2002 Chevrolet Silverado basic review from North America

Squeaky week rear springs, Had to get replaced myself.

ABS always comes on regardless of road condition but not the lite.

Brakes need replacing every 30,000 km and don't stop truck very well.

Transmission slips when starting from a stop then clunks when it kicks in. (has done this since new)

Motor started knocking at 41,000km, told by dealer this is normal, Has been getting worse with more mileage.

Starter went 3 times without any warning, Told a chip burns out preventing starter from working and cannot be rebuilt only replaced.

Engine lite comes on quite often, Each time I send to dealer for repair I am told it's a bad connection (never the same as previous) no parts required but still costs almost $300. for diagnoses & turn off lite.

This truck has been nothing but problems since new.

My previous 4 Chevrolet trucks were great and never had any-ware ne'er as many problems combined.

I have learned a lot about these newer trucks & will never buy another.

I am now looking for an older pre computer truck.
