Well everyone, I can finally say that my time with the 2015 Chevy Silverado has come to a close. I completed the paperwork today and picked up the 2017 GMC Sierra Denali, great to see you again Bill, funny how you were at the dealership next door. (Yes the mirrors are folded in)

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

My drive shafts have been checked and the runout is at or below GM spec. Spoke with the dealership and again will be having a GM engineer probably look at it soon. When I did visit a driveshaft shop he did mention that sometimes brake can hang up and cause vibration similar to tires being out of balance. Has anyone heard of anything like this? I've read the thread in almost its entirety and I don't recall this coming up. I have noticed that my vibrations can be worse when driving around all day but if the truck sits for a day or so the vibrations aren't as bad initially until the truck warms up (made this observation recently after starting to really track when I'm having problems). As mentioned time and time again my vibrations are worse between 40-55 mph and 75+, but the truck is almost never completely smooth. Only speed that I would say it is 100% normal is at 60-65

New to the forum. I bought a shaker! uhhh

I bought a 2016 crew cab 4x4 5.3 6 speed 5.5 bed sierra. It vibrated as soon as I got on the highway (10 miles on odo). I brought it back the next day and they replaced a tire and then said the vibration is within spec. I noticed it still vibrates at highway speed, but I'm rarely on the highway. I replaced the rims and tires with a winter setup and the vibration is exactly the same, so its not the tires

I went on a 600 mile highway trip last week and the vibration comes and goes at around 70mph+. Back to the shop it goes. I wouldn't have bought this truck if I test drove it on the highway. I can't believe gm would sell a truck that rides like this and the service dept says its ok! luckily I got it during the 20% off sale on labor day, so if it comes down to trading it in I wont take a huge bath

Issue has been present for 3 years now. How gm has not put out a fix for this yet...

 

I'm aware all the manufacturers have there issues, but I'm a GM owner and want to be. Just want a truck that gets repaired when needed.

 

Pathetic GM

That's about the exact same way that my '16 Z71 Silverado is acting. Must be a NY thing LOL. I'll be contacting the dealer again next week and set up visit number 3. What a bunch of bullshit. Thank you GM....

And where is the GM customer car rep on these forums?

Exactly. How is it that this started with the 2014s and the 2017s are also having the same vibration problems.

Sorry to tell you guys this but GM couldn't care less, they already have your money.

It's cool. It'll be the last dime they'll ever take from me. Next truck will be a Toyota or Nissan.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.

      Correct.  2019-2021 model years are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.  Recall 2021s use 19420611.   The recall engines 2022-2024 model years are serviced with 12740076.     The difference between 19420611 and 12740076 is GM changed injector size for 2022.  The injectors are smaller on 12740076 with smaller injector bores in the cylinder heads to match the smaller injectors.  So you can't install a 19420611 in a 2022-2024, and you can't install a 12740076 in a 2019-2021.     Both engines are the replacement engine p/ns that are in the L87 recall.  So both of these are the updated engines.     Here's a version of the L87 recall with the p/ns for all the parts needed.    RCRIT-25V274-7075.pdf   Note it shows 19420611 and 12740076 with an asterisk to a footnote "Use the VIN and the GM Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) to determine which part to order if two or more part numbers are listed for the same part, as it may vary by vehicle options."

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.
