Bad chevy
John, Houston, TX, 10/23/2019
2012 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTZ 4dr Crew Cab 5.8 ft. SB (5.3L 8cyl 6A)
I am sorry to say this truck is a beautiful truck but started falling apart at around 90,000 miles 3 outside door handles broke check engine light started coming on and off both front headlights burnt out lever for both front seat reclining broke off and now I am told I have a bad engine nothing but 1 thing after another worst vehicle I ever owned 2012 Chevy double cab Texas edition all … the chrome all the bells and whistles beautiful expensive and not worth a crap I bought it 3 years old with 30000 miles on it ok for about a year or so but everything started falling apart starting with the exterior parts you would think a Chevy PU would go the ex mile but don’t be fooled I have had several people tell me the 5.3 instant eco engine was made to save gas but the oil doesn’t get to the back of the engine and causes the engine to go out. Worst purchase I have ever made.
Remotelink doesn't work with GM dealer remote start

2012 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTZ 4dr Crew Cab 5.8 ft. SB (5.3L 8cyl 6A)
It was dissappointing to find out only after taking delivery of my new Silverado that OnStar's RemoteLink does not work nor will it ever work with the GM dealer installed remote starter. Both GM and OnStar have assured me that they have no intention now or in the future to ever make the less expensive dealer installed option work with the RemoteLink app for smartphones. From what I can … find out, the remote start equipment is installed at the factory but the key fobs are programmed at the dealer through a factory download direct to the vehicle. When you consider that the factory installed remote start option only comes in a higher priced convienence package, I guess it's all corporate greed.
