  1. Haha no its just in the imaginations of a select few owners...... Just a bummer the truck i want to swap it for is sitting at a dealer semi local to me but the lawyer said the process will be faster with him but could be a few months..... hope its still their.
  2. Called my local lemon law lawyer. He said they have had quite a few shakers 14 to 15s. Dident give me a specific number though. Getting him the info tomorrow to start the process
  3. Ok so after visit 3 it seemed better. Took a 3+hr drive to Ft Wayne IN. I now have a constant low dull vibe under my butt in the seat almost numbing after a long haul. No more console shake though. Much more pleseant but still not fixed..... calling the lemon lawyer Tuesday for sure now.....
  4. Call a lemon law lawyer.... no cost to you avoid the BBB
  5. Yes i will be staying w blue for sure love this color its amazing get all kinds of compliments on it and my 5 year old loves blue. Will make sure to get a 3.42 not the 3.08, will not get the z71, and will get the slider/conv package, heated cooled seats and trailer brake. MSRP is just slightly higher for the new one
  6. I called the lawyer they were short staffed due to the holiday weekend will call me Tuesday. I fou d my replacement truck (as long as it dosent vibe) at a local dealer. MSRP is a bit higher maybe $400 ill pay it
  7. Ok from i finally got her on the freeway, my normal drive in to work after picking it up last night. Most of the ride in i thought it was 100% gone but as i was playing around 75 to 80 i could still randomly feel a tiny vibe and see the console shake a bit. Much improved maybe 90% better but still present....... now to debate calling the lemon law lawyer for a final repair attempt or deal w it..... We are going to a wedding out of state so we can put some freeway miles on it
  8. Got back. Dident take a xway home so ill report back tomorrow. Puco meter was apparently 80 before now is 6. They rotated the SRAs on the rims and made sure they were perfect. Stated they tested to 88mph. GM cust care is still decideing on the Duller ATs but service said theyd give me a set anyhow off the loaner truck i had both have 2500 miles worst case
  9. I assume the same will be done to me. Wonder if the service dept will just quietly pull these tires off the rental and put them on my z71 18s.
  10. Ok so after i dropped it off for visit #3 cust care called me and said that a district rep would contact the dealer about the non All Terrain SRAs and if they will put real AT tires on my truck. Funny thing the loaner 6 banger 4x4 DC with the 18" tire upgrade has Bridgestone Duler HTs lol a tire I would not mind.....
  11. I am not afraid of a buyback trade sadly enough, we have about 8 guys at work with 2014 and 2015 sierras and silverados and only me and one other had vibes...... their are plenty of 4x4 CC Ocean Blues in the area to test. Ill even to to Ohio to get the right truck. And i have stopped maybe 20 people at Home Depot or grocery stores and no one has any idea about the issue "glass smooth" After this visit ill call the lemon law lawyer give GM the final attempt and be done
  12. Drop off for attempt #3 tomorrow. Hopefully they wont fuss too long and waste everyones time. Not sure to wait for a 2016 and hope they are better or try more 2015s
  13. Yeah i remember my first visit i made it clear i knew what was up. They said that this was the first theyve heard of it. Then after visit 2 they mentioned that a month before a guy lit them up on their service review for not fixing his vibes. So they played dumb and lied to me about never seeing or hearing of another..... this is why i hate Domestic automakers and their dealers. Deny lie deny lie deny. Until your out of warranty then oh yeah you issue is x or y and it will cost thousands to fix and will take a day. In warranty deny lie deny lie deny
  14. So at my daughters party today i talked to my neighbor who is a higher up managment/engineer at Bosch in Michigan and hes been doing some light research for me on this. This is a widely known issue in the engineering world, though the dealers are playing dumb. And he brought me the full checklist previously mentioned that the dealer needs to check (drive angles, rear end shims ect) He remembers having a test 2500 that recieved new tires and began to have vibes and the tire sidewalls werent stiff enough so they swapped brands and was fixed. Then a schoolmate of my 5 year olds dad is a engineer at GM I had forgotten this (last we talked i had no intention of buying one so soon) and they were about to leave because their youngest was freaking out but he admitted to me that this is a huge known issue with no know fix and hardly any are fixed. I wanted to get more info and pick his brain but they had to run..... so i will have to try and get in his ear soon....
  15. Ok i called cust service. Seemed to want to help about the standard tires vs AT but had no idea what i was talking about. A senior rep was contacted and she was going to call the dealership and see what can be done. I expect to be told well GY says they are AT tires..... I made it clear i was aware that all tires regardless of the upcharge were SRAs
  16. Weird. It has the all terrain logo and the all season. Cant be both. You look at tire rack or any retailer it says all season......
  17. Huh yeah i have the all terrain W.O.L. tires listed on my sticker but have the SRAs...... anyone have info on this?
  18. I may be the minority but i have a z71 and i love that the truck is very stiff/sporty i never liked the older chevys that used to float. I just wished my 76mph+ console shake would leave. Do the front stut assembly have to be removed, spring compressed, take off the top bolt and swap struts or can the struts be taken out in place? Had a hell of a time w my 08 had to pay a shop to put in bilstiens......
  19. I just wish we would skip the SRAs and go to a better tire then id bet i would be fine..... Why they play this SRA game is beyond me. The worst is 3 of the 4 tires are used takeoffs. Not excited by that either
  20. Got mine if freeway w the new in spec SRAs and it is fine intill 77mph + before it was 60+ and intermittant
  21. But i feel in may cases it is new owners googleing their vibe and find this thread But i feel in may cases it is new owners googleing their vibe and find this thread
  22. Ok im back from a few posts above. They replaced all 4 SRAs with new SRAs....... but the stock ones were way out of spec new were well within. Took the advisor and head tech out who said it was fixed. Was much better but 75 to 80 still the intermittant console to butt cheeks to steering wheel and it walks between the 3. Took it 8 miles. They were silent and said take it and we will do more resarch w GM and call me.
  23. Ok so just got a call for my 1600 mile 2015 cc z71 with the 18" rims and GY SRAs. This is attempt #2 to fix. #1 was road force stock tires saw MAYBE minimal improvement. Now they RF them again after talking to a GM tech line and 3 tires were out of spec replaced and they claim much better, but they said that the last time too. Will find out in the AM when i go grab it.
  24. A guy at work told me of a lemonlaw lawyer here in michigan who used to work for the big 3 and got his car bought back in the late 90s. Im going to call on monday and get something started and drop it off for the second attempt asap.
  25. I assume that they dident care where the tires/rims went so a bad rear became a bad front. Wonder how long i have to push for new tires or another brand and get these SRAs off
