Shake or Vibration Issues

[hotrodz37]

How so? There is 5, 10, 30, 35 and 40oz weights, how do you come up with 2.25 oz?? He didnt specify what type he has on there. 3oz is excessive.

If you took time to look at the picture he posted you would see that they are 1/4 oz weights. 1/4oz x 9 = 2.25oz. Go look at your wheels and tires. Guarantee there is close to 3oz on each wheel.

Pic didn't show for me until it was open in Chrome. Could be more weight on that rim. Sure might have 3 oz which is excessive, I don't ever remember putting 3 oz on a wheel when I worked a t a dealership.

JC84, please let me know if the shocks work and if they are stock or if GM may think bad shocks are the issue.

Welcome to the forum Arun9lude,

 

Start by making an appointemnt at your dealer for your concerns, Check your states laws on Lemon Laws, Buy Backs

and the BBB site.

 

In most cases the dealer has four attempts to correct the issue. Keep track of your mileage The dealer/GM put over

a 1000 miles on mine and never corrected the vibration issue. also keep notes on dates and times along with the people

you talk to and their position, most of all be nice it really helped in my case.

 

Sadly, GM has been aware of this since 2013 and with the record sales they are having it is not in GM best interest

to solve this anytime soon as their record speaks for it's self.

I have a 2014 chevy silverado Z71 double cab with 21,000 miles on it and I have had a shake since I had 500 miles on it. My truck has been in the shop more times then I can count. Here recently the dealership has helped me big time. I had the service manager ride with me and he clearly stated that there is something wrong with the rear end. I would get up 75 to 83 mph and my center console would shake really bad. They took my truck in and 2 days later gave me a call and stated that the ring gear wasnt straight it was reading 0.03 but should be 0.02. I have had my truck on the road after the shop visit and it's riding nice and smooth so far. I have goodyear tires on it and I'm going to have those changed very soon, the dealership has road forced them 7 times. Everything is factory with my truck and I have been dealing with the shake for over a year and finally got something done about it.

Of the two new tires my dealer put on, I did notice one of the other ones they left had a LOT of weight on it.... I too like my truck but agree with others that the quality has gone down... I've still got some vibration, rear end "Clunk" sometimes, then there is the "Ching" sound when I apply the gas easily after letting it coast. All these issues are on this forum so I'm not alone...

Ok my ride has been in the shop since last week with the vibration. They road force balanced the tires, with no resolution. They are looking at the rear end now. They need to decide a course of action with the service manager tomorrow. Guess I'm the first at this dealer with this problem. The video I took was eye opening to the tech last Friday.

JC84, please let me know if the shocks work and if they are stock or if GM may think bad shocks are the issue.

 

There stock shocks.

He told me gm said when they replace the tire they replace the shocks as a precaution. There hoping this fixes it which I doubt it. will find out tomorrow hopefully when the shipment comes in with the shocks.. I still think it's driveshaft or rearend related.

Still dealing with this issue, It will be a lemon law case by the end of the week without any results, I have 3 new goodyears and a new ring and pinion. still will shake you out of the passenger seat.

Okay, so I am at my local GMC dealership for service (oil change). I ask the customer service rep if they have had any Sierra's come in with shake/vibration issues. The answer was yes, and I asked if they fixed the issue. I have to add that these guys know me, and they know not to BS me. I was told they fixed the issue by loosening the body mounts, drove down a few rough roads, and re-torqued. Supposedly that fixed it. I was also told that the pico meter was giving them the run around and they had tried pretty much everything else.

 

So what do you think?

So add me to the list of dealer throwing parts at it, I am getting 2 new rear tires.

It surely is possible, I know the Jeep trackbar had to be torqued only at ride height and not on jackstands. If it truly is the fix, I will be loosening the body mounts tonight

Here is an update to my previous post. When dealing with the shake/vibration issue, they must go through the list prescribed to them by GM. If there are aftermarket drivetrain components on the vehicle they must rule them out before proceeding through the list. The body mount fix was a last ditch effort by them just to see what would happen, and I have been told it worked on more than one occasion. The pico meter measurements taken after the fix were actually better than the measurements on a vehicle that never had the issue in the first place.

 

With that being said, they have to go through the process eventually reducing vibration/shake to a level that is not noticeable. So it seems to me there is not a "magic" one item fix, but maybe a combination of fixes.

I have had an issue with my truck that I thought was my wheel spacers, but turns out its still there after. At abour 45-70mph on smooth roads I get a hobble. Its not a shake side to side its a shake up and down, makes it feel like I'm on a wavy with bumps in it. Not sure what else to do, my wheels were roadforce balanced just recently, but it is possible they didn't do a great job.
