WHEELS
THE TIRE SENSOR ALERTED OUTSIDE OF ALTOONA PA ON CORRIDOR 99. WE CALLED SERVICE, THEY CHANGED THE TIRE THAT MIRACULOUSLY HAD NOT BLOWN APART. THERE WAS A HAND SIZE BUBBLE ON THE INSIDE AND THE TIRE WAS SEPARATED AT THE RIM ALL AROUND IT. WE CALLED GOOD YEAR AND GOT A CLAIM # AND SETUP TO HAVE TIRE REPLACED IN FLORIDA. REMAINING TIRES ALL HAD SEPARATED ABOVE THE RIM AND COULD HAVE BLOWN. THESE TIRES WERE ROTATED AND CHECKED EVERY 5000 MILES. GOOD YEAR HAS THE TIRES AND SAYS THEY WILL INVESTIGATE. WE ARE CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN TO OTHERS THAT AREN'T AWARE OF THE "FLUKE" AS THE GY MANAGER CALLED IT. WE HAVE PIX OF AFFECTED TIRES BUT ARE UNSURE OF HOW TO UPLOAD THEM.

POWER TRAIN, SEATS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
CONSTANT VIBRATION AND OR SHAKE AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 60-70 MPH. THIS ISSUE IS COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS THE "CHEVY SHAKE" THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN EXISTING SINCE FIRST PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE. I ADDRESSED THE CONCERN WITH THE DEALERSHIP DURING MULTIPLE VISITS FOR SERVICE. AS THIS WAS MY FIRST FULL SIZE TRUCK, I WASN'T SURE WHAT TO EXPECT REGARDING HOW THE VEHICLE WOULD RIDE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS IN TOLERANCE IN REGARDS TO HOW IT RODE AND THE CONSTANT VIBRATION. SO I EXCEPTED THIS AS BEING THE NORM AND WENT AHEAD TO ADD SOME MODIFICATIONS TO MY TRUCK. SINCE THE INITIAL COMPLAINT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS SINCE TURNED OVER MOST OF THEIR STAFF AND ADDED PEOPLE WILLING TO ADDRESS AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT MY VEHICLE INDEED HAS THIS VIBRATION/SHAKE ISSUE. DUE TO THE MODIFICATIONS MADE THEY WILL NOT ADDRESS OR ATTEMPT TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE. HAD I PRESSED THE ISSUE IN THE BEGINNING AND NOT ACCEPTED WHAT THESE SO CALLED PROFESSIONALS HAD TOLD ME TO BE ACCEPTABLE MAYBE I WOULDN'T BE IN THIS PREDICAMENT. MY VEHICLE HAS ALSO BEEN IN FOR NUMEROUS BUCKET SEAT ISSUES FROM SAGGING AND POOR SEAT SUPPORT. EVERYTHING DESCRIBED HERE IS FACTUAL AS I HAVE ALL THE SERVICE RECORDS AND HISTORY WITH THE SAME GMC DEALERSHIP AND SERVICE DEPARTMENT IN REGARDS TO THESE PROBLEMS. LONG STORY SHORT, THESE ISSUES HAVE MADE LONG DISTANCE TRIPS ALMOST UNBEARABLE BETWEEN THE CONSTANT SHAKING AND POOR SEAT SUPPORT.
