I agree that the markup is ridiculous. I got a trade in offer of $31k which would be about a $2k loss in the 1 month I have had the truck. Did not take it though, just trying to see what I could get. It was through CarMax btw.

Do you still pay tax on the new vehicle ?

But lets be real.. Nobody pays close to MSRP. I paid $10k under MSRP.. KBB is more than what I purchased mine for.

Well I drove a lot this weekend to try and find common things that cause it to vibrate worse. No matter what/where it still vibrates furiously at 72mph+. I called to schedule another service appointment and the first appointment they could get me in is October 9th... Over 2 weeks away.. I expressed my disappointment but he said they are dealing with a ton of recalls right now. The worst part is how much I drive, I hate racking up these miles on the truck.

So I just got back from my dealer visit. Apparently GM is well aware of the issue. The service manager I worked with was a really cool guy and he said they have had a issues with multiple trucks and have had the engineers out more than once to try and diagnose what the issue is with no luck. He said GM has know about the issue for about 6 months and just recently told the dealer to stop throwing parts at the truck. He said they have tried replacing tires, rims, rear and, and driveshafts on multiple trucks with it never fixing the issue, so essentially they are awaiting GM to figure out whats going on. As far as my ruck goes, we got it up to 75 twice in a ride along and couldn't replicate the issue. It drove me nuts and made me look liek a idiot, but he said he could try RF balancing the tires if I wanted. I declined for the time being as I wanted to see why it wasn't vibrating now and to see if it still was. On my way home on the highway, sure enough, it started vibrating again at 72mphish. The only difference was the roads we were driving on, one was a "smooth" highway, which made it vibrate, and the other was a "smoothish" back road. I took another way home as opposed to the normal highway route and got up to 75 mph, and no bad vibrations at all...... Does not make any sense besides the highway I am driving on is messed up, but that would have to mean its messed up for a 20 mile stretch on both sides. I wonder if on the "back roads" if the suspension is hitting smaller bumps that is "loosening" up the suspension making it not so stiff? I do not know.... The service manager said my Sierra was one of the smoothest he has driven. He could have been blowing smoke, Im not sure. We drove a "loaner" Sierra that vibrated WAY worse than mine.

Exact same thing. That's good that it's not just me then LOL. I go to the dealer for the first time today at 12:30pm and will see what they say.

Mine is having the exact same issue. It's pretty smooth up until 70mph and then the center counsel and seats shake like hell.

What really worries me about going through the buy back to just get another 2014 is there was someone who said that the problem didn't start until 15k miles. I did not notice my issue until 1k miles and really dont want to go through all this to just get another 2014 that will have issues down the road. Should they or are they offering cash buybacks as opposed to just trade assist?

How are they buying it back? Are they giving you trade assist towards a new gmc/chevy or are you getting "cash" back?

So has anyone who have received a buyback and got another 2014 Sierra/Silverado experienced the vibration on your new ride?

Add me to the list that is having this same issue. I did not notice it until I hit about 1k miles, but very noticable now especially going 65+mph plus and the worst being around 75pmh. I take my truck in next Wednesday to try and figure it out. 2014 Sierra 5.3L 4x5 Double cab manufactured on 7/14 in Fort Wayne, IN Also, the truck has Bridgestone tires on it from the factory.
