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

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.

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.

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.

      Subtle vibration, can of worms opened.

      By Sparky176 · Posted

      Truck in fluid changes and investigate subtle shudder at cruising speeds.  Told them it felt like my ‘14’s shudder when AFM kicked in.   Dealer #1 :  You need a new torque converter.   6 weeks later, after causing other damages to my truck, I get the truck back.  Same shudder exists. New, more violent shifts and vibrations at low speed.  After choice words and a few more weeks of waiting for them to replace my running boards supports, I move on to another Dealer.   Dealer #2:  The cruising speed shudder is DFM.  (I didn’t realize truck had it.) The TCM/ECM needs updates.  Updates will solve all vibration issues.   They perform updates, truck seemed ok in lot.  Not a mile down the road, SERVICE BRAKE PAD MONITOR. Dealer #1 stated brakes were at 4mm.   took truck back to Dealer #2, rear brakes at 2mm and less than 1mm.     New pads/rotors on rear, new pads up front.   truck seems good. Toggle through menus, brake monitor system is disabled.  Huh?  Why? Turn that sucker on : SERVICE BRAKE SYSTEM!     will not reset manually, automatically, or even after pulling negative bat cable for 30min.     Could the TCM/ECM updates the culprit?    A torque converter diagnosis for a “normal” shudder and now I’m thousands in the hole and the truck still isn’t right!  Beyond pissed.

      Seats matter a lot.  I would start there - good advise here.  I had a 2018 LT Colorado before my 2026 LT Silverado, and the seats are so much better in the new one it's not even a contest.  That was one thing I always hated about the Colorado and I owned two of them spanning 10 years - but I did it so I could park in the garage mainly.  Now I have a much larger property and a huge barn so I have plenty of parking options and a full size is more useful for maintaining the property and current hobbies as well.  I wasn't evenb thinking about the seats as part of the reason for the move to the Silverado, but after two back to back 700mile road trips I am sold on the LT seats w/ leather 100%.  The other LT features are also nice - one thing I really like is the power rear window on the back window by the bed.  And the lighting in the bed is also very nice to have - I doubt that comes on the lower models.  Power tailgate - also quite useful - it's a heavy slug!  What else - I could take or leave the screen - but heated seats and steering wheel and cruise control on the steering wheel is very useable - I would never want to live without that.  Even the colorados had that.

      I think the ship has sailed on the fuel injection type - everything is getting direct now.  Does it help with mpg?  Not really and nobody buying a HD truck really cares anyway.  But that is what it is at this point.  Piston rings is something they may well adjust over time to get them right.
