Been having problems slowly with the battery running out because something is still running in the vehicle but everything is off. The gas gauge gear control lighting on the panel door on the passenger side will not lock speedometer is not working gas gauge is not working was checked by a mechanic and he address that something is not constant running even though everything is turned off that cause the battery to run down when it is off. Also the lights don't light on the right side stays on and never goes off when running the vehicle. I noticed this on a lot of 2500 Chevy trucks. We have taken this vehicle in to be check. Please help us to resolve this problem as soon as possible. Thank you for your time. Looking forward to hearing back from you sun.

Purchased the truck from car geeks and they said it was a great truck and we would have no problem towing our fifth wheel trailer. Well we took it on a trip to phoenix from tucson and we noticed that the truck was not handling very well when we got home I noticed that the passenger side tire was gouged out all the way around the inside bead of the tire also noticed that only the upper control arm had been replaced and nothing else. All of the front suspension was in really bad condition also. Along with the steering you can only turn the steering wheel a little ways

Silverado 2500 4WD 8-cyl

  • 30,000 miles
Front brake line rusted through. Hard to understand how a vehicle manufacturer can produce a vehicle with stainless exhaust that lasts as long as the truck but still assemble vehicle with steel brake lines that rust through causing brake failure. There are better materials to make brake lines from and Chevrolet should be forced to use them.
