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.

      GM discontinuing interior parts on a 5YO vehicle??

      By Atlas · Posted

      If one can't be found, a good automotive upholstery shop should be able to replace/sew in a new panel where the damage is on the old cover. It might not be the cheapest option..

      first oil change - 2026 2500HD gas

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Does your dealer charge you for the tire rotation on top of the oil change price ?. I haven't had any service work done at my dealer yet other than when I brought it back soon after owning it to have the front end aligned to correct the steering wheel being off center a bit. Oh they called me at least twice hounding me to bring it in for an oil change and pushing a 300.00 package of oil change and tire rotation and whatever other quick simplistic checks they would do. Only going off of what a friend gets charged for his half ton for the basic oil change and its the same amount of oil as the L8T holds, it was about 150.00. Once one buys a set of tires from most shops these days or so I believe, they will do free tire rotations and some do free tire balancing as well as free tire repairs.    Certainly doing a tire rotation is no five minute job, and definitely not at home but because I run a set of winter tires on their own wheels, I swap them at home and its a one tire at a time deal because of the tire season swap although I jack up the rear and do it and drop it back down and then raise the front and do them and coordinate the tire rotation into that process for both sets of tires. I am using a floor jack though and if I need to raise both ends at once I use a couple sets of jack stands to have all four tires off the ground. I use either an air impact or battery impact and have electric impact as well so no shortage there of easy methods to spin the lug nuts, and then retorquing the lug nuts. None of it goes quick though but my wages are cheap though ... zero. I live an hour out of town, its easier just to do things like that myself than waste a bunch of time in town and having to make an appointment and probably a special trip and sit there at the tire shop waiting for them to get my vehicle in and get it done and not screw something up in the process.

      Clunk when coming to a stop... driveshaft/slip yoke? Mechanic couldn't recreate it

      By mrbflat · Posted

      I do have the 8 speed.  Interestingly enough, after driving my truck for the past 2 days now, I have not had the clunking issue at all!  I am beginning to think it may have been suspension/leaf spring related, and somehow when the shop put my truck on the lift to do their initial inspection, it relieved some built up tension/pressure that was causing my problem.  I swear it felt I was a bull rider on a bucking bull the way the truck would almost rock back and forth slightly before the big thud/clunk when coming to a stop.  I am hoping I got lucky here and it's gone for good.

      Bring it to discount tire. They do free rotations even if you didn’t buy your tires there. I didn’t believe it until I tried and they did. You can tip the employee if you would like

      Best part of this video is how it resets expectations. Wonderfully done piece. It also made clear a few points I've made from day one. Detergent oils DO NOT KEEP A MOTOR CLEAN at the recommended or longer change intervals. They just get dirty slower than a non-detergent oil and there isn't spits difference between them on this point if they carry the DEXOS license. Great thing about the license that gets missed is it assures CONFORMITY even it that means a low bar.    One thing he did not talk about that I paused on an magnified was the condition of the oil ring separator. Besides a stuck ring a plugged separator and land drain back is huge when it comes control. We see in short order improvement in control IF that is the problem.    Another item I took exception to and he did not make plain was the condition of the timing chest and under valve cover having something to do with indicating piston cleanliness. Schaeffer's Oil makes that same omission in their million mile Ford video. I'm guessing he has never torn down a Red Line HP, AMSOIL SS motor that has been on that diet from the get. What he showed in the video was a good deal of varnish. Something totally absent in Peppers 165K cover off look. I smiled because he did his at the same milage.    He also makes the mistake of assuming oil temperatures in the pan are the temperature all over the motor even though he makes note of the piston being the hottest part of the engine. that baffled me a bit.    I can tell you from personal experience and witnessing teardowns of family motors that even oils of the 1960's would keep them squeaky clean when OCI's were 1500 to 2000 miles without exception. At 3K and above you get what he experienced and the longer you leave it the quicker to gets to the junkyard.    I think his is missing a opportunity not tearing it down again when he's done killing it. Time would be his only cost.
