  1. New 2023 sierra 2500 HD 4WD Standard Bed Crew Cab. From the day I bought the trucks pulls to the left and the pressure required to keep it straight makes the steering wheel tilt to right. Dealer checked alignment, swapped front tires left to right, change both front tires with new, and cannot get this thing to track straight on crowned roads or flat highways. Let go of the steering wheel and it will completely change lanes in 100 feet. GM engineer checked it and collaborated with his team and came back with it will probably eventually go away but other than that they cannot fix it. I find this to be a major problem for head on collision if distracted for a short period of time. Anyone have advice on how to figure this out because I been to the dealer 4 times and now got the answer "live with it". A truck that cost this much should not have to be tolerated in my opinion. But feel free to set me straight if I am wrong. TIA for input. Update: Took the truck to a reputable company that does alignment all day long as well as front to back alignment. The dealer agreed to pay for it if they could fix it. 2 hours after I dropped it off they called to pick up. Took it for a drive and the problem was still there but worse and to the right. Returned and asked if they actually test drove it at highway speeds and they had not. They went over all the adjustments made and most of what the dealer had set it to was out of spec. the service guy asked me for ten minutes to try something and returned my truck to me and asked me to drive it and let them know. Well it was perfect no pull either way. He did point out to me that the right front tire had a bad date code on the outside of the tire yet it was right on the inside of the tire. His 10 minute fix was to swap that tire to the right rear and the right rear to the front. All of this tire swapping was supposedly done by the dealer including 2 new front tires and that changed nothing but the front back swap fixed it all. It appears I should never ever put Goodyear Wranglers on this truck as they cant be relied upon. They are the stock tires that came on it new although it has a Michelin spare from the factory.
  2. I have a 2023 sierra 2500HD Denali that currently does not have running lights on top of cab. (NEW STUPID CALIFORNIA LAW) does not allow them to be sold with the lights in California. I have found the OEM lights and the Harness but understand you need a special punch to cut square holes in cab roof for mounting them. My first question is that the case on the 20-23 models as it was on the 15-19 models. Second question is does anyone know where to get that tool if needed on my 23. Thanks in advance.

  5. That sounds great except I signed up and posted this in the HD forum and what does HD have to do with my question.
