  1. It’s to bad they have all these issues. It’s clearly the best looking truck out there and the 6.2 is awesome. the axle is floating while in 2 wheel drive and falling towards the differential and bouncing back and forth.
  2. Buy what you want, it’s a design flaw. I agree it moving laterally, but to the low point which is the pumpkin. it’s called gravity. If they new a simple fix like replacing an axle, they would have done fixed it.
  3. This is just to get you thru the warranty after which the say, change the oring for 750.00. It is a geometry issue where the stub shaft falls to the low point. The oring is just a temp cushion until it fails. Get an extended warranty or learn to replace yourself or just turn up the Bose
  4. Did you ever figure out the root cause? Was it a geometry issue?
  5. Great looking truck! Glad you stuck to it and got a safer and more reliable truck. You can make some money as a consultant.
  6. Another point, Low Battery Voltage? Are they saying the alternator is WAY to small so your battery voltage just drops as you are driving? Then you lose your braking? WTF, total BS. The tech that worked on mine always had a charger on it during system updates. That was 8 freakin months ago and standard practice. GM, is BS-ing ya all. To get mine to work, we shut off all the fun stuff, lane keep, crash avoidance, auto updates, cancel on star etc... just turn everything off possible and drive to your next favorite brand and trade in it. You and your family will be a lot safer.
  7. Do you see anywhere That it states a loss of braking Power? Just go into your dealer and tell them your peddle feels hard. Lol I feel for you guys and gals that made the same mistake I did. It wAs the the best looking and biggest pos I ever owned. Are you guys really going to depend on this truck now that you know the brakes will fail with any heavy processing load? Run it into a parked car at Walmart and let you insurance co get after GM
  8. Fourth quarter: GM reported Silverado sales rose 1% to 163,341. Fourth quarter: Ram sales rose 7% to 172,579. For the year: Silverado sales slipped 2% to 575,600. For the year: Ram sales rose 18% to a record 633,694. That's right, Ram sales topped the Silverado by 10.1% for 2019. guess everyone likes to have brakes!
  9. Those charges are BS. Ford tried that in 13 when I bought a total lemon eco boost. I was able to prove I put milage on another vehicle and wanted the same rate they got. I settled for 75% rate. I still lost just over 2k on the whole ordeal. Considering all the issues, especially the brakes, you guys did well. Great job!
  10. So one needs to keep it a secret that the brakes are failing. That’s what you want? Someone should not have to die before it is fixed. Remember the Toyota braking issue? He has every right to voice his opinion and ask for help without you beating on him.
  11. There are some shady things happen at some dealerships. Some caused by lazy techs. I feel for ya, but when do you call BS and enough is enough. Dumping it like I did is extremely costly. Wishing you luck!
  12. Did you get the old parts or did you see them? I find it hard to believe GM would make that big of mistake. I would tend to believe the mechanics only did part of the work.
  13. They fix all kinds of rattles under warranty. That letter is there fix unless you force them. They know what’s wrong and at least one way to fix it. It’s a numbers game now, they know very few will push the issue. Those that do will get compensated. Say 10k trucks effected, they know 90 percent will accept the dealers claim nothing is wrong. So that leaves 1000. Of those 80 percent will take the warranty, that leaves 200 to buy back or repair. So what’s cheaper to fix at 3k per truck? 1000 repairs at 3000 ea. Or 200 at 3k? 3 million vs 600k. Of the 600k, they just resell the returned truck with no warranty and reduce there cost to only the difference between their cost to build a new truck vs resale of the returned truck.
  14. Yes, it’s a short drive to the Jeep dealer
  15. Maybe it’s more of a geometry issue that the lift kit fixes.
  16. Remember, they were fixing them or at least trying. That is clear cut proof there is a problem. It is evidence in your favor. If it is true that the GM stuff is fine, it tells you two things. 1. The AAD stuff is defective in some way. 2. GM will never fix the issue because they already have the fix in hand. They are just stringing you out until they don’t have to pay. You have an easy case, but, you will never get anything unless you go the lemon law and hire attorney for that. GM choose to use an outside vendor and they are responsible. They already admitted a problem and have a fix for it. They can make all the excuses they want, facts are in.
  17. Jay Dankovich GM Service Operations Mail Code 480-204-015 30501 Van Dyke Ave. Warren, MI 48090
  18. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Cooling-Off Rule allows you to cancel a contract when you purchase something at your home or at a location that is not the permanent place of business for the seller. But not all sales can be canceled under this rule. Exemptions include sales that are under $25, goods or services that are not designed for use in the home, sales made by mail or over the phone, a sale that is arranged from prior discussions at the seller's permanent place of business, goods or services needed for an emergency, and repairs to personal property that are solicited by the buyer. The Cooling-Off Rule does not cover transactions that involve real estate, securities or insurance, automobiles sold at a temporary location (as long as the seller has a permanent place of business) and arts and crafts sold at fairs
  19. Personally, I think GM boxed themselves in. They were repairing them because it was defective and now nothing. It’s going to be hard to say nothing is wrong and don’t need repaired at some point. Unless you get some spoon fed arbitrator or judge that never mowed their own lawn, they will see it. It’s a numbers game now. GM sells what 180k in trucks, let’s say 1% is effected. That’s 1800 jingles, maybe 5% of those go thru the hassle. So they make 90 people whole by upgrading them to a new unit vs spending 2-3k on 1800 trucks. Hire an attorney, you will get a new truck
  20. Hind site is 20-20, but damm you should have returned the truck the same day. You have 72 hrs to back out of a contract.
  21. What choice do you have? GM refuses to fix it. So, .......
  22. I never said easy. The only recourse is a good attorney. GM will not spend thousands of dollars on these trucks without a fight. GM has clearly taken a calculated risk that these units will hold up through the warranty period.
