What is the Silverado Engine Investigation?
CASL is investigating whether GM Specialty Vehicles (GMSV) and its parent company General Motors knowingly sold certain vehicles in its Chevrolet Silverado 1500 range whose engines were defective in design and manufacture resulting in significant engine problems and, on occasions, complete engine failures.
This follows similar problems Silverado owners have faced in the USA where a class action is already underway and the national regulator, NHTSA, has recently opened an investigation into engine problems in those cars.
CASL is investigating whether to bring a class action in Australia on behalf of affected Chevrolet Silverado 1500 owners to seek damages for the losses and inconvenience they have suffered.
