Your response is interesting.  Mine went in twice for making the high pitch sound and both times they said it is "Working as Designed".

 

They would not replace the pads.  Mind you this is the same dealership that, after paying for oil change services, never put grease in the 9 fittings.  I had to have another shop do that.  Drove over 20k miles without apparently no grease in the fittings from the factory (new).  Now with the repeated P0106 error at 38k miles and replacing the MAS sensor and still comes back on every 5 days, I am wondering if I truly own a lemon.  Especially with the $135 diagnostic fee I paid when it was under 36k miles for them to tell me that the trailing brakes going in and out is a "Problem, but best of luck." - which is still a problem.

Found it, a little google always helps. Thanks all. When I called to ask them if it was covered under warranty she said bring it in and lets see. I mentioned I found the TSB on it, so it should be cov

there is a TSB for this issue. Apparently the early build trucks have an improper spec'd pad. they replace pads at all 4 wheels

No. It’s intermittent also. It happens the most when coming to a stop at low speeds <10mph and it always happens in a drive thru.

So much like everyone else had the first set replaced at 8700 miles now i can start to hear a squeak again less than 1k later... anyone got aftermarket that works? If not ive been a GM guy forever but I WONT hesitate to make it my last. Ill trade it in fast for a 90s model GMT400. I got 2 of them with Duralast brakes that don't squeak for god sakes

On a 3500 drw, a trick that has worked for me, was to remove the pads and grind a 45 degree bevel, about 1/4 inch wide on the outside edge of the pads. It is that 90 degree angle where the pad hits the rotor that creates the squeal, the squeal will be gone until the pads wear the bevel away, then repeat the mod or replace pads.

GM has told me since they replaced my brakes twice now and it is squealing again, they will NOT fix it again.

I had the same issue with my 2020 HD. Dealership replaced mine around 32K and after a couple hundred miles it started doing the same thing. Recently the dealership contacted me and said there is now a new part number for the pads and they replaced them again. At this point I had about 48K miles on them and I was willing to pay for them to be replaced but they took care of it. Happy to say I have driven about 3K miles now with no squeaks.

Do you have the updated part number?

followign for new part number

 

I looked at the invoice and it is written.

1   85149489  (S) PAD KIT

1   86788820 PAD KIT

 

Not sure if this is what your looking for.
I would assume any GM  dealer in the know would be able to pull the new part numbers. Good Luck

Thanks @Dwayne Pierce . Is there a new TSB # I can share with my dealer? They seem like they are not interested in looking anything up.

I submitted the repair request (My 3rd one I think, maybe 4th now) and GM said sorry I am now out of warranty and refused to cover it with the dealer. Mind you, they have already replaced my brakes MULTIPLE times under warranty following each TSB and update and it did not solve the issue. This new find is the last chance and they say, sorry, we know your brakes are still 98% but we are not covering it. I have had enough of GM. First my Front Differential blows up TWO times and brakes have multiple fixes and still suck and I am told to just deal with it? I don’t think so bozos.

So now you'll jump ship over a $100 set of pads?

 

Seems cheaper to do that than replace the truck. Get mad all you want at GM for not doing more but the cheap fix is still an option.

      Tire pressure for 37s

      Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I had an alternator fail that was shorted internally in such a direct fashion in addition to the larger gauge cables that it appeared like a VERY dead battery. Granted I think the car did power up, it definitely wouldn't start.   Rodent damage to wiring?

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Using experience to justify bad advice is lazy and typical of someone incapable of articulating why their advice is prudent.    This immediately sets off the BS alert and the advice that followed certainly qualified.   Asking an idiot for help getting out of dumb situations because he is an expert... at getting himself into dumb situations.   Unless I've been living in an alternate universe - the first thing everyone does when getting into a sticky situation is shift to a higher gear 🤨.   Of course not, the torque multiplication, mechanical advantage and finer control typically afforded by the lower gear is far better suited for this scenario.   There ARE scenarios where a higher gear MIGHT be appropriate determined more by the drivers ability to control EXCESSIVE wheel spin versus applying torque to the ground.

      I'm not sure I agree with "extreme" low speed, high torque sentiment here with regards to the prescribed use of low range. How about...whenever it's needed?   A 2.72:1 transfer case and whatever differential gears these Silverados have (3.42's, maybe?) aren't producing "extremely" low crawl speeds. Or insanely high torque multiplication. Even with the 1st gear in these newer transmissions. But it does provide mechanical advantage and potentially better control at slower speeds. And with extra weight or towing, I think it adds mechanical sympathy for the truck as well.   Plus, traction control and the other assists generally turn off when you shift into low range. Those aren't needed here, they'll work against you if you need wheel spin. In high range you'll need to figure out how to turn off the various modes those assists provide. Depending on the vehicle, those things don't all automatically turn off or turn completely off.   While I agree that a farmer might have some great practical experience, a recommendation to "always" using one gear isn't very informed advice. If the farmer had said WHY and could explain the physics behind his prescriptive "always" I'd definitely listen. The way he's described here makes it sounds like he could either be uninformed or is telling everyone what worked for him, not necessarily that there could be a more advantageous way about things.
