Shake or Vibration Issues

[TheFactor]

the deal is they take mine and give me a new 2017. whether I keep it or not is another story, not sure what Ill do at the moment, I'm terrified to have the vibration come back, and I already know that it is very very slight on the 2017 denali's I tested. im trying to get them to put better tires on before I accept.. If its gone I'll consider keeping it, if its still there I'm going straight to Ford or Toyota... I think

Yours options are limited no doubt .

Wish you the best outcome what ever you choose

I finally found a fix!

 

After buying 2 different 2014 GM trucks with this issue (see past posts) and battling GM over a year, I finally found a fix for the sub-par manufacturing of the new GM truck model. I bought a 2015 Ford F150 FX4 and I have not looked back since. I have always been a GM guy, but they will never get another dime from me or my family. I suggest you all do the same.

 

Good luck guys.

 

LOL, I also found a similar "fix". A 2016 Ram Laramie with the 5.7. This truck ROCKS!!!

I had my appointment today at my local dealer. They will be replacing my driveshaft. It will take a few days to get it in. Fingers crossed.

I can't afford any more new trucks, i have to feed her lol

Is that thing entered in for the ugliest dog of the world contest?

[C6Bill]

No, but her mother finished 6th at Westminster.

New shocks and struts are getting installed today.

[C6Bill]

What model did you go with ? I was told my rear shocks were completely shot with something silly like 1500 miles on it lol

Pro Comp ProRunner SS all around with the height adjustable fronts. Only saving a few bucks over Bilstein 5100s. I'll let you know if it was worth it after I pick it up. Heading there now.

uh huh. Well I'm glad I got out of the dog show circuit many many years ago. If what you say is true, I can see that my instincts were right about how the show circuit has deteriorated drastically.

In all seriousness, is my 2016 4x2 LTZ ever going to ride smooth over 70mph. I see a ton of posts about the vibration issue, but see very little about the issue being corrected by the dealer. Please tell me that I did not make a mistake by buying this truck as 75% of my driving is on the highway. I even asked my service writer to search ch the Internet and he will see that this is not a unique issue to my truck.

Probably not

If my instincts are right they are glad you are gone.

[Severado]

OK. Got it back around 3:30pm. Hung out for a while with family. Drove it on my normal roads. Took it up to 95 on the freeway with my friend who is in town this weekend. He was impressed with the power and features. Does it ride better? Yes. Paid good money for it. The hard console shake seems to be gone. All of the little imperfections and potholes are way way less noticeable. That's all I really wanted for right now. Next I'm getting a beefier tire to reduce road feedback. But does it still vibrate? Fkin' Yeah. Tighter more controlled suspension makes V4 mode vibe pronounced. Torque converter maybe?

[C6Bill]

Well at least you made improvements in some of the ride characteristics. And you are not the first to question the torque converter. Anyone get a 2017 yet ?
