do you mean corroded? I'm not seeing cracks, or am I just missing it?

Yeah I know the pictures not great but the rubber bushing is cracked pretty good.

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

Ok, I see what you're talking about. I just checked mine, they look good at 12,500 miles

Got outta that headache. Didnt wanna waste time fighting GM, so cut my losses. I will never buy another GM product. Ive only driven gm trucks since i was 16 in 1988. Never again. I get a new truck every few years and GM will never get my business again. Wife has a '13 suburban. When it dies we will go ford or toyota. Im really liking this platinum. Just picked it up today. Im sure it could have some kinks. But drove it home 40 miles. No shake and the ecoboost was pulling 19.5 mpg..

I find it even more disturbing that there are so many 2015 Chevy/GMC trucks on dealership lots with low miles. Majority are GM Certified Pre-Owned. We all know that many are pretty much buy-backs/trades that were moved from one dealer to the next.

A friend of mine just picked up a Ford last month and loves it, he was going to buy a Chevy because of the deep discounts. I advised as to why they were so heavily discounted.

Nice truck, the new f150's have grown on me the past 6 months or so. The thing that hasn't grown on me is the ecoboost motors. I personally would have opted for the 5.0, but in reality an HD truck is really more suited for my needs. I'll wear this truck out before too long

Update, today I took it in for an oil change and to have them look at the vibration and suggested they check the u-joint torque. The service manager and I drove around for half-an-hour and he said and I quote.. "Uhh.. you have an issue with the rear-end, sounds like the Ring and Pinion by the whine.. we had had quite a few issues as of late and if the ring is bad it will cause this vibration you have so we are gonna rebuild the rear-end, good thing you have a loaner.. and btw.. we are gonna re-check the tires too and shocks and struts as well"

 

Sounds like they are at least taking it all seriously.

 

Will update when I learn more.

 

Follow-up

 

Yep that was a waste of effing time, talk about a load of horse-shit! they keep the truck a week and all they do is balance the wheels and tell me once again "different tire this time" I have an OUT OF ROUND TIRE that is so bad that RFB'ing can't balance it and since I scrubbed a curb with my tire it is not covered under warranty and if I want it fixed I need to buy a new one.

 

oh and yes.. they put the tire on the right-rear again.

 

$250.00 is way too much for a GOODYEAR Wranger SR-A 18" tire.

 

Oh and I need to setup another appointment to look at the rear-end?? I don't think GM gives a shit about the quality of their cars and trucks or the quality of their repair dealerships.

 

I should NOT be having theses effing issues with a 2105 Silverado 1500 with 29,000 miles.

Just like longhorncop, I fixed my Chevy Shake issue too. The last straw was a horrible ride back home from a job 3 states over. After hearing ice smash against the sides of a cup filled with soda so loudly for about 5 hours, and the faulty bluetooth, it was done. The truck had to go, and fast.

 

Something is clearly wrong with the 1/2 ton GM trucks. Mine was a regular cab short box. Everything fell into place to dump the truck - and I did without hesitation.

 

Dealership opened early on Sunday and the 150 mile trip was strangely enough very smooth with the Chevy. No idea why but I don't care about it any longer.

 

For those lingering with a Chevy Shake truck, dump it or get GM to buy it back but buy the replacement from a different manufacturer. RAM, Ford and Toyota make great trucks. Check them out - they make great trucks.

The Shakerado will get plenty of shop time all over the country. Once there are enough lengthy repairs and buy-backs someone at a GM or third party shop will find the real answer.

My truck is going to another dealership this week since mine wants to deny there is a problem. I also love how the GM customer service representative here went silent on me. Don't pay me lip service, pay my truck note until it stops shaking. No accountability.

So I found out from a friend of mine that either someone at GM or at one of the 2 dealerships I've had service at, has put a note in the system that I am a "aggravated customer". Well no shit GM lmfao

      PF63 Oil Filters Going Away?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      The guy that owns K&P filters last I checked in with him has over 300,000 miles on his Dodge base Hemi using his own 35 micron absolute stainless mesh filter from its first oil change.    The GM study I've posted a dozen times shows the relationship in engine life based in multiples of base units, not miles or years. That is the base unit is the number of miles the motor ran using the reference filter efficiency.    The above two paragraphs dismantle anecdotal arguments IF one changes oil often enough to prevent particle formation and the motor is in otherwise good shape. That is not full of silica (no air filter) or suffering a metallurgical issue that is not part of the lubrication discussion. Poor heat treat in example.   Data from UOA's I've reviewed from more than a few engines can show remarkably broad variations in oil cleanliness using the exact same filter over the course of an engines life.     Lastly there is the common sense of it. Wear debris WILL circulate the engine BEFORE it ever sees a filter in route to that filter and WILL harm the pump which NEVER sees filtered oil.    Alpha question then becomes, given the facts, how long do you believe is a reasonable service life from a vehicle you are certain you will not pass down? That is the junk yard will be it's resting place when you're done with it? (the moral issue most don't care about).    Omega question is then how diligent are you prepared to be in general mechanical, air & oil maintenance? Preventing particulates and keeping them sufficiently dilute; preventing the precursors from generation, amalgamation and precipitation.    If I get a good look at the engine bay of a vehicle I have a fair idea of the owners commitment to the inside of the power train. That 30 micron WIX is still more efficient than a sieve.

      It also depends on what criteria someone is using for “best” when talking filters.  Are we going off best efficiency?   Best quality/QC?  Etc. because the two may not mutually exclusive.

      They’re not the same wiz as 10-15 years ago.  QC has fallen pretty hard.  The XP line was never good though in the first place.    https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/wix-filter-rusted-through.386492/post-6991372   https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/i-ve-used-my-last-wix-filter.27299/   https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/looking-for-a-better-replacement-for-wix-51258.403977/   https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/convince-me-in-using-the-purolator-boss.401537/post-7420147   the forums are littered with posts and examples of not great wix filters the last couple years

      I'd guess that it's because they are Mann-Hummel filters since about 2016, they own Wix and are mostly all made in China now.
