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....

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.

How did you do that?

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.

    • Looks like it's riveted to me. What is wrong with that 1? Welcome to the Forum!
    • Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.

    • Looking for this part for my truck. They don't sell just that one piece and to get it you have to pay over $100 even used for the whole air tube. The piece the hose clamp snaps into that is held on by the screw and nut. If anyone has access to one please let me know.
