problem #1

Silverado 1500 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 7,500 miles
I had two inside door panel replaced already. These two things were fixed from the engine compartment, it gets worse when it is colder. Fuel gauge is inaccurate and jumps around when truck is not in a moving gear. I am very upset about the last two, because Chevy says the truck is working within "normal Chevy parameter". I have asked many mechanics and they say either one should be happening. The date below is an approximate time the last two started. I also have had it in twice for both of these problems.
