DO NOT BUY A CHEVROLET SILVERADO (PERSONAL EXAMPLE)
2022 Chevrolet Silverado Custom,
Transmission failure at 58,000 miles, $8,000 to replace because you have to find a hidden transmission in California and have it shipped to Florida, because ALL TRANSMISSIONS OF THE SAME MODEL ARE ON A YEAR OR MORE BACKORDER. The issue is that common!
Now you find out first hand all of the electrical issues these trucks have! Better turn off the auto stop and start feature of the truck, if you don’t, it’ll completely overload your system and shut everything off before it restarts, completely locking you out of driving, starting, or even moving your vehicle for 3 hours! In traffic!
That’s not to mention the constant fuse changes and brake system issues and faults simply because it is poorly designed.
But wait! There’s more! Even though “technically” the electrical and auto start issue is a FACTORY DEFECT, YOU STILL HAVE TO PAY FOR IT!
Do not buy from Chevy in general. Lesson learned.
