Is My truck a lemon? What problems have you had?
#1
I bought my 2003 Silverado on 10/31/02. Sence then it has been in the shop over a dozen times. My slip yok was stuck, lock lever poped off, seat back keeped popping any time body weight moved, power steering pump needed to be replaced, outside temp guage says 96 degreese when it is 20 degreese
, outside mirror defrost does not work, blower motor needed to be replaced, shock stablizer needed to be replaced and now it is in the shop because the transmission is starting to shift hard! There are a few more things I can't think of also.
Most of these things are minor but every time I think I have all the bugs worked out something else breaks! I swear if something else goes wrong I'm going to go through the roof!
So what knid of problems have you guys got? Rant off!

my 99 has had its share of problems. Nothing major, just enough to **** me off!
The ABS pump went out. The gas hand is screwy as hell. I had a window regulator go out. It rattles like hell driving down the road. The service engine soon light stays on. The fog lights suck. Just little crap that's annoying, but as long as the motor and tranny stay there, I'll be happy.

i've had my '03 for about 5 months and have had no problems with it.
I had an '02 Z71 that was in the shop for tranny problems 3 times within 12,000 miles. If I were you I'd definitely be bustin some *****.

What day was your truck made on, you can find out by telling your dealership your vin # and they can tell you what day it was made. I have heard to never ever buy a GM vehicle that was made on Mon. or Friday.
One problem that I have had with my 99 sierra is the ABS pump going out aroung 38K. Don't think I'm ever going to replace it so long as I can still stop (knock on wood), also because that stupid little thing costs around $800 alone!!!!
