2015 Silverado Vibrations?

[txchevy4ever]

Gotta recognize the internet effect.... for every single complaint here, there are literally tens of thousands that are fine. Internet bulletin boards about products are like high powered microscopes. You get very few people logging on to say "All's well" versus angry people to complain, therefore, you'll always have a disproportionate representation of defects... defects occur in all man made products.

My local dealer confirmed that about 10% of all 2014 trucks they sold did come in for warranty work because of vibration issues. To me 10% is not a trivial number. One out of a ten thousand vehicles would be trivial.

A friend of mine bought a 2014 Silverado and had the vibration start at 65 MPH. Brought it to the dealer numerous times. Had the tires balanced, took the driveshaft off and had it checked. They basically told him until GM recognizes the problem their hands were tied. He traded it in on a Dodge Ram and he is so done with GM. He said he also took a 2015 for a ride to see if that one had the vibration and it did. I spoke with a service adviser in my home town and he said the problem is in the steering box and that GM was suppose to have a recall but I haven't seen one yet. I have a 2014 GMC Sierra and thank God mine doesn't do it. I did have 7 recalls on my truck in the first year which I think is ridiculous. I've been a GM man for over 40 years but if this shit keeps up I will be going else where.

Hi. I am not a complainer, but I have a 2015 Silverado 1500 with 6.5' bev, 4.3L V6, Z71. Leer canopy.

 

Bought new, now with 10k miles on it. It is vibrating terribly at low speeds, not at freeway speeds. Brand new it was smooth as "butter" but now it is like the 40 grit sandpaper another user posted.

 

It is again at the dealership, and who knows what they will respond with. Probably, that is just normal for that truck... again, who knows.

 

Has anyone verified whether it could be drive shaft? Its not tires, had them checked for balance. It hasn't been off road to beat up the suspension, in fact I baby it.

 

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
