The Tos

currently getting my third axle and second from diff put in. After I already got a settlement from GM.

I did this today on my dual exhaust z71 and it sounds great. Thanks for the info and pics, really easy to do.

Did you just swap out your muffler? That is what I am looking to do. Which muffler did you go with?

Does anyone know the pipe sizing for the in and out of the muffler?

Is the inlet and outlet 2.75? I was looking at flow master and didn’t see a muffler with that sizing.

From what I heard from my dealership there is a new bulletin, PIP5653D, which came out 10/09/2019. Hopefully there is additional information of it. I did file a claim through Lemon Law here in New York. New York Lemon Law attorneys dont cost anything, win or lose. We reached a cash settlement with GM in order for me not to pursue any further legal action specifically to this issue. GM will still honor my warranty to further fix this issue and any other issues that might come up.

I had the repair done listed in the bulletin. After about 1000 miles the noise is back. Has there been any updates to the bulletin or any progress on repairs?

I got mine done a few weeks ago and I haven't heard the jingle come back yet. Probably been close to 400-500 miles since the repair.

The bulletin is PIP5653. My replacement parts are ordered. Was told theyd be here in two days, so probably on monday with the weekend.

I had to call my dealership to tell them to order the parts.

Win or lose I pay nothing out of pocket. If I win, GM is liable for my attorney fees.

I started a claim with a Lemon Law attorney yesterday. I went through GM first and they were little to no help at all through this. Ill keep you posted throughout this journey now.

I spoke with my dealership last week, they said there isn't a fix yet. I have my first oil change tomorrow so I will try to ask a little more about it.

19 RST z71 Crew Cab 5.3 8 speed 3.23 rear end Towed my Travel Trailer roughly 500 miles, majority highway. Camper weighs 6600lbs empty, loaded and gear in the bed of my truck probably close to 8000lbs total. averaged 8.5 mpg

I tried going through GM for them for the buyback but they said no twice. I am hearing tomorrow or friday what they are offering me to compensate for my truck being down for so long. After that I might consider going through BBB. The squeaking is getting so annoying.

Anyone have any updates with this fix? I haven't seen anything yet.

Mine is a lease so offering an extended warrant won't mean anything.

I have been speaking with a Sr Adviser at GM/Chevy for a few weeks now. We submitted my request for buyback last week and I will hear their initial response tomorrow. Tomorrow will also be 4 straight weeks that the dealership has had my truck. Was also informed last week that there is a "ding" on my quarter panel now. The adviser said that if my request gets denied the first time we can re-submit a request any time something new happens. So if it declined, I plan on re-submitted with the new info of my truck being damaged in their possession.

Wow, 75 days and counting? I am going through a senior customer rep with Chevy for my axel issue. He just submitted my request for buyback a few days ago and I’ll have an answer next week. I doubt they will buy it back with the first request. Also heard from the dealership yesterday that there is a “ding” on my rear quarter panel now too, while in their possession.

How did you get it fixed?

Tomorrow will be three weeks that my truck has been at the dealer for this. And this is the second time. Starting to get frustrated paying for a truck I can't use.

It would make sense that my build date would be before 01/19. I got my truck at the end of 02/19. Anyone have much experience with having GM buyback a vehicle?

I am not sure. I'd say ill check my truck but....... is there another way to check?

I am having the same issues for my truck as well. I have it in for the second time, this time is at 18 days currently. They are "working" with GM engineering on the issue and I have already opened a claim for a replacement with Chevy. On Friday they received the replacement CV axle which they believe is causing the issue. After installing they informed me it is still hitting in the same point the original one was. They drove it for a few mins and said there wasn't a noise, which is normal since the noise doesn't start until after 15 mins of straight driving. They said they are aware that its not fixed but GM has told them to wait because an appropriate fix isn't ready yet. I have another issue where there is a bad rattle in my dash behind the glove box they still haven't addressed yet either. The dealership wanted me to pick up my truck, knowing its not done yet. I told them I am not comfortable with that and don't want it back if its not fixed, especially since they haven't fixed the dash rattle yet. I am not happy at all. I have a follow up call with the Sr Adviser that is helping with my case. These new further frustrations from yesterday will definitely be relayed. At this point I just want a replacement truck. I don't want this one with the multiple issues and it being taken apart and put back together several times, with more to come since its not closed to be fixed yet. The worst part is I am continuing to pay for this truck that is not in my possession at all.

I have a '19 RST Z71 but my cluster doesnt have a spot for an SD card. Can this be done any other way? Would love to upgrade.
