So my 2018 Chevy Silverado LTZ radio is basically bouncing and I have already tried to remove the blue cable and still does it. And ofcourse I am now 2000 miles out of warranty. This sucks my first new truck is messing up already!

Welcome to the site.

 

Take it to your dealer and see if they will help you with the warranty issue.

 

You might have a HMI module failing.

My husband has a 2018 Silverado 1500 high country and his infotainment radio is doing the same. It bounces between screens, stations, disconnects Bluetooth, etc. it also causes the screen in front of the steering wheel to change too. His truck is way out of warranty (104,600 miles) so I’ve considered changing the head unit out for an aftermarket compatible one but I’m worried it’s a wiring issue as opposed to the radio unit itself. Your thoughts?

Replying back to basically no one, start with the simple things like really giving the screen a good cleaning, this actually worked for me. The build of "grease" from your fingerprints will cause "ghost touches" after a period of time.

I bought a 2018 Chevy 1500 Silverado High Country 4wd crew cab, in 1/24 96k miles, within 3 months it developed this issue your describing. I bought 3 GM products in the last  half a dozen years, all 3 have issue 2 major issues! I retired in 2012 from a 30 year career as a professional Automotive Technician. I've always been a GM fan have a brother who worked for GM and retired. It's looking like this is my last GM!!!

      The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.

      Injector update

      By CamGTP · Posted

      Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.

      I can't believe that could possibly be the case. It should be 36mo/100k miles from installation. Then again, it also seems like since a dealership installed it, it'd all be in the system and you wouldn't need to worry about registering, either. Shows you what I know. 😄 Hope this one outlives the warranty!

      I haven't seen inventory recovery from COVID.    In the few random times I 'build my own' truck or SUV, no one has the exact one I want.   GM has been working to lower incentives too for a long time.    A $500 incentive isn't getting me off the couch to go truck shopping.
