Stabilitrac Issue from lift or tires


Recommended Posts

Posted

Don't have a print out. I am just going to get alignments done there when ever I need one. i first tried Ntb when tires were mounted then dealer when found out the sensors need to be reset. The dealer did the worst job by the way. I could see just looking at the truck there was positive camber. Then I also found out toe was in alot too the dealers alignment really wore the edges of my tires quick

What shop did you take it to?

What shop did you take it to?

Attitude Performance in Arlington Heights,IL They use the shop next door for alignments

I hope my local dealership does a better job than your experience. I am gonna spend the day here and am having them reset all sensors and perform a alignment. Told them that my DIC screen has never shown me anything other than steering wheel angle and I want them to ensure that there isn't anything wrong.

Came here yesterday to schedule an appointment for this morning and spoke with my usual guy and he quoted me 150.00 to align and to reset sensors. The guy this morning tried to quote me 350.00 and said he needed to call for my extended warranty to see what anything else would cost?. I almost lost my mind and told him my truck is new and I bought it here and he could kiss my ass trying to say my lift causes me extra money for factory components going bad! He quickly changed his tune and set the price back to 150.00. WTF...

I don't mind paying for an alignment because I chose to install a lift but extra charges for things that the lift has nothing to do with is nonsense.

Just a thought, but maybe ask them if the Rocky Ridge trucks go by different align specs? And if so, use those specs.

They don't have any thing like that here. They have installed lifts here though and said they can do it no problem.

 

That was a great idea. I just did ask that question and the service guy is inquiring about that with the tech.

Let us know what they tell you.

dd50e208281ed62a0a3f0546148bdd32.jpgwell they reset my Steering Angle Sensor and did find my toe was out so they fixed that. Seems to drive straight. Guy told me that they don't have different alignment specs so I'll just have to trust him until shown to be wrong. It is a Podunk little town here so maybe a larger city dealer would know more. Who knows.

+1 my local alignment shop wanted $89+ tax for my alignment since I have 35" tires. I thought that was a little ridiculous so I may try my dealer and see what they say.

 

Edit: Talked with a service tech or whatever they are called and now waiting on their alignment tech to call me back so I can explain to him exactly what I need done and what sensors I want reset. Surprisingly my dealer is cheaper than some local shops by about $20.

Wasted about a half of tank of fuel driving around today and so far my truck seems to be performing fine. So I am hoping that I remain a happy camper.

Alright long day yesterday, and I finished the day by driving another hundred miles round trip or so by taking the wife out to a good dinner. All in all yesterday I put almost 300 miles with zero instances of Stabilitrak coming on. So as Payton34 this issue looks like it is fixed by a good alignment.

Sounds like a winner then. Who did your alignment when you got your lift and tires put on?
