Transient

Could've meant many things Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

I've been doing a bit of research, and it appears this has been a known issue for Silverados for a few generations. Oldest incident I found went back 15 years. There's even a thread on this forum about it for the K2s. It looks like it may be a bushing issue. Here's a video I found on YouTube with an older Chevy that explains the bushing issue. I'll look into it when I get a chance to determine if this is what happened on my truck. I don't see why GM wouldn't warranty this, but if they don't it's good to know it's cheap to replace and easy to repair. I'll keep everybody updated. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

I've heard of lots of Explorer sunroof issues, but not the F150 Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Update: Every time I open the tailgate it keeps trying to dismount from the lower right corner. I cannot find an obstruction that is trying to push the tailgate up as it is opening. I have a tonneau cover on my truck, but that's not the issue either. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

This morning I walked up to my truck, pressed the tailgate open button on the tailgate to open it, and it came down hard like the dampner wasn't working. My hands were full with 2 laundry bags in one hand and my dog and his leash on the other. I was not able to catch it. Fortunately, the limiting cable caught it and prevented damage. Upon inspection the tailgate came off the post on the lower right corner. The post didn't rotate, therfore preventing me from being able reattach it. I'm on vacation, and this happened in the hotel parking lot. There is a Chevy dealer near the hotel and I was able to go there and have them put a wrench on the post and rotate it so the tailgate would remount. Upon further testing the tailgate still wants to come out on its own when opening. The dealer thinks the tailgate gap cover may be causing an issue. I find it to be an interesting theory since that gm accessory has been on since late December and I've had zero issues until now. It's not even damaging the painted surfaces near it. Is anybody else having this issue? Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

If you go to gmfleet.com and do some digging around you'll find the full list of SEO colors. I found this image in another thread on the forum via Google Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

I'm understanding the issue some are complaining about regarding noisy tires. I'm Chevrolet experiencing that, too. However, I think it might be an issue with road surface, and not so much the tires. I could be wrong. A few days ago I was in San Diego. I never heard my tires. Over the weekend I drove to Salt Lake City. It's been cold, and I'm hearing the tires a lot more. This week I'll pay attention to determine if temperature is an issue. It was in the 30s yesterday. Will be 70s by Friday. I also wonder if altitude may be an issue. Not just in regards to air density, but also how air density affects the building of roads/chemical composition of the materials used, and the porosity of the surface. Just a thought that I'm thinking out loud. I don't know anything, but would love to learn from anybody who does know. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

As I said several posts up, further discussion should have a new thread. Let's not hijack this one. I'll be more than happy to argue with you about it there. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

More air would also mean more fuel since the computer will be commanding a proper AFR. If it's going to run lean then it isn't compensating by increasing the fuel for a stoich AFR. Is then questing whether or not the fuel rail and/or the fuel injectors can prevent heat soak of the last cylinder in line. Without a proper tune, and/or complete knowledge of the fuel system capabilities, is be concerned about running a larger throttle body. There's just a bunch I don't know about the current powertrain, and none of it is being discussed here. However, further discussion should have its own thread to avoid hijacking this thread. I'm interested in the mod, and the info. Hopefully you'll start a new thread. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

OP is looking for a Custom Trail Boss. The 5.3 in that trim gets the 6-speed, not the 8-speed. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

From the time my sale was complete to the time I received my truck was 2 weeks. Truck was already in transit when I first stepped into the dealership to buy a truck. Your "deposit" scenario isn't always applicable. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

With no ability to tune, will a large throttle body yield any benefits? Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

If deal for AT4 parts with pgamboa fell through, I'll buy all of those parts Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

That dealer sounds like a dick. I hope I never encounter them. Regarding what I said earlier, does GM know if the truck is sold and paperwork completed when the truck is ordered and they have provided a VIN? I'm SPECULATING they operate from the assumption it is. If they're going to issue a $50 credit for a truck that was ordered PRIOR to the change in production then the customer, and the customer refuses, then GM has a legal problem on its hands. Again, I don't know the individual details with each and every customer. I'm just replying based on my knowledge of contract law and having my own businesses. I'm not a lawyer, but simply offering my opinion, which responders have failed to sway. At this point we're getting off topic. If we wish to further this conversation perhaps we should start a new thread. Otherwise, I'm content with letting this topic die here. Regardless, imo, I think you have every reason to be frustrated. As I said previously, I would be, too. It's disappointing to hear about these types of scenarios. I hope things get resolved for you soon. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Just imagine the looks Ford Raptor owners have been getting for the last decade when they tell people they're offroading $70,000 trucks. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

I searched a week ago for a Custom TB w/ 6.2 for my neighbor. That trim and engine combo are unicorns. I searched California, Utah, Nevada, and got 0 hits. Found one in Flagstaff, AZ that is blue. My neighbor didn't want blue. Working with a dealer he found a white one in Texas that he should have in his driveway in about a week. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Do you have info for this? Last I checked, which was back in August, I was told GM abandoned the upgrade program. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Rear OE wheel well liners are the fuzzy type. I installed them on my truck myself. I still don't understand why people say they are hard to clean. I don't find them to be that way. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Gangly in post #8 has a valid point. Every GM vehicle I've ever bought in the last 15 years brand new has had an electrical gremlin pop up within the first few hundred miles, and all were somehow associated with the brakes. I snag a code via OnStar immediately and get it into the dealership asap. By the time I get it into service the code has cleared, the tech can't find out repeat the problem, and they send me on my way. My 2020 Trail Boss was no different. It happened between 100-200 miles on the odometer. It was never test driven by another potential customer because I bought it while it was en route to the dealer. The electrical gremlin made an appearance while I was driving down the hoary with the cruise control set. I want using the brakes at all. I waited several weeks for the truck to arrive. Now, to answer the original question, I waited 3 weeks before going on a trip. By that point I had over 900 miles of driving around town, etc doing the best I could to get some mileage on it. I knew at the end of the 3 weeks I was driving from Virginia Beach, VA to San Diego, CA. This trip took me about a month because I stopped to visit family in various locations throughout the country. The next electrical gremlin didn't appear until I was only a few hours away from San Diego. Iirc, I had about 5,000 miles on the odometer by that point, and I had only owed the truck about 6-7 weeks. Pulled into the closest gas station, turned off the truck, then started it back up, and everything was good again. Again, when it happened the cruise control was set. Since that incident, nothing else has happened. Just completed a drive from San Diego to Salt Lake City over the weekend. I'm now over 12,000 miles, and has zero problems. Imo, following the break in procedure will allow electrical gremlins to reveal themselves and you'll be able to get them out before you head onto your 700 mile trip. For what it's worth, San Diego to Salt Lake City is about 750 miles. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Iirc, if it's installed by the dealer before you take delivery it'll be part of the 3 year/36,000 mile warranty. After you receive the truck I think that goes down to 12 months/12,000 miles. I could be wrong, so don't take my word for it. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

I think the real question is, if GM allowed a truck to be delivered that didn't have the hardware it was suppose to be built with, which customer would sue for breach of contract? It's a tough spot to be in, and I feel frustrated for those who are stuck in it. However, if also want the product I ordered to be delivered a I had ordered it. Hopefully the wait you guys have to endure isn't much longer. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
