The vibration can be felt throughout the cabin in the seats, center console, steering wheel, doors and gas pedal. On my last 3+ hour drive i had to stop midway because the vibrations gave me a headache. That's never happened in any…

I park in a 5 level parking garage. Several months ago, i was leaving when i came up to the ramp to the next lower level. I let off on the accelerator before i went from flat to lowering ramp. The truck shifted up to second gear, accelerated and through me toward the vehicle in front. The truck went out of my control. If i were not a safe driver i would have struck the vehicle. This issue has occurred another time…

While driving at speeds starting at and above 70 mph there is an audible noise not present at any other time or circumstance. This is also felt thru the gas petal so my concern is that there could possibly be a defect or out-of-balance component. I demonstrated this condition with the dealer's technician on this and another identical 1500 and it had the same issue. Discussing this with another 2015 silverado 1500…

So due to known issues with the yolk on the differential, the lag in the transmission shift and engine communication leads to extreme vibration at highway speeds and clunking and jerking while driving around town. So when the transmission shifts there is a delay in the motor recognizing it so it revs up some so when the transmission finally finds the gear it causes it to kick. And since the yolk has play in it, it…

Immediately after purchasing the vehicle, i felt a very substantial vibration around 76+ mph. Initially, 2 tires were replaced and balanced; that did not correct the problem. Then the dealership indicated that gm said i have to put 500lbs in the back of the truck and the vibration will stop; this is…
