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:

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.

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.

    • I find it amusing the OP doesn’t realize this threads heading includes several engines. He should have posted in the off topic section if he wanted a more narrow focus. I really appreciate and find amusing that he actually pointed out one of my many vehicles. The Odyssey. That happens to use 0-20 oil. I love pushing his buttons. 
    • Maybe, but it seems he is the only one that has backed up data to prove what he is stating. I think he is doing this more because he enjoys it and wants to get the information out to us. He's got the knowledge and access to the proper equipment and having the funds doesn't hurt.  I would love to do what he is doing and would do it if and when I hit the Powerball.  I'm not a Tribologist by any means but love to learn what I can.   I would bet there would be doubting people out there if a completely independent lab with high quality work and highly respected in the automotive industry, put out information like this.  The world can't be pleased, one just has to take the information that they are given, do more of their own research to find actual lab data to back up what they are trying to figure/find out.  Most don't bother, they just want to believe what they first see.     I don't have the minimax but my 6.2 in my 2019 Silverado with 64k miles shows excellent UOA results with 0w-20 and for my own purposes 5w-20.  Since not much of a change using 5w. I liked the data sheet information on the SS 5w-20 and figured I would give it a try.  Still the same viscosity at 100℃.   In the end we all just do what makes us happy, life is too short to get upset over trivial social media.   On a side note, I do feel GM has dropped the ball and just cares about the bottom dollar and not quality anymore.  "Like a Rock" has been long gone.  Seems "Built Ford Tough" has as well.
    • Better than stock but that's like putting lipstick on a pig
    • Hello, my 3 month old Sierra Elevation wont recognize a trailer with electric brakes? All the lights work correctly, but no power to the brakes?   This is the factory installed brake controller. If you manually push the knob, the display shows the power % but does not light up like my 2022 silverado.   I have an appointment with the dealer, but was checking to see if anyone else has seen this issue.    Thanks, 
    • Been using SS 0w-20 from new, but wanted to change to the 5w-20 because I liked the data on the data sheet, to me it seems like a little better product. But as you can see, not much difference. This is also with running a mix of 10 gallons E85 to a tank topped with 93. It isn't a flex fuel vehicle so any higher I get a CEL for running lean on both banks. Yes my mileage takes a hit. Instead of 20 mpg I normally get on trips I get 17mpg. This is also using EaO17 filter.  What is amazing is I have the AMSOIL cone filter on it since I have the GM Performance intake installed and that air filter has 44k miles on it.  I just take it out and shop vac it off once a year.  I use the upholstery tool on my shop vac.  Works well.
