I had the same problem. The mechanic found a bulletin from a Silverado about having shims installed with new bushings in the seat. This fixed the problem with my clicking, moving driver seat.

Mine does it too. A little off topic but has anyone noticed that their drivers seat leans to the left? I feel like I'm leaning towards the drivers window on the rear portion of the seat cushion. I'

Mine started right after I got it. After 24,000 miles & several visit & attempts to find/fix it, I hate to say it's still there. Goes back Friday for another extended visit.

I do not. They should be able to look up the # in their system and print a 2-3 page document with pictures to show them how to repair. I saw the document, but I did not get a copy of it.

Hi guys, I also have this issue with my 2015 yukon denali. I just called GMC dealer and gave them the TSB PI1376 number and told them my issue to make an appointment. They told me that its not listed under my specific VIN. They're gonna make me bring it in and I'm sure, try to reproduce the issue. I just hope they cover it. If not, any words of advice? Who should I speak with etc? Just because TSB isn't attached to my VIN on a 2015 vehicle doesn't mean its not happening and it shouldn't be attached.

 

Thanks in advance!

baylorfan05 - If there is a defective or broken part, your warranty will cover it. When you take the truck in, be as specific as possible. For example, if the seat moves under hard braking, have the service writer annotate it like that on the paper for the service tech. If possible, have the service writer hop in the truck and advise him how to duplicate the issue while you are in the passenger seat. If you drop off the truck without any guidance, you may get a reply that they coudn't duplicate.

I own a 2015 Tahoe LTZ and have a serious problem with my driver seat also. At low speeds it feels like it's moving or clicking. It's very annoying and should be considered for lemon law.

 

 

Same issue here on my 2015 Yukon XL SLT

 

Its a very annoying clicking feel. Almost feels as the seat slightly shifts.

I too have a 2015 Tahoe LTZ having issues with driver seat moving/shifting especially when turning/braking, knocking noise in steering column when turning the wheel and when stopped at a red light the engine shutters and hesitates like its about to kill I only have 15,000 miles on it and its sad because we purchased this vehicle after having a defective Dodge Durango just to spend more money on a vehicle and have issues all over again the vehicle is currently in the shop for these problems hopefully we made the right decision by purchasing it through a local dealership that will help get our issues resolved

I just got my 15' Tahoe LTZ and with only 24k miles, I feel the same thing. I feel like I'm sliding toward the door and the bolster appears to be broken down as well as the leather starting to crack/stitching separation. It's really uncomfortable to drive. What did you find out from your dealer? Is it corrected?

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.

      Rattle in the rear!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.

      Do you have access to BP fuels? Some stations have Silver 91 E-0 priced the same as their 93 E-10.  There is a local Marathon with 90 alky free for $6 a gallon but I go down the road to BP for $5-ish. They also have a 100 E-0 but that stuff is $10 a pop.
