SilveradoSSobsession Posted June 9, 2005 Report Share Posted June 9, 2005 Ok i woke up today, went out to my SS and opened my door and heard POP! I looked over and found that the side of the door smacked into my fender when i opened it, chipping off 1 inch of paint off the door panel's edge! I then remembered that when i took the SSS in a few weeks ago to have a sqeaking in the door fixed, they told me they had to realign the door and locks to fix the squeaking. Apparently they put the door a little TOO close to the fender. It wouldnt have been a problem but today it was 95 and the truck sat out all day, so the steel must have expanded a little. I took it right to the dealership and the manager tried telling me that it popped because the fender was bent in from someone leaning on the door. I told him either to fix it or i would call Chevy headquarters and make a complaint. So he agreed to paint it and fix the door too. Within 3 months of having this truck i have had the following problems: 1. Sqeaking door 2. Shitty paint repair on my rear bumper 3. Failure of transmission to engage reverse 4. Transmission seemed to slip the other night after i took off from a red light. 5. Rust on my wheel. 6. Rust on the trailer hitch. 7. Sqeaking Door is back 8. Other side of truck is squeaking now. 9. Door missaligned chipping paint off panel 10. Factory paint imperfection on rear drivers quarter. Does any of this warrant a request for a replacement truck or lemon law?

kaotik1 Posted June 9, 2005 Report Share Posted June 9, 2005 I dont think any of that applies for lemon law. They all seem to be pretty quick dealer fixes. You can go here and see for yourself what counts twards lemon law and how to go about applying for it. http://www.lemonlawamerica.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan06SS Posted June 9, 2005 Report Share Posted June 9, 2005 To lemon it you have to have the EXACT same issue 3 or more times... a combination of issues doesn't warrant a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
