CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2011 car safety problem was reported on Sept 10, 2011.CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2011, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS LLC had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . I HAVE A 2011 CHEVY SILVERADO WITH A FUEL GAUGE PROBLEM. WHILE DRIVING DOWNHILL, MY FUEL GAUGE LIGHT JUST COMES ON AND THE FUEL GAUGE GOES DOWN TO EMPTY. THE VEHICLE THEN STALLS LOSING ALL POWER AND CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE (BRAKES, STEERING). AS I REACH THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL, I HAVE TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND IT STARTS RIGHT BACK UP BUT THE FUEL GAUGE STAYS AT EMPTY. I HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED AT A GM DEALERSHIP AND IT WAS STATED BY THE TECH THAT VEHICLE IS WORKING AS DESIGNED. THIS WAS ALSO CONFIRMED BY GM ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT. IF I RECALL, THE FUEL PUMP IS PLACED MORE TOWARD THE BACK OF TRUCK AND WHILE DRIVING DOWNHILL GAS MOVES TOWARDS FRONT OF TANK GIVING THE FUEL SENSOR A FALSE READING. I'M NO ENGINEER BUT I HAD A 2009 SILVERADO AND NEVER CAME ACROSS THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A BIG VEHICLE AND I BELIEVE THIS POSES A GREAT SAFETY RISK TO MYSELF AND FAMILY AS WELL AS THE PUBLIC. MANY TIMES WHEN THE TRUCK HAS LOST ALL POWER STEERING AND BRAKING CAPABILITY, MYSELF OR MY FAMILY MEMBERS WHO ARE DRIVING HAVE NARROWLY AVOIDED ACCIDENTS. GM TECH AND GM CORPORATE SAID REMEDY IS TO KEEP MORE GAS IN VEHICLE. THIS IS A CONTINUOUS PROBLEM AS AT TIMES IN TRAVEL I MAY NOT KEEP MY TANK AS FULL AS REQUIRED BY GM..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 4105 miles.

CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2011 Safety Review #10441242

CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2011 car safety problem was reported on July 27, 2011.CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2011, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS LLC had a problem with VISIBILITY . THE DRIVER SIDE MIRROR WILL NOT ADJUST OUTWARD FAR ENOUGH TO ELIMINATE A BLIND SPOT ON THAT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. 9/22/11 TOM BANNEN CHEVROLET IN MADISON TN ATTEMPTED TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM BY REPLACING THE MIRROR, BUT THAT RESULTED IN NO IMPROVEMENT. 12/8/11 I COMPLAINED TO THE DEALER AGAIN. [XXX], THE SERVICE WRITER, SAT IN MY TRUCK, OPERATED THE MIRROR AND CONFIRMED THAT THE MIRROR WOULD NOT ADJUST OUTWARD FAR ENOUGH TO ELIMINATE A BLIND SPOT. HE SAID THAT IT WAS DEFINITELY NOT RIGHT,� AND THEY WOULD CHECK IT OUT TO SEE WHAT REPAIR IS NEEDED. BUT WHEN I PICKED UP THE TRUCK, THEY SAID IT OPERATES LIKE ALL THEIR OTHER TRUCKS AND WOULD MAKE NO IMPROVEMENT. 12/10/11 I COMPLAINED TO GM AT 866-790-5600. 12/21/11 "DISTRICT SPECIALIST" JOHN (EXTENSION 42327) SAID GM WILL NOT DO ANYTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND THAT THIS IS GM'S FINAL POSITION ON THIS PROBLEM. THIS DEFECT LEAVES A BLIND SPOT IN MY VIEW, AND THAT INCREASES THE HAZARD OF MOVING LEFT TO CHANGE LANES. I AM, OF COURSE, AM NOT SATISFIED WITH THIS SITUATION. IT PLACES ME AT GREATER RISK THAN SHOULD BE NECESSARY WHEN DRIVING MY TRUCK. PERHAPS OTHER SILVERADO OWNERS ARE SUFFERING THIS SAME INCREASED RISK. PLEASE PROMPTLY PROVIDE A SOLUTION, INSTRUCT MY DEALER ON THAT SOLUTION, AND NOTIFY ME. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR.Mileage was 200 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1GCRCSE07BZ.

CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2011 car safety problem was reported on Jan 26, 2012.CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2011, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS LLC had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . I WAS TRAVELING ON A DIVIDED HIGHWAY AND APPROACHING A SLOW MOVING TRUCK IN THE RIGHT LANE AHEAD OF ME. THERE WAS ANOTHER TRUCK BEHIND ME IN MY LANE. I MOVED TO THE LEFT LANE TO PASS THE SLOW TRUCK. JUST AFTER I BEGAN THE PASS MY PICKUP SLOWED QUICKLY AND BEGAN FLASHING ERROR MESSAGES: STABILITY CONTROL DISABLED, ENGINE POWER REDUCED & SERVICE STABILITRAK. THE TRUCK BEHIND ME HAD MOVED UP CLOSE AND FOLLOWED ME AROUND THE SLOW MOVING TRUCK. I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE AND CONTINUED SLOWING QUICKLY. I HAD JUST ENOUGH ROOM TO SWERVE IN BEHIND THE SLOW TRUCK AS MY SPEED FELL BELOW ITS SPEED. THE TRUCK BEHIND ME NARROWLY AVOIDED A REAR IMPACT WITH MY TRUCK, WHICH, I BELIEVE, WOULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC. I PULLED TO THE RIGHT AND TRIED TO SPEED UP. ABOUT 40 MPH WAS ALL MY TRUCK WOULD DO. I STOPPED AND GOT OUT THE MANUAL. IT SAID TO RESET THE STABILITRAK, TURN THE VEHICLE OFF FOR 30 SECONDS. I DID THAT AND THE TRUCK SEEMED TO FUNCTIONED NORMALLY, AT LEAST AS FAR AS ENGINE POWER.

DRIVING ABOUT 60 MPH ABOUT 10 MILES INTO THE TRIP WHEN THE TRUCK LOST SPEED, THE ABS BRAKES DID A SLIGHT ON AND OFF PULSATING EVERY COUPLE OF SECONDS, THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING ROUGH AND GIVING IT GAS THE ENGINE REVVED UP BUT WOULDN'T GO ANYWHERE. SPEED DROPPED DOWN TO 35 OR 40 MPH AND WOULDN'T GO ANY FASTER. THE DASH INDICATOR SHOWED MESSAGES STATING STABILITRAK TRACTION CONTROL TURNED OFF AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. IT JOLTED REAL HARD WHEN IT SHIFTS GEARS. WHEN I MASHED THE BRAKE IT DIDN'T WANT TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP WITHOUT PRESSING THE BRAKES TO HOLD THE TRUCK THERE. I PULLED INTO A STORE POPPED THE HOOD AND FINDING NOTHING I TURNED THE TRUCK OFF FOR A FEW SECONDS AND RESTARTED IT BUT NOTHING CHANGED AND THE ERROR MESSAGES WERE STILL BEING DISPLAYED. THE TRUCKS ENGINE WAS RUNNING ROUGH. I HEADED HOME AND IT DIDN'T HAVE ANY POWER AND JOLTED HARD AS IT SHIFTED GEARS. I COUDLN'T GO BUT 35 OR 40 MPH ON THE LEVEL GROUND.

I PARKED THE TRUCK IN THE GARAGE AND IN 10 MINUTES I WENT TO START IT TO GET THE ERROR MESSAGES AND IT STARTED UP FINE AND THE ENGINE WASN'T RUNNING ROUGH.
