    GM made me remove my leveling kit before they would send an engineer. I removed it and put in the shop. Engineer did the same shit and it's "in spec". No further claims to be warrantied.

    Wouldn't get your hopes up. Dealer has replaced 11 of my tires. No change in vibration.

    After my 7th visit in June where I was told that the truck is in spec and nothing else they can do I got the BBB involved and filed a claim against GM. 24 hours later the regional rep was calling me saying they wanted to look at my truck again. So back in it goes. 8th visit (18 days). Has been in the shop cumulatively 56 days since new (6/15). They replaced two more tires (7 total) on the rear as well as the rear shocks (leaking), alignment RFB and PICO. Direct quote from paperwork, "On test drive felt no abnormal vibration 50-70 mph, after tire warm up felt vibration above 75, ran PICO found readings within NORMAL SPECS. RFB all tires. FT tires 5#s and 8#s, no change since last visit. Rear tires change and were at 25#s and 15#s, replaced tires per GM engineer." The vibration is still there but a little more subtle than it was when I dropped it off. I'll give it a week or so of driving before I start making more calls.

    Well after my latest "it's in spec" from GM I decided to get the BBB involved just to see if they could do anything. Not 24 hours after I filed the initial claim the regional division rep leaves me a voicemail saying they want to take another look at it and get a field engineer some time with it. Well see what happens.

    Welp GM has made their final repair attempt for my vibration issues. 3 weeks ago they asked me to take my leveling kit off so they can move past tires. I complied and returned it to the dealer. In the 9 days they had it they re-rfb'd the tires with the proper hub mount for the balancer (why they didn't have this in the first place boggles the mind) and then ran the 3 way PICO and found it to be "in spec". What pisses me off is the assistant manager was backing me up for about a month agreeing with my assessment that there was an abnormal vibration. And after this latest attempt where the vibration has changed but not gone away at all, he puts on his turn coat and says it's "within gm spec". Told the GM CS rep I've been dealing with that the series of events makes no sense and that I am not satisfied with the results. Waiting to hear back. Truck has been at the dealer cumulatively 38 days and 215 miles for "vibration analysis".

    6/3 - I get a call from dealer stating that after the last pico scope test GM wanted me to take my level kit off before they can proceed any further than tire diagnostic. Annoying but alright, I'll play along. I took it off that weekend. 6/7 - Drop it off again. Gm - We're gonna pico it again oh and there's an engineer that will be here Friday (6/10) to look at yours and another truck with similar issues. 6/13 - We are waiting on a tool from GM for the balance machine that is hub mount rather than the traditional cone mount. Will re-pico after the balancing of tires is complete. Oh an the engineer never got a chance to look at your truck. You've got to me !Q$#^%$ kidding me. You've had it a week and have done nothing. GM has replaced 3 of my 4 original tires, swapped two more complete set of tires of different brand/sizes and have balanced tires I believe a total of 8 times now. It's been at the dealer a total of 36 days from purchase focusing mainly on tire analysis. IT'S NOT THE @#$%%^$# TIRES.

    Ha wow. I worked in a tire shop through college and I never saw that much ever. That's incompetence at the highest level. Doesn't matter what the machine says that's never right.
  17. tootall87
    Get mine back tomorrow. They put another brand of tires on it and surprise it didn't help. Now according to GM they want me to remove my level kit before they proceed beyond tires. So guess what I'm doing this weekend.... so frustrating. GM is starting to leave a bad taste in my mouth.

    Got my truck back yesterday after a week at the dealer. They swapped out my stock 18s with a set of 17s and 20s from the lot with different brand tires. Ass. Service manager drove it each time and confirmed vibration didn't improve with either set. Transmission/driveline guy swears it's in the tires... Sooo GM is sending me 4 brand new tires from a different brand, not SRAs, and the ASM says well take it from there. Says we'll get it worked out, he's just going through the GM routine. Can't say anything bad about the dealer. They're doing their job and just dealing with the GM circus while keeping me updated. I'm just glad they haven't fed me the "it's normal" game the first dealer I went to tried to play.

    First time I involved the dealer was my first oil change so about 5-6k. Balance,multiple rfb, 3 out of 4 tires replaced and they're still working on it. Mine varies in intensity. It's not shaking the coffee out of my cup but it's bad enough that I don't enjoy driving the truck anymore. It gave me a headache after a 3 hour drive a few weeks ago. Dealer acknowledges the vibration and is at least putting g up the effort to figure it out. They're waiting on an engineer to come take a look at the transmission/driveline.

    I've gotten 3 out of the 4 replaced on GMs dime. I haven't had to pay for anything and it's at the dealer on it's 7th vibration related visit. 18,xxx miles. Get your money back then find a new dealer.
  21. tootall87
    Bummer. I feel ya bud! I'm still trying to work with my dealer on mine. Just a shame how bad of a taste this leaves in your mouth.
  22. tootall87
    Because I don't need a forum jockey telling me my problem doesn't exist. Good day.
  23. tootall87
    Second video doesn't show it as badly as you can see the video itself is shaking too. It's not "little bit of water" like it may seem from the video. I had to stop on my last cross country trip the seat shook so bad it gave me a headache. Please tell me again how normal you think this is.

    Dropped mine off for vibration service #5. Took the service manager on a test drive and he said, "yup it vibrates". I also handed him a print out of the autoguide article. He said it's the first he's seen it. I got a 16 loaner and it rides almost identical and I'll use that in my defense if they try to shove the "effects amplified by leveling kit" bullshit at me again. Videos of my vibration.

    I got the motor mount shims done about 10k ago. Still get the idle vibration.
