GMC Buyback

[EFLine]

As some of you guys know, my wife and I bought our 2014 CPO Sierra exactly one year ago. We have had nothing but issues with the truck and frankly, also with the dealerships breaking more things trying to fix the original problem. It has been in the dealer approximately 60 days if not more over the last year.

 

We have contacted GMC customer assistance and they were absolutely no help. Our CPO warranty is up in 2,000 miles so we have decided not to drive it anymore until we get a resolution to keep our leverage.

 

Dealership called me yesterday and we chatted for a bit and they decided to buy back our truck, cash in hand for us to do what ever we want with.

 

I argued that we would never be able to sell it for a reasonable price with so many repairs shown on the car fax.

 

 

Some of the issues we have:

1) AC seats broke 4 times

2) trailer brake controller shorts out and applies brakes, happened 2x

3) replacement of full exhaust

4) AC condenser cracked

5) back up camera flaked out and needed re flash

6) burns oil between oil changes

 

Sparing lots of details but Guess just wanted to post this for all you guys with issues that it might be worth asking the dealership about options, potentially maybe getting them to buy you an extended warranty?

 

Now we just have to decide what truck to get, playing with the ideas

1) exact same truck except 2016

2) 2500HD with Dmax

3) 1500 Denali

I get calls & mail from dealers offering my trade value plus 20% if I want to buy another new truck from them ... just a shortage of low mile truck trade ins .... which is similar to what they told you (?)

 

Move on the the next one - most are very reliable - fight for more of a deal

Yeah i got that in the mail too! however, i called them complaining about all my issues and seeing what they would do for me. This was the end result.

 

Tomorrow I am going to call them to counter. I feel they offered too low of a number and we JUST put on BGF K02's 4,000 miles ago.

 

however, they are not telling us to go buy a new one off their lot. They just are giving us a check for us to go away.

 

we are GM through and through. Just have to figure out which model we want. Definitely think we are going to steer clear of the 2014's though

2014 was the 1st year of the New ...

 

My 25 HD with the 6.0 6 speed in near bullet proof !

HD Frame, Suspension, Brakes, Cooling System, Trans ... - to me - alot more truck for a bit more money

If was me and had a need I would would pick the HD + Duramax. Realistically the 1500's do not even compete in the same ballpark for payload and towing other than that a 1500 is pretty much just as good in every way. Figure you put it on the list for some reason.

 

It is the most expensive one though since the Duramax+Alison is a 10k option.

Yeah besides the Dmax just being awesome and I have always wanted one since my best friend had one with a bunch of Banks Tuning and upgrades, My wife and I plan on getting a 25 -32 foot Baja/Sunsation Dominator/Donzi and making the 7 hour trek to Lake of the Ozarks quiet a bit every year.
