I have a piece of shit 2014 Sierra going in for a pressure test on Tuesday. Truck doesn't even have 50k on it yet and has already had one radiator replaced. Now, 10 months later, I'm losing coolant again but can't locate a leak. Can anyone confirm for sure if the radiator can be replaced without removing the grille and bumper pad? Looks like the core support may stop it from being able to be lifted out vertically. These jokers are asking a grand to replace it, so I'm looking to do it myself. Just wanting to know how involved it really is.
Going to attempt to have this covered under possible powertrain warranty due to it being the second occurrence in such a short time. Not to mention 2 visits for trailer wiring issues in which their "certified tech" couldn't find anything wrong the first visit and told me it was my boats wiring. Absolutely not the case and I surprised them by hauling it up there the next day and demanded the boat be put on another truck on the lot to prove to him he was wrong. Rear 12v accessory not working, vibration on the freeway after 50 mph, rusting frame already, clunking transmission/rear end, squeaky interior, engine knock (running Signature Series Amsoil with religious oil changes due to frequent traveling with boat in tow), weatherstripping beginning to peel around rear passenger door and was told there is nothing they can do about it, rust pits in front bumper, MyLink radio display intermittently blacking out not allowing radio to be raised or lowered or change a station, not to mention no backup camera when it's acting up, etc.
I hate to offend anyone but in my experience, I can say these are nothing more than cookie cutter vehicles for guys who like to cruise around the city looking cool in their spit-shined trucks. Put them to work and they simply can't handle it. Looking forward to having it repaired and trading it in. Cosmetically, I think it's the best looking truck on the market but I am thoroughly disgusted and embarrassed in this "Professional Grade" poor American craftsmanship and quality. No more GM products for this guy. Cummins or Powerstroke will be next in line.
Anybody want to buy a truck?
