#123 of 123 2007 Silverado leaf springs by 07chevz71
Jul 27, 2011 (7:08 pm)
I have a 2007 Silverado z71... it only has 77,000 miles on it and i have two broken leaf springs. The middle leaf springs on both sides snapped in half and i don't even put weight in the back, and i don't go off road.... i ocasionally tow snomobiles, and i'm sure not ruff on it. I took it to the Chevrolet dealer in Ithaca, NY and they told me that they just replaced the same ones on a 09 silverado with only 30,000 miles on it today. when i pulled it into the garage for them to look at it, the woman at service said to the technician " guess what is wrong with this truck" and the technician replied " leaf springs?" it seems like they must have a lot of problems with them and im wondering if anyone else has had this problem, or if there is anything they are doing to fix the problem with them breakin so easy. It is covered under the GM Protection Plan Warranty, but im afraid that they will eventually do it again, and by then my warranty will be up and ill be stuck fixin them myself... it doesn't sound like an easy fix either... the technician told me that he has to drop the gas tank and remove the exhaust just to get to them and replace themTo POST a message, please
