Future of GM Trucks

[Silverado-Hareek]

Were you eligible for the update they are offering these days?

 

 

Many people say it worked

 

There's an update?

[Tattooo]

Yes it dont come up on the site recall checker but the dealers are doing them when people come in for service

Oh yeah I got this same recall done but I thought the software update was to the transfer case, not the transmission. I posted in another thread yesterday that I think my transmission is starting to shift worse over time. I'm keeping an eye on it for now to see what happens.

I'd like to see power tilt/telescope that gets saved with the seat and mirror settings (other GM vehicles already have this). It sounds like overkill but it's nice if 2 people drive the truck and the settings all adjust when you push the "1" or "2" memory seat button.

I like to see the following on my wish list, Make some these features standard and more optional and you guaranteed to have 1 truck sold..

-Heated rear seats

-reconfigurable LCD display (similar to Denali's )

-Heads up Display

-Tri-Zone automatic climate control

-Push button start

-Twin panel sunroof

-Auto up and down all windows

-More special edition packages

 

Also Some cool useful features that be great to add...

-Aluminum bumpers and tailgate

-Active aero grille shutters

-Diesel 1500 engine

-Terrain modes selector

-Night Vision system

-Surround vision

-Side blind zone alert

- Pre wired for auxiliary lighting (led light bars, ect)

Number one thing I'd like is front window defrosters

A real warranty as well since there screwing us on the 16d

A damn front facing camera would be nice that maybe comes on at speeds below 5 mph for parking, rear seat vents and as mentioned above a Tri zone AC, ditch the BS chrome door handles and cheap WalMart door trim, better optional gearing, more rear seat leg room, better quality leather, Chevy desperately needs some decent looking factory wheels.

 

Make an AT that is actually an AT or rename it an RT(road Terrain) to be truthful, get some decent looking decals because the current ones are awful, make the Tahoe interior the LTZ interior, ...

 

GM you are doing a horrible job on the new trucks. The sheer volume of buy backs over the last few years, not to mention headlight probs, drive line noises, and recalls makes me wonder why anyone would actually consider buying a current model.

 

PS...still very pissed about the warranty reduction!

An off road competitor like the Raptor but no gray plastic flares and bumpers like the Raptor or Rebel. It would be nice as a suspension option package you could get on an SLE, SLT or All Terrain trim. Don't make it a separate trim level like the raptor and ram rebel. I hate the interiors of the raptor and rebel with the colored dash pieces and weird colors on the seats. I want my SLT but with a factory lift that is engineered to ride and perform with the stabilitrack and other nannies. GM needs to one up the Raptor and Rebel why not use the magnetic shock technology and develop an Off Road remote reservoir Magnetic ride coilover.

Real intermittent wipers. Even my Honda Civic would speed them up and down depending on your speed.

I agree on the FF camera, we need rear seat climate control. I cannot imagine needing more rear seat leg room. I wish they gave me less rear seat leg room (CC) and come more comfortable rear seats and I am 6'1" 220.

 

I love GMC rims, Chevy seems to get the ugly rims. I have seen some nice Chevy rims but it seems like they were last year or Tahoe. The 2015 20 inch chrome LTZ rims look really bad IMHO.

 

Why are you upset GM is reducing the 2016 warranty? I know I don't care, but I also bought a 2015, you looking to buy?

Why would it not bother someone having their warranty reduced by 40%?

 

What does that say about the company claiming they are doing this for better market competition while increasing vehicle cost, all the while continuing to offer inferior low definition touchscreens, thin leather(and vinyl on premium slt), chrome everything,... I could go on, and it is sad GM has gotten this miserably far behind vs the competition, as well as consumer expectations.

 

The truth is that GM has not been producing these DI engines for very long, certainly not long enough to convince me that these engines are superior in durability to the last versions, while reducing warranty.

 

Look at what GM has done to valued customers over the last few years with updates that should be simple to retro engineer, yet if customers are interested in these features they have to purchase a new truck. Android Auto and Apple Play, last gen OnStar app support to name a few.

 

They market All Terrain tires for these pickups that are not even decent highway tires. They quit putting Z71 4x4 so mall crawlers could feel like they belonged to the fan club. They have these things riding so low that climbing a curb risks damaging the Aluminum skid plates(ha), Did I mention the 1950s chrome everywhere? Headlights that aren't as functional as damn lawnmower headlights, more vehicle buybacks than I have ever heard of. All of these things and the others I mentioned before, and so many more.

 

The current bunch of engineers are obviously people who have never needed a Pickup for what it's function actually is, work and ruggedness. These hipsters should all be sent back to work on the Volt. What a damn shame!

Because I bought a 2015... unless you are buying a 2016, who cares?
