Spoke to my adviser on friday, he looked again, no, they did not replace my dash trim and the part did arrive. Dropping it off again for my torque converter so they can replace both.

Finally replaced, but new one warps slightly too.

 

Did the same procedure, took it out, heat gun heated it up and force it down slightly, reinstalled.

 

looks like you might have to do it yourself is a better solution, new part might still be f%^&ed up

Still waiting for my appointment. I will let them work on it as there is also a hump on my dash in front of the passengers seat. Everyone who has rode in my truck has pointed it out so at least I know it is not just me....

I have seen my warp disappear while I am driving and the sun warms up the panel. My guess is it will be completely gone once the temperatures rise here for Spring and Summer.

 

Some type of thin black strip that sticks up slightly above the padded section would look factory and hide any warping from view.

Noticed this piece warping on my 2014 Sierra a few months back, 11.5k miles on the truck. Took it to the dealer yesterday and they are ordering an extension part #23340014. Time will tell if it is a fix or the same all thing with the new piece.

2018 GMC Sierra Denali.  It had less than 100 miles on it when I noticed it.  The dealer kept my truck for two weeks.  They replaced the small trim piece 4 times.  They also replaced the whole soft dash.  They had to pull the center console, drop the steering column and a whole lot more.  I now have pry bar marks all over my brand new truck and it looks worse than when I brought it in for repair (See Photos below).  I am seriously pissed about this.  How can GM allow something like this on a $64,000 vehicle?  Really...C'mon Man!!!:fume:

What is up with the build quality of the automotive market in general? Everyone remembers the Ram Trucks from back in the day.. Not sure if they still go through this but the last one i had loved to rattle in every corner. I went through two dashboards on an crew cab XLT F150. The Tundra i traded in for my current vehicle was starting to show signs of waving/warping. I was hoping GM didn't have a repeat of the previous generation. After i had the dash replaced on the F150, the rattles and squeaks starting coming out...

      I can relate. 3 years ago I did that on my Avalanche. I was sore for a week. The only maintenance I do myself now is drop and fill on the transmission on my Honda’s. It’s just too easy. My yard work with my walks in the morning will be enough now I passed 70. The contributing factor is the heat in Texas. You just have to pace yourself.

      Forward collision and lane keep assist still a problem on 2022 refresh?

      By kr477 · Posted

      I am sorry if this was misleading. That was a document attached to our most recent work order number (Doc# 7105804) that summarized all the current updates. These programs were ‘redone’ in the past but these versions dated 4/1/2016 were the ones that actually made all of the problems disappear. These programs were relayed to the dealer from the technical services group at GM. Here is the exact wording on the last work order:   “Front view camera reprogramming with SPS. A new version of FCM software was released to the service dept. In addition to providing general robustness and stability enhancements, this update includes all enhancements from previous software version releases. SPS camera and calibrate camera. OLH to perform extended camera relearn procedure after camera calibration. Would not take with first GDS learn. Front camera SPS – BDYZ333157450 GDS2 – camera road calibration performed 2810835 Front view camera reprogramming with SPS LT 0.6 OLH – extended camera relearn procedure OLH LT 1.5”   I got the truck back on 4/8 – since that time it has been great no problems whatsoever. The lane keep assist, active cruise control and AEB all work very well around town and at highway speeds up to 80mph. During this time I had been away for a week and purposely let the battery sit without a batter tender. Even with the battery a bit lower there were no problems exhibited. I really think this one has it fixed after dealing with these issues over a couple of years. These new programs and relearn process when completed seem to make all the parts (and newer replacement parts) ‘talk’ to each other without any glitches. Hope this helps

      I turned 72 today. My day began with a trip to the pharmacy to pickup meds for me and the dog and then a stop at my chiropractor before heading home. Once home I started the job of replacing the rear brake pads and one rotor on our 2018 Silverado which will probably end up taking me 3 days to finish, gotta pace myself you know. Sometimes I question myself on why I still do most of my own repairs but if I wasn't then it's more than likely I would be sitting in front of the TV all day. It seems like the list of things I need to do gets longer no matter what I accomplish. I'm not complaining but being retired was so much easier when I was 62.   Peace

      google "bathub failure curve". Basically, any part of the vehicle can fail at any time.  It starts off as being more likely (early failure), then the failure rate goes down (but does not go to zero), then it goes up over time because it wears/ages out.

      I went from every other day to about once in five since the rain abated. I'm not unhappy about that. Took most of the month for the ditches to dry enough to mow.
