I have a new 2022 Silverado 1500 Custom with 300 miles on it. I have noticed at slower speeds and while driving on uneven ground and turning, a clunking noise from the rear of the truck like a loose spare tire. I have checked the tire and it fine. The truck is fine driving forward and reverse on level ground. Has anyone came across this problem and if so how did you resolve the problem? Thanks Noise Driving me Crazy.

Mine, 2022 LTD LT, does the same thing and this issue seems to be well known caused by leaf spring noise. Service Bulletin No: 19-NA-129. I complained of this to my dealer but they said "unable to duplicate", although I always hear the noise when rocking my truck side to side. Please refer to the links for the details. Pretty disappointing 47K truck has noise on every bump.

Every GM truck I have had since 2014 develops the leaf spring "creaking" at slow speeds, uneven ground. I think 3-4 trucks total. Thankfully the new 2022 Refresh I got doesn't do it.. yet... it only has 1K miles.

so the tech bulletin on my 2022 3500hd calls for a retorque,  generally hear it in the driveway at low speed,  had it to the dealer,  pic of when i got it out,  claimed they had to clean and use wheel bearing grease per tech support.

the specs are small stones and dirt now stuck to the springs, and noise has not changed at all.

 

the white speckles are stones

I've had this same problem with my 2022 LT for 6 months  now. Took it to dealer, they greased the leaf spring sliders and the noise has been eliminated. It was extremely aggravating. I feel like this is a band-aid fix but we shall see as time goes by.

I just started having this noise at 7500 miles on my 2022 AT4 Sierra and my local dealer said they know there’s a problem but when they contacted GM for the warranty repair it was not authorized. The dealer said GM doesn’t have a fix for at this time and this was just last week. I’m in love with my truck but this whole BS about not fixing something under warranty makes me want to sale it. Any help from GM would be appreciated

@GM, I email like you suggested and pretty much got the same run around from y’all I got from the dealer. One blames other and other blames other and then say truck is operating as designed. I had already had the rubber leaf spring isolators replaced FYI about a week after my original post and it fixed the problem. You would think that when a Truck cost half of a small house it would go with sounding 15 years old when it’s not even a year old. Not to impressed with GM warranty or customer service as of now. I just feel bad for the people with 100 miles and it’s doing the clank. Love the truck but not the warranty honoring by GM

I have a 2023 LTZ with under 600 miles and I heard this driving thru a pot holed parking lot. Truck is very quiet on smooth roads. I guess it's a trip back to the dealership.

      2026 DENALI 6.2L

      By pyoung62 · Posted

      I agree with Tim.  As tech heavy as engines are these days, no way I’d be an early buyer of the new 6.6.  Of course, I bought my ‘26 Denali w/the 6.2 after dumping my Tundra with it’s defective 3.5 liter imploding engine disaster, so I’m a little gun-shy.  That said, my 6.2 has been rock solid.  I don’t drive it like I do my BMW Z4 M40i, but I don’t baby it either.  I got a V8 for a reason.  But I’m averaging 18 around town and 22 highway.  I have seen 24 highway as well when I wasn’t loaded up heavy.  Considering my Tundra with the twin turbo V6 only got 14.5 in town and 17 on the road, I’ll take the 6.2 all day, every day.  If I were you, I’d grab a ‘26 while you can.  Inventories are probably gonna start dropping and I’ll bet the deals will start looking sweeter as well.

      Can you add a 360° Cameras hard button to a 2021 Sierra?

      By ShowMeShooter1332 · Posted

      I am curious if anyone has figured out a way to add an hard button AUX or 360 Camera switch to the center row of switches. I have a 2021 AT4, and want to split the hill decent button and add a 360 camera button so that you don't have to go into the center display and locate the camera functionality, etc...   My father's 2024 Yukon XL AT4 and it has a hard button, see below. I found this thread on the Yukons, but it seems like there may not be a part number for the 2021 sierras. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/255339-adding-hard-button-for-camera-on-2021/ Anyone else figured this out. Seems like it would need to be a custom switch!   I am getting ready to install the auto stop/start eliminator, so would be nice to knock them out at once.     Upvote1Downvote0Go to comments

      Oil Consumption

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Through the years it hasn't been my typical method as I tried to drop oil on an engine that was hot from having been worked, however that was not always practical and had to fire up a unit and let it warm up reasonably well and drop the oil when I had the time to do it but am referring to not only vehicles but a variety of farm equipment and highway tractors etc. However on a vehicle where one is crawling under it and the exhaust is nearby to ones body and if wanting to pull the plug without danger of being hit with boiling hot oil or attempting to remove a HOT oil filter, its sure safer and easier to not have everything smoking hot and can remove the filter right away when under the vehicle and let it all drain. Of course its not the end of the world if a bit of oil stays in the engine that might have eventually found its way out, I like to get out as much as possible but any oil changes that take place in shops would rarely be sitting around for very long at all before the plug is thrown back in and filter slapped on and oil poured in and sent out the door quick like. There would be very little time spent ( assuming they even did it ) in starting the engine with oil to fill the filter, then waiting to verify the level on the stick. A good reason to check ones oil level shortly after a shop changed the oil on a vehicle just to make sure its correct and to look under for any oil around the drain plug or filter.
