHICLE PROCEEDED TO HIT THE HOOD OF MY VEHICLE. THE DRIVER HIT MY HOOD DIRECTLY WITH THE FRONT END OF HIS VEHICLE. DURING THE WHOLE INCIDENT, I HAD MY SEATBELT ON. ALSO IT WAS INDICATED THAT MY AIR BAGS WERE ONE AND FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY. THE VEHICLE ITSELF WAS TOTALED AND I SUSTAINED WHIPLASH, A SLIGHT CONCUSSION, SEVERE BRUISES AND CUTS, AND ALSO RECEIVED A CHIPPED TOOTH FROM HITTING THE STEERING WHEEL WITH MY FACE. *TR

MY TRUCK STAYED PARKED FOR 10 DAYS WHILE ON VACATION. IT WAS RUNNING FINE WHEN I PARKED IT. UPON RETURNING FROM VACATION I TRIED TO START IT AND NOTHING! IT WONT EVEN TRY TO TURN OVER. AFTER HAVING A PRIVATE MECHANIC LOOK AT IT HE SAID THE FUSE BLOCK UNDER THE HOOD HAS A SHORT IN IT. HOW CAN IT SHORT OUT JUST SITTING THERE? THIS COULD BE A FIRE HAZARD & A SAFETY ISSUE!! I HAVE 2 SMALL CHILDREN & IF I WERE DRIVING & IT CAUGHT ON FIRE WE ALL COULD BE INJURED!!!!!! THIS SHOULD OPEN GM'S EYES TO HAVE A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE. *TR

RAILROAD HYRAIL VEHICLE EQUIPPED, AFTER MARKET, WITH HYRAIL WHEEL ASSEMBLIES WHICH ALLOW THE VEHICLE TO OPERATE ON RAILROAD TRACKS. ONCE HYRAIL (FLANGED) WHEELS ARE RETRACTED, THE VEHICLE IS OPERATED OVER THE HIGHWAYS AND PUBLIC ROADS LIKE ANY OTHER VEHICLE. ON 7/23/2010, AT 20TH ST. AND US 34 IN WARREN COUNTY, IL., RAILROAD EMPLOYEE WAS OPERATING A HYRAIL-EQUIPPED VEHICLE ON PUBLIC ROADWAY WHEN IT WAS STRUCK FROM BEHIND AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED WHILE STOPPED IN TRAFFIC TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN. STRIKING VEHICLE WAS TOWING A TRAILER AND BOTH VEHICLES LEFT THE ROADWAY AND STRUCK A FENCE. AIRBAGS IN THE HYRAIL-EQUIPPED VEHICLE DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS MADE. CONCERN IS THAT THE INSTALLATION OF HYRAIL WHEEL ASSEMBLIES MIGHT BE IMPACTING THE AIRBAG SENSOR. THE HYRAIL WHEEL ASSEMBLIES EXTEND APPROX. ONE FOOT OF STEEL FRAMEWORK AHEAD OF THE FRONT AND REAR BUMPERS. THE PLACEMENT OF THESE ASSEMBLIES MIGHT INADVERTENTLY BE AFFECTING AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT IN CRASHES ON THE RAILROAD TRACK AND ON PUBLIC ROADS. *TR
