Who said anything of the sort that I would be doing it. I said that those here that keep asking for a class action lawsuit, for them to get it started. I'm just here to whine about my shake rattle and roll that I just picked up two weeks ago.

I think the frustration is getting to all of us. Sometimes these post read a little different than if it was spoken. I'm going to go out and scream at my truck like it's a redheaded stepchild. But that youtube thing sounds promising. Hell, just remembered its Saturday. I'm going to the liquor store. You guys get back to the topic .

:cheers:

Well folks, I did it. After all the failed attempts at the Chevy dealer I traded it in for a 2015 Ram 1500 Larame. I have to agree with the other folks on here that have done the same thing, it was th

Apparently you and the other customer reps don't care. If you or GM would care y'all would put more effort in the matter. Just coming on the forum and stating the same repetitive posts and being a 3

Well I have some good news and bad news about my truck vibrations. Good news is that my truck has a significantly less vibration at speed. The bad news is my truck has significantly less vibration. Fo

it starts with youtube videos, that's something that reaches the masses and cant be censored or decided not to report about because tv stations don't want to lose advertising revenues. they don't come out and report anything negative about any auto maker unless its a safety issue that people get hurt over.

 

get a few hundred youtube videos reporting exactly how they treated you and the lies and BS you have to deal with and hundreds of thousands of potential vehicle buyers will buy something else not wanting to be treated the same way. that is where the average joe has power today because on youtube you are your own reporter and you can report about things honestly without censorship.

 

as to class action, that's easy, the lawyers are the ones who get silly rich on those and if a handful of people want to join in a class action against GM then lawyers will see the dollar signs and fight to be the one to lead the way on the money grab. all it takes is 5 or 6 people for starting a class action lawsuit and then once the word gets out, thousands more will want to join in. I bet the majority who post on this website will sign on to it once the class action lawsuit is started. as to what is to be gained by it I think the best to be hoped for is a forced by back on demand by anyone have vibration issues is all the owners can hope for, you wont be able to show you were damaged in any way by it so there is nothing you can claim as a bonus for your aggravation over it all. the lawyers on the other hand will be paid a couple thousand in legal fees for every member of the class action that joins so the lawyers can make millions on this so they will be very happy to represent a class action.

 

the ONE THING that GM wants to avoid at all cost is for the word to get out and the general public starts to hear about what is going on with these trucks and how customers who bought them are being treated.

 

youtube

twitter

Instagram

facebook

 

all forms of social media should be where you and everyone you know, should start spending a lot of time spreading the word far and wide about whats going on with these trucks because only then will GM be under any pressure to treat us right because they will know people are paying attention and it will directly reflect on their future vehicle sales.

I guess I'll be the first for tons of backlash from the die hard loyalists. We will see. My video is downloading now to youtube. Scott, please follow suit.

Man , I wouldn't know where to start to post a video. But will try. Ive got a few videos on I phone already. Gotta go, getting yelled at to turn over the Mac. :seeya:

Besides, I am a die hard GM buyer. Just seems wrong to drive anything else. You won't get any backlash. :chevrolet:

Okay. So here is an update on my truck. took off the 305 40 R22 tires and rims today. Went back to stock 18inch rims and new hankook winter tires. I am happy to report my vibrations are gone. Smooth as a caddy up to 160 km's. Drove the truck at 110 to 130kph for a good 45 mins and all is good now, absolutely no vibrations. I'm a happy camper again. Hope you guys figure out the vibration issues on your trucks. My issue was definately tires and balancing.

Great, take a look at my video above and tell me if this was what you were seeing in yours.

No mention of vibration in the video title? How will people find it if searching for vibration problems?

 

That's how one of the ones I test drove vibrated. You could hear the rattle.

Good point. Fixed and updated.

Have any of y'all asked the dealer about the motor mount recall fix Kuug posted a couple pages back?

 

I have not as the dealership insisted on looking at the tires first. They aren't taking me serious even after coming in twice now.

      summer road trips in the 2026 2500HD

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I thought I would use your thread and add to it as I just did my first longer drive with my truck in the last couple of days. I drove from the Grande Prairie area of Alberta down to Edmonton and most of where I drove in the city was the ring road so fairly free flowing but a bit of stop and go as well in the city. Stayed the night and returned home and not too many stops along the way each way but every restart and certainly every cold start sets it back for fuel mileage. Why I say that is I see some people will cherry pick a fuel mileage leg after the vehicle had been warmed up driveline wise before hand and its a forgiving ( easy rolling drive leg for example ) and call that their fuel mileage which can give a false perception of reality. I was not heavily loaded at all but never the less the flip bak cover, rubber bed mat, various tools etc and extra jerry cans of fuel all way up to a few hundred pounds of dead weight so its not an empty truck. The cold inflation tire pressures are set more near the freezing point so once they are warmed up driving I was showing 45 front and over 40 rear and realize high inflation pressures would help a little in fuel mileage but certainly not the ride on our crap sections of highway. The weather was good so was not raining as that can really drag mileage down, in fact I had a bit of a tail wind on average driving home. Most people on here would never have driven on that freeway to visualize it but its got a fair bit of rolling type of landscape with numerous river valleys. For the most part I had it on cruise set to 62 although kicking it off if I caught it in time before it started down shifting and self braking going down the grades. Most of the more substantial grades its shifting into 7th I believe as 8th just doesn't have it. Total distance round trip was 643 miles and my overall average and I did refuel three times in all, figured out to 17.65 miles per US gallon. My best fuel mileage section refuel within all of this figured out to 18.46 and these are all hand calculated figures. I find if anything that the trucks computer can be over optimistic, sometimes its pretty close but other times its stretching it. On paper persay in theory the truck would have just about made it on fumes for that whole drive without refueling once.    Which made me think of the topic thread of the wonder if these trucks could do 20 mpg and that is a good question, certainly would have to be on an easy going flat highway, no head wind, the right temperature, not packing around a bunch of dead weight and puttering along even slower than I was I would suspect and going steady and not stopping to smell the flowers or take a piss !. It probably is possible but not without effort to attain that with the wind resistance and weight of these trucks. Of course on my drive most people are passing me if they have the power as per loaded highway tractors, never mind a lot of speedy vehicles but the speed limit is 68 and most are at or well over that.

      Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
