Shake or Vibration Issues
TheFactor replied to Silver space ship's topic in Troubleshooting & Recalls
Well it's nice to periodically come back to this thread and see some folks getting closer to a fix . I feel for everyone still dealing with the vib issue and everything associated with getting it fixed like the op ^^^^^ that's not good and part of dealing with a truck that has to be in and out of the shop chasing a fix . I almost feel bad jumping ship but it was like a breath of fresh air and sincerely hope you guys and gals get a fix or a new truck . Trust me it's such a relief and so satisfying . Until then hang in there and who knows they may have a fix in the near future hopefully.?? -

I don't blame you one bit , I had to take a about half of that hit on my trade and it hurt . -

Figured they did my dealer I traded it in at didn't say anything directly but they wouldn't even give me a ball park on trade in without driving it and it was like new only being 9 months old with 6000 miles . Mine only had a 20 to 30 mph vibration . But on rough roads fortunately it wasn't noticeable but enough to drive me nuts lol and to take a big loss to get rid of it but well worth it to get my sanity back and some sleep at night .I hope and wish you much success with your lawsuit as its much deserved . -

I have a very good feeling dealers/other manufactures are aware of the GM vibration issues and it's effecting the market value so your going to take a bigger hit then normal . -

Don't be scared it's just another opinion lol . There's folks that wouldn't be caught dead in GM products fords , Rams and so on . Here's a better story for you when I was buying my new Ram I was waiting to go into finance hanging out in the service department drinking a complimentary celebration coffee lol . A gentleman was sitting next to me when my salesman came back with a owners manual and extra set of keys while I waiting since they were so busy . Anyway the guy next to me asked what I bought and I Said a new Ram q-cab and he smiled and replied your going to love it and he pointed at another Ram on the lift and said that was his getting the oil changed and has had it for five years and all he's done is change the oil and plugs . Never had a ounce of trouble and liked it so much he bought another new one but still kept this one lol said he just couldn't part with it . Hope that cheers you up lol -

For sure as it's just a matter of taste . Before the new 2014 and up Chevy/Gmc new front ends I always liked the Ram styling and really do now lol . I do like the body lines on the rear end and sides better on the Ram to they flow better . I could be partial though kind of like a proud parent Sent from my iPhone 6 using Tapatalk -

I agree on all accounts and very glad I abandoned ship and bought my Ram . What a great Truck ! I still think Chevy/Gmc has the best looking truck out there , it's just to bad they can't back up the looks . Although after one of many Vibrationless rides in my Ram when I exit the vehicle and glance back I can't help but smile and think how sexy it looks lol . Sent from my iPhone 6 using Tapatalk -

My 2015 Hemi truck is so smooth at idle you can't even tell it's running . The ride is pretty smooth to and that's priceless !My V6 Silverado I Traded in was pretty darn smooth at idle also for a 6 but just don't drive between 20 and 30mph . -

Just watched a GMC " Made with Precision " commercial . No disrespect to current owners but from my short ownership with my Silverado it made me almost fall off the couch . -

Just some info for those comparing models with the vibration issue . My 2014 Silverado was a standard cab/bed WT 17 inch rims . Vibration at 20mph up to 30 mph. Had the V6 also .... -

Congrats !! Your going to love it and as I posted a few weeks ago I did the same thing . Couldn't be happier it's like a breath of fresh air . It's so nice not vibrating and feeling frustrated during and after every ride in my Silverado . This 5.7 mated with this 8 speed transmission is amazing a long with the ride and can't believe the gas mileage I'm getting , pretty impressive .Love my new Ram ! -

Picked up my 2015 Ram last weekend and couldn't be happier after trading in my Silver-Vib. It's strange because it's like a breath of fresh air after Vibrating for 9 months I keep expecting to feel it again with my new truck , but nothing its so smooth ! It's like being on Vibration alert though lol . The only thing I miss is the looks of the front end of the Silverado but the Ram looks pretty good and has nice body lines a long with the rear end. -

Definately not because mine was vibrating only between exactly 20 and 30 mph and smooth as glass at any other speed . -

Couldn't agree more and well said , if I'm going to crash I'd rather have it happen fast then to vibrate my way off the road and I can enjoy the ride before it happens instead of being frustrated every time I got in my truck and started vibrating between 20 and 30 mph lol .This Ram with the Hemi is such a joy to drive ! I was in the service area when picking up my new Ram and was talking to this guy that had a Ram going on 5 years with no issues and all he's done is changed the oil and plugs and as matter of fact he liked it so much he bought another but kept his other one because it's been so good to him .That says a lot right there ?? -

I'm liking the interior a lot on mine especially the instrument cluster . Everything's layed out nice and the seats are super comfy for me anyway . Lots of cool compartments for storage well thought out . The material on the seats seems very durable to . -

X2 I did the same thing last weekend and couldn't be happier . 2015 Express Quad cab 5.7 4x4 love this truck and no Vibs . It feels strange after 9 months of vibrations its like a breath of fresh air . I also wish the best and good luck to all with the vib issue . -

Thanks for the link I will be checking that thread out . But I also have the rumble strip vibration with a slight harmonic like you were to have your windows down a certain way on some cars at speed and you get a very similiar sound . Although mine is between exactly 20 and 30 mph . Also for the record I have a 2wd so no front differential .
