Used 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Crew Cab Consumer Reviews
Chevy needs to fix the engine
The fuel management system in this vehicle is terrible. My truck had 79k miles on it when I had to put a new engine in it. Took it to the dealership and had it done. As soon as my truck left the shop another 2010 truck exactly like mine came in the shop for a new engine with 115k miles. Same problems, same solution. Chevy wont do anything about the problem and left its customers to pay for it. This was my first and last Chevy I will ever own.

2010 Silverado 1500 LTZ Engine Fail - 98,000 Miles
There maybe a problem with the 5.3L engine in the 2010 Silverado LTZ. While driving, heard a clicking noise that affected engine performance. I could not find any visible problem upon inspecting the engine. Had Silverado towed to dealership for service. The service mechanics inspected the engine and after removing the cylinder head and inspecting the lifters and value train, they found cylinder 1 lifters grooved and the camshaft damaged. I had the option of cam and lifter job or replace the engine. I asked the dealer service representative why this damaged occurred as I had changed the oil regularly and the service representative had no answer why this problem occurred. I was expecting to keep this truck but now much consider my options. I do not plan on buying another Silverado. Update 6/11/21 - Decided on new engine which came with a 3 year, 36,000 mile warranty as opposed to a 90 day warranty for rebuilt engine. Mileage now 110,108.

2010 Chevy Silverado 5.3 crew z71 44x4
I love the truck except for one thing..it has a clunking noise in the transmission/ rear end. I took it to the dealership and all they did was lubricate the rear end. The noise is still there! This is very frustrating so I can not recommend this vehicle. If I could get a refund--I would. The transmission mechanic said that it was something I would have to live with!
Poorly buily trucj
I havr had this truxk for years and have had nothinf but trouble. Wiring issues, mechanical issues, ac issues, the list goes on. Most of which were not covered in the manufacturers warranty, and now I know the reasons. Chevy knew there would be electronic issues when releases. I will be going back to Ford asap.

Super Silverado!
Traded in my 03 Honda Pilot. Great vehicle but wanted more capability for hunting, fishing, outdoor stuff. Considered F150. Test drove my LT Z71 and was hooked. Comfortable ride on road and great so far doing some light off-road (I plan to challenge it more later). Powerful engine with great low end torque and high end horsepower. At 80 mph only 2,000 RPM. Rated for 21 MPG on highway which is actually higher than my Pilot. So far I am averaging 17 MPG in mixed driving. I anticipate this will improve some with time.
