i cant view this image but if its the rear emblem theres a chance that it was added at the dealership by one of the new car departments techs (my brother is one of them here in ct) and they add them on at the dealership sometimes. that could be why its crooked maybe?

Hmm looks a little off. There was someone on here with a Silverado a while back with the back bowtie that was waaay off.

It's time to get the tape measure / level out..

Unfortunate that a simple decal can be installed without any tape line...

 

Time to D-Badge...

Am I nuts or is my GMC emblem not level?

It is not, could see if could have it replaced under warranty, or pay to have a body shop rove and then put a new one back on.

looks a bit off. not so bad that a general passer-by would notice, but just enough to bother you every time you see it.

 

If you care, you should try to get your dealer to replace it. But I would not spend any money on it if they won't do it for free.

Sure looks off. I would ask dealer to fix it. I know that would drive me crazy every time I saw it. Sure dealer could fix, or debadge like another poster suggested.

Mine is aligned at *exactly* the same bad angle as the OP. 2015 Sierra SLT CC 5.3. Probably a misaligned placement device, or the line worker just wasn't paying attention. Who knows.

Dealer replaced my Z71 decals that were not level. They are just eyeballed and slapped on. High tech.

    • Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....  
    • 4 low is really nice on steep boat ramps. 
    • Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.  
    • Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
    • Correct.  2019-2021 model years are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.  Recall 2021s use 19420611.   The recall engines 2022-2024 model years are serviced with 12740076.     The difference between 19420611 and 12740076 is GM changed injector size for 2022.  The injectors are smaller on 12740076 with smaller injector bores in the cylinder heads to match the smaller injectors.  So you can't install a 19420611 in a 2022-2024, and you can't install a 12740076 in a 2019-2021.     Both engines are the replacement engine p/ns that are in the L87 recall.  So both of these are the updated engines.     Here's a version of the L87 recall with the p/ns for all the parts needed.    RCRIT-25V274-7075.pdf   Note it shows 19420611 and 12740076 with an asterisk to a footnote "Use the VIN and the GM Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) to determine which part to order if two or more part numbers are listed for the same part, as it may vary by vehicle options."
