When driving (sitting in drivers seat), when you go around a corner you can feel the seat moving. It seems tight when you get out and try moving it but when driving and turning corners you can feel the seat move sliding side to side. Talked with dealership on problem, they claim it needs a shim kit. But they want to charge to diagnose what i deem to be a safety problem. At some point the seat may come completely…

Heated seats working to mfg specs per dealer but no heat can be felt. Dealership says they hear this complaint from many and that it is a poor design on the part of the mfg. I looked on social media & message boards to find this issue is a common complaint. Chevy says there is no issue because seats are working to specs, won't give any info for who else to contact at chevy to address this widespread common…

Air bag issues and the dealer said it wasn't covered either. As of today i have spent almost $3k on this truck for something that you wouldn't think a new truck would have to repair. The rear end went out at…

I was involved in a hit and run accident (i was stationary at the time at a dry, mutli-turn lane light) nov 15, 2016. After collision repairs to the visible damage to the vehicle, i found that the driver's side seat would not recline. Dealership worked on it and claimed to have fixed it. After the first attempt, it reclined but would not lock into place on the right side. Returned to dealership and required metal…

On occasions (about 50 so far) when backing out of a space and shifting gear from reverse to drive, the transmission does not shift, there is a 2-3 second delay before it shifts and jumps into gear with a clunk. This…

Driver seat is not anchored securely. It moves at times such as when turning. Some models of this same year truck is on the recall list for this same problem, but i was told mine is not included. It looks like maybe more of the 2014's needs to be recalled, i know this one does.

The rear seat head rests on the 2014 chevy silverado z71 double cab 1500 trucks do not provide protection.

The rest still allows the passengers head to hit the rear window. When one rests their head back the rest easily goes down and does not lock in place. Rear…

I purchased the 2014 silverado 1500 while it was raining. Test drive was fine, but the sales person already had the vehicle running with the defroster and wipers on. Drove home (2 miles) and parked. Turned on the fan knob ( standard with a/c model) and the a/c turned on, this occurred nearly every time i turned it on and asked the dealer service center about it. I was told i am probably hitting it with my knuckles.…
