Silverado 3500 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 82,800 miles
2001 Z71 1500 Silverado Chevy. The gears in the rear end shattered as I crossed a busy commercial street into on coming traffic. No crash incurred. This truck is just off ext. Warrt. 4year/100,000 mile. The truck has 82,800 miles on it. I have had this truck to the dealer 3 times complaining of a load noise coming from the rear end. This truck has had over 6,000 dollars of warrt. Work. Not to mention what I have put out of my own pocket. I am a self employed person, and without a truck I can not make a living. It has been at a repair shop now for 6 days!! I know I am not the only person out there with the same problem. GM fix my truck.
