1994 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 review from North America
"It's a piece of junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It made a really bad clunking noise.
When you started it, you had to turn it over for 3 seconds, let it stop for a couple of seconds, and then turn the key and it would start.
Everything was rotting underneath, it had a really bad brake fluid leak, I had all the brake lines replaced.
Then at about 102,000 miles, I was driving about 60 mph and I went over railroad tracks and the left rear brakes locked up and the truck rolled over into a field.
General comments?
I hated the truck, it had horrible acceleration and when you pulled something, it would sway back and forth really bad.
