Vibration coming back through steering wheel at speeds in excess of 60 mph. Did research on internet and see many customers are experiencing same issue with no gm resolution and gm apparently trying to say it is normal. Had tires and wheels forced balanced 7/29/2016 which did not resolve issue. Gm is aware of the complaint on my vehicle; ref: claim 8-2177021918.

The steering sticks hard and it takes considerable force to return the wheel to center, sometimes resulting in an overcorrection, and loss of lane position. The truck is difficult to control and impossible to keep centered in the…

Vehicle vibration and whistling noise at 60-55 mph decelerating. Have taken to dealership--they have ordered a drive shaft to replace the imperfect shaft they state is on the truck. Seriously, have had the truck a week now--gm will be notified and whoever else i can find that has a hand in this. Not paying for this truck, checking with attorney. *tr
