Unfortunately, sir, you are only talking to other Chevy owners.

This is not an official GM site.

Perhaps you need to let Chevy themselves know how you feel.

We might lose you to Chrysler, but I've had too much personal

experience with ford schlock to let that concern me. If you're

upset with Chevy, just wait till you try drinking the ford Kool-aid.

 

I have a 2008 2500HD extended cab and the passenger side door speaker went out. I simply ordered a pair of nice Pioneer speakers from Crutchfeild for only 40 dollars. They were direct replacements with a mounting bracket and wiring kit and sound better than before the old ones went out. Yes it is a design flaw and a faulty part but for 40 dollars, I don't think it is worth writing off Chevrolet. I still love my Chevrolet, and for a WT with over 100,000 miles on it I don't think it is too much to ask to replace a pair of speakers. Especially because everything mechanically and functionality wise is still working and running like a champ. Just my opinion.

 

I bought a new 2000 chevy S 10, a new 2004 silverado extended cab and then a new 2008 silverado chevy 4 door, the 2000 and 2004 were very good trucks, the 2008 has had the radio problem, broken door handles X 6, and seats unraveling, now at 88,000 miles it is using a quart of oil per week, these problems are quality control issues and now the truck is out of warrenty, needless to say its my last Chevy

 

Lost both front speakers, but currently have rear working. Not a safety issue??? Can't hear seat belt alarm.
Guess I will give the aftermarket speakers a try. Until I trade.

 

Now that I have ordered, and received new speakers from Crutchfield, my front speakers are working again. Have others experienced intermittent problems that were solved by replacing the speakers?

 

My 07 Silverado had intermittent front speakers, I also bought some Sony Speakers from Crutchfield, no problem now. Stock Chevy Speakers Are TRASH. Now at 41,000 mi my trucks using over a quart of oil the last two oil changes before 2,000 miles. the guy at the oil change place said a lot of them do it. cadillac's too. NO MORE CHEVYS FOR ME

 

Tims truck.... try the dealership on th oil cunsumption issue. There were recalls on tjose years on the engines for using oil ! Even tho your out of warrenty probably by time they may stiil fix it since it is a recall ! As far as speaker issues. All of the trucks are doing it. Mine started as fron left they replaxwd it. Npwy back ones wont work then all but one in the front then they all start working. Is changing the radio or spwkers resolving this for anyone ? Also FYI .. remove the rubber plugs in the bottom of your doors. These truxks are holding water inside the doors when it rains and I'm sure it's not helping with the electrical parts !

 

Pull the rubber plugs out on the bottom of your doors. That will fix the holding water issue. I had the same problem.

 

I dont think your move will concern them. Let them know how you feel, The grass is not greener on the other side thats for sure. Every company has faults.

 

Replaced front speakers, and A-OK now. Waiting for the rears to STB!
Thanks for the help.
