No September 3rd 2016 I was at stutz excavating driving for them and went I got off and walked to my pickup I got in the turned the key and the hour meter was on 00.0 and the miles had 127300 or so I had just change the oil and had over 4000 hrs on my truck someone broke in and hacked my pickup in stutz exc lot and on Dec 20th I was leaving dr bugers lot at 5:10 pm and my head light would not work I got home and the headlights worked fine I since they read about car hacks and pulled the radio fuse and and truck had no more problems infill April 28 my truck would not go I revers and the door locks locks themself and the hrs were going up with driving it the dealer said you can not earese the hour on that truck they are burned in the computer. So if stutz can remove the hour they can remove the miles from the truck I got police reports on the VW jetta but none on the pickup the pickup and car was moving threw edwardsville when the headlights went out I got home with my fog lights and again the edwardsville police are friends with stutz and told me it can't happen so now I live in fear that stutz can shut my lights off on a rainy night on a dark road mike weber at 3832 ramond rd is chris stutz father in law so most of the brack in have been happing at home and again cops refuse to believe
The entire instrument panel flickers and goes dark randomly I cant see my speed or what gear I am in. On my way to work and attempted to stop at a stop sign break pedal went to the floor. I had zero brakes.upon inspection I found a break line had corroded through and ruptured. The vehicle only has 100 thousand miles. It seems to be a common issue with this model vehicle. This is very dangerous
I began to have trouble with my light bulbs. When I tried to change bulb I found evidence of poor connection with the plastic of the bulb and of the socket somewhat burned. The filaments of the bulbs were ok. A friend of mine advised me to coat the connection with silicone grease. Recently a Virginia state trooper stopped me for two bulbs not functioning. Same problem. Luckily he waited while I removed the assembly and, yes, the bulbs were fine but not making good contact. He explained that he also has a Chevrolet truck and has the same problem. A former employee of GM in aiken ga told me that GM was supposed to apply this grease to electrical contacts but failed to do so. This is a safety problem or the trooper would not have stopped me!
The contact owns a 2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 diesel. While driving approximately 35 mph, the contact noticed that the lights on the shifter level were no longer illuminated. The contact also stated that his tail lights and the door locks would no longer function. The contact stated that because of the failure, he was unable to determine what gear he was driving in. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer and was repaired. The failure mileage was 21,010 and the current mileage was 21,060. The consumer also stated the back-up lights were not working.

My 2005 duramax diesel has repeatedly had the right rear brake/tail light go out. I have had the bulb replaced once by dealer, and paid for it. And the rest of the 4 times my husband and I have replaced the bulb as the dealership cost to replace a bulb is 5 X's the cost of the bulb. My duramax currently has the right rear brake/light bulb out. 2005 Chevrolet, currently has 40, 000 miles.
