35 days and counting for me.  Truck still sitting on the lot with no part available (direct from GM to me).  I would encourage everyone who has their truck sitting at a dealership waiting on a part start tweeting and leaving FB messages for GM.  If you tweet use the hastag #gmbrakes and lets see if we can get this thing moving.  We have $50 to $70K plus trucks sitting at dealerships while we drive trucks levels below what we paid for.  Now that GM is about to strike they should have a few parts laying around they don't need!  Getting frustrated after 30+ days without my truck.

 

Remember tween @GM  @mtbarra @chevytrucks and throw in some news agencies so they can see this issue goes beyond the 2018s.  Also use the hashtag #gmbrakes

 

Everyone needs to tweet or use Facebook and as Joe said always tag GM, Chevy, Chevy Trucks, Mary Barra all news networks NHTSA which did the recall for the 14-18 models. This brake thing is a serious issue that GM wants to ignore.

You've documented on a public forum that your truck has brake issues and continue to drive it hoping maybe it won't happen again.   If it were my truck it would be at the dealer to be fixed

Has the dealership offered to make a payment for you.  If not they should.  It doesn’t come out of the dealerships pocket, they just have to request it from GM. 

It took my dealership 16 days to offer me a truck. I was put in an Encore going from a Silverado Crew RST with 273 miles. They have offer me nothing.

Well than you should ask for a payment to be made.  The service Dept/manager  can arrange that.

I can’t get them to call me back. I last spoke to GM last Friday and they were supposed to call me back on Monday the 16th. Still waiting. Purchasing dealership is out of State about 189 miles away they don’t care.

Are you going for a buy back?   If so the dealer will not talk to you anymore.  It’s out of there hands and is handled by legal.

Nope never asked for a buy back. Asked for a substitution of collateral which is simply trading out vehicles for one that is safe. When you get all these warnings at 273 miles you’re up the creek plus engine and various other lights.

They text about once a week now. The latest text said it’s going to be greater than 8 weeks before they can get parts. It’s already been 4 weeks without my vehicle.

I immediately thought of this post when I saw the GM worker strike & Canadian layoffs a few days ago. Even without the strike people are having to wait a month or more, I can't imagine how long the wait will be now.

Text them back and "ask" them if they will make a payment on the truck.

why just one payment?  they should keep paying while they have your truck...

I agree just don’t know how long it’s going to be in the shop, 28 days and counting and I purchased 29 days ago.

I would call the Attorney General in the State you live in. They can revoke dealership license etc. talking about getting their attention if you have a strong AG.

      This video may not be the exact content for the joke thread but its a lot of laughs so here it is, I've only watched a portion of it so far but if anyone is looking for some light hearted good soap box driving action, its here. As a note in the upper left of the screen it shows the number out of 100 to refer back to any particular vehicle for comment !.    https://www.facebook.com/reel/1351928276956715

      2023 DRW Wheel Liners

      Did have to make 1 modification because of the WeatherTech rear mud flaps and that was needing 3 longer screws than what came with the install package. 😄

      Picked up the liners yesterday. Installed passenger side WITHOUT any modifications. All mounting holes lined up perfectly. Rain is interfering today with drivers side. Very Happy! Will add pics when finished

      OCI, not when but why?

      As a matter of amusement I’ll leave this conversation with this. Do you beat the government average fuel estimate? Statistics are a guide to me. Not a rule. Someone once said I have to have the last word. If true and possible may be. I’ll blame that on working in a family business.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That is a fair point, and I agree that trying to log “everything in the truck” would be the wrong direction.   There are a lot of modules and a lot of traffic. If the product became a full-truck datalogger, the amount of data would get huge very quickly, and most owners would never use it.   I think the first useful version would need to be narrow: - powertrain-side event evidence - selected high-value parameters - communication / voltage / reset events - pre/post event window - short report first, raw log only as backup   One distinction I should make is between active OBD/PID polling and passive bus capture. If you are polling PIDs through OBD, then yes: the more parameters you request, the lower the effective sample rate becomes, and you are adding diagnostic traffic to a vehicle that is already busy running itself. With passive CAN capture, the recorder is not asking all the modules for data. It is listening to traffic that is already on the bus. So it does not consume vehicle bus bandwidth in the same way that a scan tool polling hundreds of PIDs would. But your point still applies in a different way.   Even if passive capture does not add bus traffic, the recorder still has limits: - processing rate - storage rate - timestamp accuracy - decoder workload - event filtering - report size - user attention span   So the answer cannot be “log everything and let the user figure it out.” The product would need to store enough raw evidence to be useful, but only decode, graph, and present the important parts around the event.   A practical report should probably show: - what triggered the capture - how much pre/post data was preserved - which selected parameters changed - how those values compared to baseline - whether the same pattern happened before - whether any voltage, reset, bus-off, lost-message, or communication fault occurred - selected graphs around the event - raw data only as supporting evidence   So I agree with you. More data is not automatically better. The real product is the reduction from raw data into a useful event report.
