I have a 2015 Silverado LTZ and when I use the "rewind" feature to listen to a song again, the song just skips the entire time. I have perfect radio reception and it does it most of the time. I brought it to the dealer and they could not replicate the problem. Driving home it did it again so I took a video of it. I previously owned a 2014 (which GM repurchased from me due to numerous other problems) and I did not have this issue. Chevy is quickly loosing my confidence...

I have a 2015 Silverado purchased in December. Playback / Rewind worked fine at first, and now at just 5,000 miles it skips like crazy when the vehicle is moving. Works perfectly fine when vehicle is stopped or not moving. The faster it goes, the worse it gets.

The vehicle is at a GM dealer now. At first the dealer called technical assistance and they were told the radio is working "normal" and "as specified", which is a JOKE. The dealer was flabbergasted at GM's response. I have filed an official complaint with GM. Will update when this disaster is over.

Well, I'm making progress. GM Dealer gave me bulletin PIC6110B: Timeshift Audio Playback Choppy Distorted.

Says "Customers may comment that intermittently Timeshift audio is choppy, distorted, skipping, or garbled.

 

"RECOMMENDATIONS: Please do not replace any parts or make any repairs."

 

"Please communicate to the customer that this condition is a normal operating characteristic of their vehicle."

 

 

 

What a bunch of bunk! GM can't won't fix it!

 

Effects: 2015 Buick Lacross, Regal, 2015 Cadillac ATC, CTS, EL, EScalade models, SRX XTS, 2014 Silverado, 2015 Silverado, Colorado, Corvette, Impala , Suburban, Tahoe, 2014 GMC Sierra 1500, 2015 GMC Sierra, and 2015, GMC Canyon, Yukon Models.

Hi Jerricat,

 

I am sorry to hear that you have some concerns with your timeshift audio in your new Silverado and understand you are frustrated. If you would like additional support by reaching out to your dealer on your behalf, please send me a private message with your VIN, mileage, contact information, and the dealership you are working with.

 

Best,

I am curious, did Chevy/GMC dump time shift in the 2016's?

When I was researching and configuring my order I was very excited when I read about this technology as I was coming from an '07 Avalanche.

From what I can tell I do not have this capability in my LTZ.

I think I heard it's not available on 2016. I am not 100% sure. I never use it on my 2014 but I'll have to give it a try.

Not sure...it was on the 2015 and is a HUGE DOG. Doesn't work for crap. Comes with all the bells and whistles with the Navigation and upgraded screen / stereo.

Here is a great video that shows GM's TimeShift feature....Although they are having major issues with it.

I don't think the 2016's have it. My wife's 2015 Tahoe has it but my 2016 LTZ Silverado does not. I'm coming from a 2012 Dodge Ram and I so miss the radio in that truck. I could rewind, replay with no issues. You can even see what is playing on the other stations and not have to change the station to find out what is on the other stations. I can't believe how crappy this MyLink is. What a joke! Why is this so hard? Dodge has had these features for years!!!!!!!

Time shift works great in my 14. Best thing about it is you can hit "pause", shut the truck off, come back after picking up your favorite cold drink and a beef jerky from the 7/11 and hop back in, start the truck up, hit play and carry on where you left off. Take that Apple car play!

:P

I have a 2014 Chevy Silverado LTZ Plus, I payed $70,000 for this and I have already replaced an alternator and Battery at my own expense because i was 2,000 miles over my bumper to bumper warranty. my Play button doesn't even show up, only pause, Rewind and Fast Forward will not work as well. I am getting tired of all the bullshit that this truck has given me. I think all of us CHEVY TRUCK OWNERS with these issues should start a buyback recall. I think we all should file a lemon law action lawsuit against CHEVY. I have been a Chevy truck owner since 1976, and this is not what i expected to deal with when i waited two years to special order my truck in 2013. if anyone knows how to get this repaired please let me know. oh by the way my wife and boys almost died because of the alternator going dead at the speed of 65 mph on the freeway and she had no control of the vehicle because it completely shut down at the speed of 65 mph. luckily she puled over safely with no power and with no accident. but if something serious would of happened believe me i would be owning CHEVY and then i would shut them down.

Love my Truck though until something else goes wrong.

      Stabilitrak conversion to Z71

      By teamjnz · Posted

      Sounds like converting will be a bigger endeavor than I was thinking. This truck doesn't have 2Hi like the Suburban did. The Tahoe has 4Hi and 4Lo and a button to turn of traction control.   From what I understand the Stabilitrak uses open diff in the front and rear. When wheel speed is not the same the stabilitrak uses the ABS system to slowdown the spinning wheel(s) to transfer power to the slower non-spinning wheel(s). I thought the transfer case was open too. Being able to transfer power either more to front or rear depending on wheel spin. Maybe I miss understood some information with you saying and power transfer is 50-50. Thanks

      OCI, not when but why?

      My brother has a 2007 Avalanche with afm 5.3. It`s got 176,000 miles. Runs like a clock. Never been apart. Co worker has a 2010 Tahoe with afm 5.3. 230,000 miles. Never been apart. Runs like a clock. So, even though cyl deac is a weak spot, they can go the distance.   BUT, these engines had the oil changed regularly, AND had 5w30 as spec. I wonder if they would have lasted this far on 0w20? I`ll bet not.

      I certainly could be wrong but I hear of pickups far newer than that 2007 cutoff which may not be going to the wrecker but are having engine work done and be that a reman engine or new engine or trying to repair the existing engine. Some of it would be design issues as per the cylinder deactivation system that GM has and one of those lifters wiping out the cam and the question of oil changes moving the needle or not on that whole mess, or in the case of Ford pickup engines that have the long timing chains and wearing them out and the roller followers and phasers and some of that certainly goes back to oil change intervals. But in those various cases the truck has all sorts of life left in it and so the unfortunate owner and may be original owner or used market owner that is pouring money into repairs so the truck is not seeing the salvage yard yet but damage is happening by infrequent oil changes. A friends son had bought a 2018 I think it is half ton GM and it had some sort of extended or used dealer warranty on it and of course the lifter issue bites and its rattling and so the dealer had to swallow the bill and was at least 7000.00 and I think they only replaced what they felt they had to replace so yeah, I can see that being a ticking time bomb in the not too distant future. Would frequent oil changes cure all these engineering "marvels", probably not but some engine designs have shown that they do much better if the oil is changed a lot more often then if the manufacturer service claims are followed. New trucks cost so much that there is an incentive to keep the existing truck on the road by repairing.

      get a good code reader, and find out what problems the truck has noticed by reading codes. cheap ones can only get basic engine codes, you may want to get one that can get codes from all the computers in your truck.

      This is sort of my point, salvage yards aren't overflowing with all these 'poorly' maintained trucks - excellent/good/servicable condition otherwise, salvaged only as a result of a bad engine from poor oil change regiment.    In my area, there are no 2007 to newer gm trucks/suvs in any salvage yards. A few are in the 'recyclers' with very obvious reasons for being there - wrecked.
