Going through Buy-Back process (vibration issue)

[Mikeb52r]

Merry Christmas to you! Congrats on the new truck, glad to see everything worked out for you!

Well after yesterday's day trip.. the truck has the same vibration as my 2015. I will bring it to the dealership and have them verify the tired aren't out of balance first. If everything checks out, them I'm going to have the driveshaft looked at by a certified driveline shop. I honestly believe that it is a driveline problem and nothing more.

 

Please let us know what you find out about the driveshaft, I want to have mine checked too but haven't had time yet. Crazy the 2017s still have the problem.

I'll be following this thread. My '17 CC SLT 8 speed hasn't seen anything over 75 MPH yet (still under 1,000 miles on it) and I thought at one point I felt a vibration and that was before I read any posts about this. Good luck and keep us posted.

My 17 shakes with Duratracs on it.

So frustrating, none of the other brands interest me the slightest. Wish GM would fix this shake/vibration issue, by far the best looking trucks made today, IMO.

What are the chances of getting two trucks with a vibration problem? Slim to NONE. Go drive they same roads with another vehicle and see if it vibrates on the same stretch of road. I guarantee the vibrations you are feeling are from the roadway surface. I thought my truck was a vibrator until I drove my wife's 2015 Lexus on the same stretch of road, its had the same vibrations...

Yeah, unfortunately I can understand that, I'm going to have to buy another license for the tuner, the window shades and custom exhaust are going with the truck. Luckily I was able to take out the catch can, intake, Kicker VSS upgrade and bed cover BUT the kicker and bed cover aren't going to fit the new truck.. so hopefully they will sell.

Let me know when you sell your cover. I would be interested depending on what it is.

Not sure if this is similar but our 2016 Suburban had a vibration. This is when it just had 700 miles on it. It didn't show up right away. Got the Burb off the lot new with only 20 miles on it. It is odd that the vibration took that long to show up. Took to the dealer and it turned out to be our two front tires. They replaced them and it rides nice and smooth now.

I seriously doubt it's the roads. I drive 30 miles to work on 5 different highways and could feel the vibration on every one. Never felt it on my old truck or any other vehicle. GM fixed my vibration with a new torque converter

Actually I test drove 2 other 2017's that also vibrated. I'm pretty sure it is a driveline vibration. Once I get the extra funds a driveline shop will be checking it out.

How much would it be to ship to Saint Louis, MO?

The roads do in fact have a meaningful impact on ride/vibrations......I never once thought mine vibrated until I started to pay attention to the roads.....Some roads would bring a nice vibration to it.....

I'm not sure and honestly not wanting to go through the PITA of shipping something again. I just sold the kicker and it cost a ton to ship it.

And the million dollar question is..... WHAT IS GM DOING WITH ALL THESE BUY-BACK VIBROS? Putting them on the price is right show? Really disconcerting how GM could not put a small engineering team together to analyze these buyback vehicles and learn from them. You would think a add-on brace to the frame, or new body mount would fix this.... It's built my man, it can be fixed by man.
