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

These trucks drop in value real quick. My MSRP was $51665 and the current KBB with 4900 miles is from $39000 - $41000.

But lets be real.. Nobody pays close to MSRP. I paid $10k under MSRP.. KBB is more than what I purchased mine for.

I don't trust KBB anymore as there estimates for selling to a Private party are always too close to the what the dealer trader in will be. When I sell a car on AutoTrader, I will see how much the same vehicle is advertised as used from dealers. People are willing to pay that price as they know real value of the car. KBB used to be more reliable, in my opinion, the car companies and KBB are working together. I just did KBB on my 2014 Sierra Denali with 2,000 miles on it, the estimate was $42K. give me a break. That reminds me, I need to get GM to buy this truck sooner than later.

Anyone tried Black Book? That's supposed to be the newest thing that's more reliable than Kelly Blue Book. I don't know too much about it as I just recently found out about it.

I tried to use black book the other day but it wanted me to pay for a subscription to use it

 

nada has sucked for a long time and kbb wasn't much better but had higher values for things so that's why most people used it as a reference.

 

I used a dealers "value your trade in" on my truck but they didn't have a 2014 option so I used the 2013 and the msrp price for my truck was $30,770 and they said a 2013 model with 1200 miles was valued at $18,000 if I traded it in. now that's a 2013 price but I bet the 2014 wouldn't fetch more then maybe $1,000 more then that.

 

if anyone has or knows of a link to use an accurate "free" car valuation calculator please share since im pretty sure im going to seriously be looking at used trucks if I can get my buy back so I want to know the fair values on them.

What about TrueCar.com?

they only give prices on new vehicles so you get the best deal.

 

if you select find used cars, they just send you to a list of cars for sale but there is no option to get correct values for those

I filed with BBB becouse GM and my GMC dealer keep giving me the run around. We will see what happens from here. Next move will be lemon law lawyer. 1 month old and 1300 miles now. GM and Dealer do not care what you say,they say it will take time to figure this out and hope you go away. But guess what, Nope!!!!

So I went to the dealer last week to see what kind of deal they would work for me. Manager of after sales said pay the difference in MSRP for a 2500 duramax minus $1000 customer satisfaction money.. I said give me an extended warranty and/or 0 percent and I will sign the papers... Apparently they didnt think my vibration problems along with the other problems ive had totaling 35 days in the shop were serious and they said no so I filed with the BBB. Today someone from GM calls after the BBB complaint and offers me a WORSE deal.. difference between 105% of msrp for my truck MINUS milage which works out to be almost the MSRP for my truck. So now they want me to pay the difference and arent giving me the 1000.00. What incentive do I have to NOT file a lemon law suit. Cant believe it.

I dont think it matters, its up to the district manager of after sales for that dealership.. my dealership called me after they found out I filed the BBB complaint and said the DM said the deal is off the table since thier is a complaint at the BBB..So now I am dealing with someone from GM resolution dispute office and thats what they offered me

Gm has big problems....!

Can you imagine how many others out there who have this problem but haven't joined a forum, and think their truck is the only one with issues.

With the new lower tow ratings and radio, seat, rust, tranny shift issues, and vibrations this truck has been a complete failure to date, good looking truck but troubles that may lead into failures.

The part I can't figure out is GM must know the problem by now, and what or why is stopping them from implementing a fix.

Could it be the truck would be too costlyto fix now.

I now have a dodge ecodiesel, and it has been a great truck mechanically so far this 8 speed shifts so smooth, comfy seat no movement, radio keeps a signal with no loss, no vibrations, with certified tow numbers, and 420lb

of torque while sipping fuel.

I like the look of the Sierra better, but this Ram has my blessing after GM bought my truck back.

Guess what tires are on the Ram... Goodyear SRA wranglers 20" no vibrations at 39 psi recommended.

 

Boys and girls don't wait for this mess to sort it self out or you will loose your buy back (mileage), history will prove the fix will come, but not for us that bought early.

      Cam chain tensioner question

      By B14Sierra · Posted

      So I'm in the middle of a DOD AFM delete on my 6.2 L86 Sierra. I had a pick holding the tensioner but after I got the Cam phaser gear off I was cleaning off all the rtv and apparently I didn't have the pick seated far enough in. I bumped it and the tensioner sprang forward.  I think everything is good but I want a second opinion. The top of the tensioner is just a looped piece of plastic that rides in that channel right? There is no spring or anything is there? I got the gear and chain back on and it seems tight and everything looks right. I'm hoping nothing fell out.

      No low range 4 x 4

      My 2015 1500 LTZ Silverado suddenly won't go into 4 x 4 low. It will go into 4 x 4 high.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Yep, just a quick reference point.    My main point being I’d do a thousand other things before I’d pay 10k for a transmission.    Speaking in ignorance cause I don’t look at these trucks, what is it worth? 20k?

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

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I think users are going to want to pick their monitored parameters, which parameters they want to see first.    It should probably start with baseline at a minimum and adjust to learned, but be able to overlay baseline for comparison.   A simple severity level would be able to determine what type of alerting is appropriate or user selectable.    Why not use the OBD port though?   I think a phone connection would be a good idea, push notifications type deal.   Number 1 issue is having data is useless if you don’t know what the data should be under normal conditions.

      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.
