Gm would not buy mine back. But did cut me a check for $8000. Took 3 months. Did it all myself. I actually came out ahead on the deal, paid $44k for the truck. Got $40k for trade in. Bought a 3/4 instead. 

Did you negotiate the 8k or was that their first offer?

Their first offer was $3000. Went back and forth with several different people. Took a while.

congrats  i should be so lucky  they are holding my truck hostage  seems that they are having trouble finding my jingle and also waiting for them to get an ecm replacement been two weeks already  maybe ita a good deal tho cause i just about have my 30 days to go lemon plus they have tried to fix or find my noise with 5 repair times  what a waste

My attorney is dealing with the samething right now.  I got the first offer but it was too low. We countered and now 2 weeks later we are still waiting to see what they come back with. It seems they are trying to avoid this going to arbitration so hopefully we settle.  Seems like they like to really draw out this process.

Oh they do. And they constantly gave my case to different people. I feel like every week I was dealing with someone else.

how long did it take you after they gave you their first offer? Some people on here said that gm got back to them with a counter offer right away, and some said it took weeks at a time.

First offer was about 2 weeks.

guys i know this is off topic but with you all being so knowledgable could you give me some direction as to a buy back   is that the way to go first i have already requested that and my service manager is behind me 100%  so what would you all do thank you very much for any help

So I’ve lurked on this thread for a while as I bought a 2019 Silverado 1500 LTZ with the 6.2 a couple months ago. After seeing this I obtained my build sheet and unfortunately it has the sU4 axle code. I’ve got just under 2,000 miles on it and haven’t had a problem yet. Is this pretty much guaranteed to hit me at some point? Basically I want to throw a leveling kit and some bigger tires on it, but I’m afraid I’ll develop the jingle down the road and then they can fight me with the level/tires.

I had the 2019 RST and it was full of issues.  The replacement 2020 has zero issue.  I can't say for sure about the differential sound because the temperature hasn't reached a high enough mark to make the sound yet.  I'll know more late spring or summer.  I have always loved Chevrolet and their trucks.  This is my 6th and my last.

The service manager doesn't have anything to do with the buyback.  You can start the process with GM, but from feedback on here people haven't had the best luck. I would consult and lemon law attorney. Most of them don't charge anything and will negotiate GM paying their fees into the settlement. 

 

If you want to try GM first, call the 1800 customer service number and request a buyback.  I honestly would go the lemon law route.

My '19 High Country with the 6.2 and SU4 axle has been trouble free thus far (knocking on wood) with the exception of the leaky rear window which was finally fixed. I just cracked 17K on the odometer.

 

If you're going to modify your truck I would make sure you keep the original parts for awhile so you can switch them back if you run into problems. After reading the horror stories in this thread you can bet GM will fight you tooth and nail if you mod the truck.

    • Have considered installing a DC to DC charger in your camper to replace your isolator?  
    • Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.  
    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?
