And to Eddie from GM who had the gaul to respond to this thread on the 14th, you have got to be kidding me. Have you actually read any of the posts in this thread. You have some serious nerve young man.

These GM reps who chime in are clueless and have no bearing or significance on fixing issues. It's the same old fake apology and is totally useless....

So I was able to solve the seat movement issue as a few others with hose clamps. I bought 2 - 1" hose clamps, and 2 - 3/4" rubber clamps and slid the rubber off of those and onto the hose clamps. I bu

whatever... I'm sure 2013 Chevy was perfect and had no issue. I'm sure your 1996 Ford is also perfect and never had any issues ... The truth is that every car/truck, every year has it's issues. Th

Thanks for this.   Just re-quoting for all the new members because I spent about 20 minutes trying to find the fix, with pics.

I think that's all they are allowed to say on these forums. It is easy for us customers to bash GM, but when you work for them, you have to be really careful what you say in a public forum.

And I totally understand but why don't you ever hear from an engineer or some one up the chain who can do something about issues. My 14 Sierra doesn't vibrate like most do and my seat doesn't move but I feel for these guys who spend $50K or so for a truck and have to deal with this crap... It would solid discouraging. When the reps chime in I'm sure it doesn't make those guys feel any better because the end result is pretty much the same. It's easy to copy and paste we're sorry to hear you're having a problem but it doesn't seem easy to forward these complaints and issues to the ones who can do something about these issues.

The loaner I had earlier this week had a terrible seat movement issue. I laughed when I felt it the first time. I have been lucky my truck doesn't have that particular issue...

I just took my truck in and this was on the "list" of issues I have. Bought it in February this year and was told to put some miles on it before addressing any issues by GM. well I got 4,600 miles on it finally.

 

"Couldn't Duplicate The problem". Nor could they duplicate the vibration in the dash that makes the truck un-drivable. That took a second trip and when I took the tech guy for a ride it was amazing...I never got the truck over 15 mph and ta da! there it was.

 

On the bright side...after the flash of my ECU for the recall...I'm back down to 12 MPG's!

 

I've lost all confidence in GM.

I fixed my seat with the hose clamps this past weekend. What an improvement! Didn't bother with the dealer since they have terrible customer service.

8700 miles in and my seat started moving. Mostly in low speed maneuvers such as parking lots, in and out of my driveway. I'll be hose clamping mine very shortly.

Took my 2014 in last wednesday for soft ware up dates, they checked and repaired seat keep truck three days, seat is worse than it was before they fixed it, scratched the rear passager door, soft ware updates killed my fuel milage, waiting on phone call to see what they are gonna do about the door, knowing the cal will never come, will have to go back out there, my truck was running good, should have put the hose clamps on and left it alone, if you want your truck tore up take it to Tuscaloosa Alabama, Chevy Dealer...........Putting the hose clamp fix on tomorrow............

My 2015 Yukon SLT is having this same issue. The driver seat has a slight shifting feeling on turns. Haven't taken it to the dealer yet because I know its going to be hard for them to feel what I am feeling driving it everyday.

 

On another issue, both my break lights are getting condensation in them on cold days and after a wash. Spoke to the dealer about this and they said they need to see it but the condensation dries quickly when you drive it. Just another frustrating problem with this vehicle. I will be starting a separate thread on this to see who else is having this issue.

I found taking pictures and video with my phone can get a lot done. Especially when they call the GM approval boob...as soon as they say "he has video" all kinds of things get approved.

 

That's how I got the Tranny and t-case replaced in my 2009 Silverado...if I parked on a slope while in auto 4x4 and 4x4 engaged before putting it in park...the t-case went into neutral and that bitch would go rolling back down the slope! They told me I was full of it 3 times...then I brought video...Game Changer! GM couldn't find any problems and just replaced everything.

      The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.

      Injector update

      By CamGTP · Posted

      Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.

      I can't believe that could possibly be the case. It should be 36mo/100k miles from installation. Then again, it also seems like since a dealership installed it, it'd all be in the system and you wouldn't need to worry about registering, either. Shows you what I know. 😄 Hope this one outlives the warranty!

      I haven't seen inventory recovery from COVID.    In the few random times I 'build my own' truck or SUV, no one has the exact one I want.   GM has been working to lower incentives too for a long time.    A $500 incentive isn't getting me off the couch to go truck shopping.
