Voltage drain that dealer is unable to locate. Battery goes dead if not started for a period of time. Happened since day 1, They told me yes there is a drain on battery
but we can't find it.
Power window motors both had to be replaced $250 each even though they know it's a problem.
Rotors are rusted all around another know problem.
4 wheel drive sometimes malfunctions and stops working, next time you start it everything is fine again.
Instrument cluster stops working, shut off, let sit for awhile then it works again.
I bought this to replace a 2000 GMC Sonoma that was a lemon from day 1. new transmission 500 miles, 3 oil leaks, etc. I got rid of that truck while it was still under warranty because they stated that they would fix things under warranty, but after that I was on my own. (I wrote Chevy to see if they would extend warranty because of all the problems.) I gave them another chance and I'm sorry I did.
Poor gas mileage 10-11 city 12-14 highway.
On plus side. Very comfortable, powerful engine, rides smooth for a truck.
It's kinda funny that my buddy has a 2005 F-150 FX4 and is experiencing similar issues, mostly the "4 wheel drive sometimes malfunctions and stops working, next time you start it everything is fine again". All vehicles have their problems, and ALL manufacturers have their "lemons" from time to time. I guess it all depends on which day of the week it was built...
