2014+ owners having issues with their truck?

[anthony2558]

This thread is so long but has there been any updates to the cold start cranking issue. When it's cold out my truck cranks about 6-7 times before it starts.

Mine would also, until I had the spring flapper thingamagig removed when I had an 18" MF muffler installed. Fires immediately no matter how cold it is.

OK. Thanks for the info. I'm gonna see if I can rig it open, before I decide to remove it.

I am having starting ussues with my new 2014 Silverado which I bought just after Christmas. It has 700 miles on it and has been in the shop 3 times. It has been in the shop over a week this time. I am not tearning down the product. I am a long time GM owner. Have had 15 GM vehicles since 1960 and this is the first that I have ever really worried about. I posted this before New Years and the dealership has not received the part and claims the usual channels ar out. They say it needs a new fuse block.

I replied to you post from New Years above post #693. Did you happen to see that? Post number is on the right in the same line as your name.

I just purchased a Silverado LT last week. Prior to that, I did a ton of reading on this site, and learned a lot about it before and while researching what I wanted. Pretty basic, a 2014, 4x4 All Star edition and everything that were "must haves" on my list.

Here is my list:
The truck I purchased was a service loaner, so it had some miles on it, but still new and in prefect shape. I got what I feel like was a good deal and I'm happy with the financing the dealer got me. Oddly enough, truck was built 6-11-13 and had a sticker price of just over 42. Build the same truck as of a week ago it it comes out to 45, go figure.

It doesn't shake on the highway.
The dash isn't warped
I have the 3.08 gears and they don't feel sluggish to me at all
The 4wd knob doesn't "hum" when I put it into 4wd
The lights around the knobs don't light up, I'm kind of glad actually. There is enough going on around there all lit up already.
My seats are cold after I use the remote start, but I don't have heated seats.....so I kind of expect that. I leave my climate control on auto and when I get in, its's 72 degrees, just like I left it and the rear window is defrosted, all on its own.
I left the dealership and went on a road trip for about 500 miles. I only averaged about 15mpg, but it's cold, so I warmed it up a good hour combined over the entire weekend. Had about a 20 mph headwind at least half the trip, was in snow and 4x4 a good time of that as well. The mpg that the on-star app shows for lifetime is 18mpg. The "best" when I got it was 23.3 mpg, so I know it's capable of it for some period of time, but with the wind and winter gas, not this time.

It's a cool truck, rides nice, works well and isn't plagued by problems I thought I might have and almost stopped me from buying more than a couple times and looks awesome. I'm glad I bought it and I'm happy with the quality. I fully understand those being frustrated that are having problems. I was in the same boat with an 04 F-150. However, don't let the talk scare you. All that bad stuff, while really really frustrating and disappointing, isn't the majority of the trucks out there.

Not to be rude, but seriously Chris, how can anyone decipher this message? Please use some basic punctuation and spell check so that your message can be read and understood. I had to read it three times before even coming close to figuring out what the heck you're saying.

If my interpretation is correct, it sounds like you have "aftermarket" wheels on the truck and the dealer is calling you out for that. I can't blame them there. It would seem if the shake started after putting on the aftermarket wheels, then your first step would be to go back to the wheel seller/installer. However, based on your post, I may not be understanding your situation completely. Please clarify.

Middle of December Jonathan and Jennifer posted that gm is working on lights on knobs resolution. Haven't heard anything from either one since.

I was told today that Chevrolet will not make the LEDs work as they say that the truck was built properly and there isn't supposed to be LEDs behind the knobs.
