I called to schedule this and I was told there was another new recall for something to do with the odometer or the gauges or something that had just came out since yesterday. Said they had done neither yet and was going to see if they had the software to do them both.

I think I'll wait another week, there should be at least another two more recalls by then, and will save me another three trips.

 

Getting ridiculous!

I have mine going in thursday morning for the recall and I was told the same thing about a new recall on the gauges. However I am not sure if it is for my truck as when i do the Vin look up for recalls, only the transfer case comes up.

 

Be prepared for a lot of recalls. GM doesnt want to have what happened to them again so they are recalling everything. Might as well have them fix them then hide them

The gauges recall does not show up on my VIN search either. The service advisor told me about it when I called it in.

I'm loving it, for the past 35 years GM has avoiding fixing anything free of charge. Finally GM is willing to fix anything that needs it without a major fight from us.

How can that not be great for us.

They can keep bringing it back in and fixing it as much as they need to, I don't care.

I do wish someone would make another movie with a GM vehicle in it as I'm getting real tired of the transformers movies on auto replay.

I just called to schedule an oil change and look into the recalls also. Next available appointment is July 18th. The transfer case issue is considered a safety issue, gauges are not. They said all the ignition recalls take precidence because of safety; evidently my truck going into neutral at random is not. Waiting on a call from a service tech with more details. Hope my truck doesn't roll away in the mean time, I have a full load of wood in the bed at the moment.

"Strange RPM Flare up" ,,,,,when are you noticing this?

 

I've only had it happen about 3-4 times in about 9k miles twice in the last two weeks tho. I did just recently add a catback exhaust. I wonder if this would make a difference?

 

It happens between 1st and 2nd. Not really going fast or anything, once I was in a parking lot and the other time I was just pulling out of work. The its like the trans slips for a second or two. the RPM's go up about 1000 or so then when it catches it goes back to normal.

You guys are good sports overall. I can't even imagine the millions of dollars in lost wages/labor/time folks are incurring as a result of purchasing this 2014 model year truck every time they must make yet another trip to the dealer for a recall or to fix a problem.

 

GM should be offering customers 150,000 mile bumper to bumper warranties on new model year trucks if this is going to represent the new benchmark in quality standards set forth by GM.

      Lower trims ( WT, Custom, Silverado ( aka LT )

      By newdude · Posted

      HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.

      2021 vs 2026 handling (1500 X31 Sierra)

      By dennismc · Posted

      I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it.

      frustrating P0446 code

      By Old Bay · Posted

      So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29.

      loose lug nuts

      By newdude · Posted

      Any grease on the stud threads of any kind?   Wheel studs should have NOTHING on them for proper torquing and so the nuts don't back off.     Are all of the mating surfaces clean?  So wheel, rotor and hub?     We've had plenty of trucks at work with that wheel, this is a first to me.  Makes me think they've got a lube tech putting anti-seize on all the wheel studs or some kind of grease, and they need to stop doing that.  To have 11 other trucks with the same exact problem.

      2027 Chevrolet Silverado: Official Discussion

      By Flynlow · Posted

      I was a Chevy guy for years, then switched to GMC because I liked the looks better.  I'm actually thinking I like the Chevy looks better than GMC for the first time in a lot of years.   One thing I know for certain, the new GMC dash is hideous!  Chevy wins this one!
