I’m having the same paint issue on a 2015 Sable Brown Suburban.  GM should stand behind this, but it looks like they won’t.  Very interested in a class action suit.  I understand from one dealership that is is a common issue on all GM cars painted sable brown, not just the suburbans and trucks.

You really think GM should stand behind the paint on a 6 year old vehicle? You think the paint should still look like the day you bought it new? I don't think they should, they don't know how the paint was taken care of like never washed, waxed proper soap if it was washed for all they know Ajax could have been used to wash the vehicle. Vehicles paint has to be taken care of just like anything else.

I too bought a 2016 Chevy Tahoe in Jan 2020 that appeared to be in excellent condition.  Of course it had not even been driven much due to Covid in 2020.  The hood and roof started to look bad in December 2020 but was near impossible to get appointments or anyone to answer calls because of Covid.  It now looks absolutely horrible like someone took a wire brush and scrubbed it.  I contacted the dealership and they will not do anything.   Have you made any progress on your issue?  I also have another friend that purchased from same dealer about the same time and same make and model as mine and hers did the same thing.  They ended up having to pay to have it painted a couple months ago.

It's awfully hard to hide from Google.

It would be interesting to know if these are discord bots responding to each other.

We don't do R&D anymore nor do we do Product Testing. We hardly do engineering and science is out the window. 

 

 I'm standing in a Love's truck stop and hear over the speaker system..."Be a product INFLUENCER, like us on blah, blah, blah...and write a review"

 

This goes viral and next thing you know we tweet and retweet until we have a new reality. What a world we live in, eh?

I purchased a 2016 GMC Yukon XL last October 2020 with 57000 aprox miles. Now the hood and roof are faded and it has swirls like its no ones business. Took it to a reputable detail place and one look the owners said the paint is damaged and its factory paint at that. Any suggestions

Same problem with paint defect on hood and roof of 2016 Tahoe in Mississippi.  I am a lawyer and will be preparing for a class action lawsuit against GM and possibly the dealers who had knowledge of these defects through GM bulletins sent to the dealers but failed to disclose the known defects to customers purchasing the defective vehicles.  This is fraud and conspiracy between GM and the dealers.  I will be setting up a separate email address solely for this anticipated class action lawsuit and will post the email address later.  Please stay tuned.

Please give me any info on a class action suit.  Mine is a 2014 black Suburban.  The Chevy dealer body shop manager said it’s just not enough clear coat from the factory on the hood and top.

I just signed up with a law firm in Alabama that had success in a class action "paint issues" lawsuit against Mercedes.  I encourage others to reach out to the firm.  No charge to us, all on contingency:

I was told by GM that I could contact the BBB to file a claim under the lemon law.  They provided me this link.  https://bbbprograms.org/programs/all-programs/bbb-autoline   In researching this issue, it looks like a defect in the clear coat.

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
