After reading other complaints, I thought I would share my problems too. I bought my 2002 1500HD chevy used with about 22,000 miles on it. Within a couple of months, I was annoyed by the tapping on start up. I just traded my 1994 2500 5.7 in and went from an extended cab to a crew cab to pull a modest camper and a growing family of 4.
The old truck never sounded like this piece of crap. It was under warranty, but the dealer said it was only on start up. I bitched so much, they wanted to give me a 100k warranty, which I never got. I wanted to sell it, but never did, because I love the rest of the truck. I now have 111,000 miles on her and after 2 starters, a wiper blade motor, both axle seals replaced, broken cruise control, a rough idle, and now a new throttle body, I still have the tapping noise at start up.
I want to stay American made, but I ask myself why?
