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

Sorry for the bad news... Believe me, lots of people here found this forum the exact same way. Good luck, and hope you have some time and patience to deal with the dealer. Oh btw, welcome to the forum.

Thnks Rob, I appreciate it.

Nope, good assumption though since most people feel it most on smooth roads. All asphalt for this ride though. Sawgrass expressway in south florida for first leg and drove perfect. Turnpike for the rest of the way and was less than desirable. My truck is actually completely smooth on concrete roads as well unlike a lot of people with this issue. I already had one truck bought back by GM and I don't have hardly any issues with this one other than the fact it doesn't like certain roads.

My 2014 lt doesn't *23,000+* miles sry 3000+ are having problems. .. im betting most of u guys have short beds and trucks that are made in the USA. Sry i just think this is so funny... for 18,000 miles my truck was stock hight before i leveled it and better tires. And all it dose is keep trucking. I think 90% of the post on this thread are a joke. I've been in 4,,, 2014 so far and never heard or seen anything. All the trucks I've been in have been CC 6.5 beds 2 gmc and my chevy and my buddys chevy.

Still trying to decipher if this is some form of Ebonics.....

well lets see, you think your opinion of a truck is not a 2wd short bed? interesting how narrow minded you are.

 

next you want video proof lol. well troll I have had my video on youtube for months now along with many other GM truck owners with vibration issues but you wouldn't know that since you are in denial and not interested in seeing the truth.

 

next you make some snarky moronic claim about people cant afford their truck and are inventing problems to get out of paying for them? you must be on serious drugs (or if not then you should be)

 

and you finish up saying your truck has no problems, well that's just great and I am happy for you, but no one ever said every single truck has issues but you wish to make the claim since your truck doesn't have isssues then by your warped logic that means nobodies truck can have issues.

 

this forum is for people who are having issues with their trucks so please go troll elsewhere like the price paid forum where its all about dealer reps and salesmen saying these trucks don't have problems, you will fit right in over there.

 

have a nice day colosus

I've watched your vids keakar.

 

Bottom line, there is problems out there, GM would not be buying back as they are.

 

It is hit and miss with the trucks, and I think some people are overreacting to the slightest vibe or bump' including me at times.

 

Overall I'm happy with mine also, but I've been at the dealership and looked in a side room at 2014 rear ends sitting on the floor, swaps secondary to vibes. I ain't calling anyone out, but that is fact.

Hahaha, I am right there with you. I wanted to respond to the post but figured it wasn't worth the time. I am happy for people that have trucks that are smooth and operate normally. That doesn't mean mine doesn't vibrate like crazy and is not operating normally.

 

I guess with 6 billion people on this planet, there will always be those few that really just don't get life in general. I especially love the comment about not being able to afford the payment.....

sry , for me having a opinion gl vibrating down the roads

Having an opinion is not an issue but you need to present it in a constructive way. Lumping everyone together and claiming that they are making up vibrations because they can't afford the payment makes no sense. People have trucks that shake, dealers have acknowledged this. My dealer has had two other trucks vibrate and they certainly are not the only dealer seeing the issue. I am happy you have a smooth running truck but you have no reason to stereotype or bash others because their trucks have issues.

 

Also, your argument gets worse if you can't construct coherent sentences in your posts.

I believe you are correct that we may be sometimes over reacting to vibration, but I believe that is because there IS an issue and no answers from GM. I wish GM would come forward and clarify what are the know problems and what are just design characteristics. IMHO, open dialogue would be very beneficial in sorting this out.

I concur 110% with your statement.

My dealer has several vibrating trucks, I was the first to put LT tires on, and correct the vibe, they just put a set of LT bridge stones on another truck, and it smoothed it out. Seems that's the fix

 

seansharley,

 

Do you think this could be because of the fact they are overall better tires with less roadforce than the stock goodyears, or do you think it is because of the construction of the LT tires? Just curious as I put Toyo Open Country P-rated tires on and they ride great on very smooth roads all the way up to 85mph, but when I am on other (not so great) asphalt roads it shimmys pretty good so maybe LT tires are the way to go for me.

 

I know it will be a tad stiffer ride with the LT on cracks and bumps etc, but do you overall feel less road imperfections? I am curious since these frames are so stiff, if the P-rated tires are actually absorbing the bumps but reverberating and sending some kind of frequency through the truck whereas the LT just absorbs them.

 

For me I know the truck is fine (tires and mechanically) since it is extremely smooth on certain roads but other roads seem to drive it nuts.

 

Any insight would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Another week of waiting on General Motors :nonod:

 

It sure looks great sitting on the service row :tumbleweed:

 

It's so sad it only has 1,100 miles on it. What's even worse is I only put 400 miles on it

since I picked it up on 10/18/2014 !

 

For those who understand, no explanation is needed. For those who do not understand, no explanation is possible.

I spent the day at the dealer today for the vibration at 45-55 mph and they determined that 3 out of the 4 goodyear gsa passenger tires were out of round. Im am replacing the tires with LT michelins to hopefully correct the issue

      There's some truth to the above, but also, she's selling fullsize trucks and bread/butter CUV's like hotcakes, meanwhile, extracting GM's pickups from the deep discounting sales game.   GM's stock has held its own during her tenure, and the more recent buybacks are delivering cash back to investors and signal confidence in their direction forward. Even with the EV losses.   GM is an example of a modern publicly traded company. The #1 goal of any publicly traded company is to deliver the most value possible to shareholders. Despite being a car company, building the best car isn't GM's path to delivering maximum shareholder value.   McDonalds doesn't make the best burger, or the best coffee.   I've mentioned in another thread, I really don't / won't ever understand Cadillac or Buick in a modern context. Both brands are completely dead to me. I'll cede that the Escalade is a nice SUV, but the brand and nameplate mean nothing to me, and GM will never persuade me to pay north of $170k for a gussied-up Tahoe or Burb. Other people don't mind doing that and that's their purview.   The C8 shares absolutely nothing in common with any other current Chevrolet or Corvette on the market. Since its introduction 8 years ago, it's developed quite the following. It did what other Corvettes couldn't do: reduce the average age of its buyer. GM has something there, and I see them investing in the car. They'd better not mess that up.   We've successfully derailed Grumpy's thread again, but I think this one is meant to be more of a random thought thread so a little wandering is probably OK.

      Sliding doors ftw   Also, Sienna ftw as well.  The in-laws got a 2024-2025 recently when their 2019 sienna was totaled due to a deer back in June.  They've been getting 38-40mpg on the 65mph highway they live on.

      07 yukon xl 6.2 stalls at hot idle and wont restart

      Forgot to mention that this started after changing the oil I use mobile 1 full syn with mobile one filter but I did add pro lube additive and was the first time doing so and is making me wonder just can't see why that would matter

      07 yukon xl 6.2 stalls at hot idle and wont restart

      By xdieselmechanic · Posted

      I apologize for long post put going to try to explain everything. Parts replaced so far: Cam sensor Crank sensor Cam phaser valve Cam phaser solenoid Fuel pump Maf 1 injector Pcm Pdm   So about 2 weeks ago coming off the highway my 2007 yukon xl with the 6.2 stalled and would restart. Had unit towed back to house and I messed around with relays and unit started. Drove it the next day and same thing. Had it towed again. Scanned unit and had code p0300 with misfire data showing mainly cylinder 7 but I know that won't cause a no start. Measure fuel pressure and found only 42 psi replaced pump to have unit stall again and not restart. This time I stayed on back roads and just waited for it to restart about 30 to 60 min. During this time I found I have no injector pulse but have good power at injectors. Started unplugging 1 injector at a time and found when unplugging cylinder 7 pulse came back so i changed injecto and same issue. Turns out unit just happen to ready to start at that time. Scanned into unit and found no reason for the pcm to take away injector pulse so I replaced the pcm and same issue. I figured timing sesnor controlled the injector pulse so I replaced both sensors and while I had the water pump of i replaced the vvt components while i was in there. Read multiple people have luck chaging the maf for this issue so I changed it. Unit still stalls to this day and loses injector pulse on the ground side when it does. Have noticed watching the live data the pcm is request injectors to fire via injector pwm value. I have redone the ground wires at the left bottom of the block knowing this was the ground location for the pcm but still no luck. I am a mechanic by trade but this is having me pull my hair out. If anyone has something to have me check I will gladly im not much of a parts thrower but im about to load the cannon

      auto mechanical driver's door unlock without pressing button? [2026 Silv. 1500 WT 4WD RC SB 2.7L]

      By newdude · Posted

      Actually.  Wait.   I just re-read your original post.  Are you talking from INSIDE the truck you have to hit unlock?  Or from the key fob?  I had assumed from the key fob.   IF you are talking the inside unlock button, I assume you are shifting to park and its not unlocking the doors?  If so, that is changed via the settings page in the radio.  Go to SETTINGS, then VEHICLE and then it should be under LOCKS or DOOR LOCKS or something like that.
