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?

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I would have to read back to get a better picture in my mind of some of the other comments and what they were using for a driving scenario they based the fuel mileage off of. That is why the fuel mileage conversation is extremely difficult to make fair comparisons from. If I was to be living in town and only driving around town, light to light and some longer stretches that doesn't have a light every block, and the usual stop at a grocery store and the bank and so on and so forth, my fuel mileage even during the summer time would be so bad with my truck I don't even want to know how bad it would be !. Then add in winter time and idling to warm it up to clear the windows and driving through snowy streets etc, large heavy trucks with gas engines have NEVER been worth crap for fuel mileage and why some little pot licker of a car with wheelbarrow tires and a 1300 cc four cylinder non turbo engine was the ticket to using a mere fraction of the fuel over a full size pickup.    By the way my truck has the 34" tires as its a HC but not the BFG KO3 tires ( that was an option for my truck but the sales guy couldn't figure out what the tires actually were so that never got on the order until it was too late to change the truck order ). So what fuel mileage your getting actually sounds good for "town driving" and with my truck when I go to town the fuel mileage keeps increasing as I get closer to town because it takes quite a while to get the driveline oils warmed up ( and why it always shows better fuel mileage on the return trip from town because its already warmed up ) but once I am in town that fuel mileage average just keeps dropping the more I mess around town and then has to recover back to something reasonable again by the time I get home for an over all average.    I'd be curious what your sticker says for the factory weight of your truck, mine is close around that 7700 lb due to the options it has. But anyway the long and short is, vehicle weight, higher rolling resistance heavy tires and a hefty driveline and a relatively large gas engine make for crap fuel mileage in stop and go scenarios, all one can do is drive it easy off the line at each stop and as my dad had said over the years, drive like a raw egg is under your foot and that's the best one can do. Years back with a carbed engine and if the carb was getting a bit out of tune etc as would the ignition system, the fuel mileage on pickups with larger engines was just awful compared to what your getting. We pay the fuel price penalty for driving HD trucks over some little vehicle, that is the reality.

      We had two Toyota’s with that engine in the mid 80s. We had 50 gallon fuel tanks, a toolbox full of tools, an air compressor and assorted parts for our equipment. We beat those up and down pipeline ROWs until we started buying diesel trucks. Then they became parts runners and first vehicles for our teenagers first cars. Our shop Forman wrecked them both two years apart when we hired him out of high school as an apprentice. Good thing he’s an excellent mechanic. It took awhile before he could be called a good driver.

      Bent valve in 2025 GMC Canyon Denali - Requires engine swap at 14K miles

      By William Aldrich · Posted

      I have a 2025 GMC Canyon Denali.   On a trip recently the engine failed.  The dealership diagnosed a bent valve and says there is a service bulletin that indicates to 'relace the engine'.  The truck only has about 14K miles and is under warranty.   The failure occurred 5/11/2026.   So far I have worked with GM Customer Assistance and Roadside Assistance.  Evidently no engines are available and nobody will offer a date when a new one will be.   Coming up on two months with no repair or timeline and no loaner from the dealership.   GMC Customer Assistance is 'ghosting' me and keeps closing the cases I've opened with no resolution.   Hoping someone can help me on how to escalate this issue.
