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

Thought I had posted some. I need to get a few new ones now that it is all done up the way I want it. But this is how it looked right off the lot.

Interesting.

The truck recommends 32psi on all 4. I wouldnt think the PSI in the tires could have that much effect??

more pressure = stiffer/ harsher ride my truck says 35 psi....

Anyone have an issue with the BBB just not getting back to them? Ive been working with them for 6 months now and we are finally down to the last step which is arbitration I believe yet no one has called me in 4 weeks and I call/email every couple of days with no response. Im getting extremly annoyed with the BBB and their lack of customer service....they are almost as bad as GM! I guess you get what you dont pay for!

I have a 2015 6.2L LTZ 4x4 Crewcab. Took it in for an oil change (second change, mileage 12k) this past Monday and service rep upon pulling my truck up on his PC said "you've got three recalls, want to get them done while its here". I said sure. Picked my truck up yesterday. All three recalls had to do with the 4x4 drive.

 

Bulletin 15389: torque converter clutch shudder. Transmission controll module reprogrammed.

 

Bulletin 15396: harsh shift when starting in low temperatures. Replaced transmission controll wiring harness.

 

Bulletin 15304: 4WD always engaged in cold ambient temperatures. Reprogram transfer case control module.

 

Btw, I personally have not experienced any of the recall problems. But, I live in the Dallas area and I have not as yet had a reason to use 4WD. just thought I would share the info, especially being one of the recalls addressed a shudder problem.

Need some help here.

 

Purchased a 15 Silverado 1500

 

I have noticed vibration when driving at highway speeds

 

They balanced my tires and and did an alighment.....I am still running into the same issue.

 

I am going to take it to the dealer tomorrow, is there anything specific I should ask/tell them to get my vechicle fixed? This is only happening at highway speeds.

 

You can either read through all 464 pages of posts on this forum, or just pray. Most people that have not had luck after balance, new tires, RF balance, have moved on to BBB or lemon law to have their truck bought back.

My truck (2015 Sierra All Terrain) recommends 35lbs. in all four tires.

 

EDIT: I have 265/65's on 18" rims.

      2021 suburban RST - acting up/lights flickering

      By 520Zilla · Posted

      Hi all,   I just bought a 2021 suburban RST with 88,000 miles on it and everything has been good but I’ve been noticing within the last month or so that there are small electrical things going on and I know what the AGM batteries and all the electric electrical in these big trucks you need to have a constant flow with good voltage   That being said, I bought a new battery thinking that that might have something to do with it but today I went to get in and start it and it said no key found when I had the key right in my pocket   It also proceeded to flash the lights inside and outside for over 30 minutes as I went to disconnect the battery as soon as I touch the negative terminal, I heard the relay reset and everything come back up. I got in the truck and started it no problem.   Anyone else have this happen to them? I’m starting to think it’s the KARR system that the dealer installed short circuit stuff.

      “Service Emission System” & “175 miles until “65 MPH Max Speed”

      By ManyCamaroz · Posted

      I don't drive this truck on a regular basis since I have a new company truck with no out of pocket fuel or maintenance cost. Yesterday I got it out to run some errands and got the title message on my DCI. A quick Google search suggested to first clean the Map Sensor. I pulled it out and it was sooty so cleaned it up and reinstalled it. Issue not resolved. My OBDII is a couple years old so didn't see any codes. Today I took it to a friend at AutoZone to get him to check it with his reader. It had the following codes: P20C3 P02BB P221F Stating the most likely solution is to replace diesel emission fluid (DEF) tank assembly.   So, I guess a trip to the dealer is necessary. I read where there was a backorder on these tank assemblies several years ago so hope that has been resolved.

      Do you keep your tires at full capacity? 80psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Are you using a weight distribution hitch system with your trailer as that alone can change the actual tire pressure requirements needed. It would prove interesting to see what the actual individual axle weights are on your truck when you are hooked up to the trailer. In fact when your hooked to the trailer, typically if anything unless it has a large capacity weight distribution system that is over cranked, often the weight on the front axle will be less when hooked up vs driving empty and certainly if one doesn't have a weight distribution hitch. Really the only times one may get up there with weight on the steer axle is if there was a snow plow mounted on the front or a motorcycle on a rack or with a very large jockey tank full of fuel at the front of the box that transfers a bit of its weight to the front axle.    And of course your tires carry more weight for a given tire pressure due to their size vs a stock sized tire so there is that to take into the equation as well.

      Great info here thank you. I just joined, we have a 2014 Silverado truck we bought about 4 years ago with less than 5,000 miles on it. It has approximately 24,000 on it now. It appears to have all the standard issues that people are talking about. Occasional charging problems especially using 110 volt, occasional blinking triangle where nothing will turn on when first starting the truck but it will reset itself if you wait 10 to 15 minutes. Noisy coupler between the flywheel and the generator. Our truck is speed limited to 74 mph, is there any way to change that? The latest issue we have been dealing with is when driving long distance on the highway at full speed the generator does not keep the batteries charged. The meter will go into the yellow/red border Zone for charge status and the yellow triangle will illuminate solid but the generator will not keep the battery charged, not sure why the controller doesn't tell the gas engine to increase RPM to increase generator output it usually stays well below 25 kilowatts even though the battery is discharging and I have to slow down the highway to 45 mph and eventually pull over and let the truck idle to charge the battery so I can continue driving at speed. Has anyone had this issue before or have any idea how to diagnosed it? When via Motors was around it they were very helpful at troubleshooting. This becomes much if the Terrain is hilly and you're towing a small trailer

      Tonneau cover that does not leak water

      By Z45 · Posted

      I have the GMC accessory (REV) cover installed by dealer. Ordered with the truck.  They did a very good install job, can't find a single issue. Some water gets in around the tailgate but no where else.  You can see daylight around the tailgate but that's not the covers fault.  Installation is means everything. Guys at my dealer were seasoned pros, not inexperienced here today good tomorrow types, like many dealers employ for these jobs.   I don't mind paying for a professional job.
