The pickup shakes at speeds typically between 30-45 and 55-75. It shakes hard enough and long enough at times where at higher speeds becomes dangerous because it compromises the steering where the truck can come off its line and become unstable. It will also shake randomly and for unknown periods of time. When it starts i have no control over it and no control over when it starts or stops. I have brought it into the…

There's a box under the steering column that can vibrate loose and fall by your feet while driving. It falls right beside the brake and makes it difficult to safely brake without it swinging around. It can be replaced but is capable of vibrating loose over and over.

Rear facing camera can not be dimmed. When backing at night, camera display is so bright you can't use your mirrors. You can not focus on anything that may be along side of the vehicle. This could be dangerous to anyone who might be out of sight of the camera. I have read that older year vehicles have a camera display dim feature.

When accelerating from a stop truck hesitates to the point where you could get hit or you have to push pedal hard which makes vehicle jerk or spin tires, especially when wet pavements. Also will stutter and vibrate at higher speeds. Been told it's normal for this truck with its fuel saving [xxx] from 4-8 cylinder. Not safe at all.

When putting the vehicle into reverse for the purpose of backing up, the radio screen illuminates to a blinding level of brightness when the rear camera view is displayed. This is especially noticeable at night and impairs my ability to see out of my windows. There is no adjustment within the radio settings to fix this issue, and the rotating dial to the left of the exterior lighting knob will do nothing to dim the…

My vehicle is a pickup with the z71 off road package. I use it working on farm and pasture land which requires me to drive off road in tall grass and brush at times. I noticed, and it was called to attention, that grass and brush was collecting around the rear axle, drive line and exhaust system. I got under the vehicle and found two large plastic clamps around the axle housing that have a large v shaped opening…

Bought the truck 16 nov 16 in idaho. Noticed at the end of jan/early feb '17 that paint chips/knicks were starting to appear all over the truck and in places where the only way you could see them was to the open a door (i.e. Not even exposed to the road). After making numerous inquiries to local gm dealerships, all of whom said it was sand damage, i started doing research. Turns out, i'm not the only person with…

Truck exhibits a rough idle after truck is driven and warm. Idle causes teh truck to shake and feels like it will die at stops. Rpm drops below 300 rpm then goes back to 490 rpm. In addition the truck will start to shake and vibrate at highway speeds of 75-80 mph. Gmc service performed tsb changing our engine mounts but that has not fixed the issue. This is a known issue on silverados and no fix in site. Concerned…

I am requesting that dot nhtsa investigate the extreme wobble/vibration/shake on new 2017 chevrolet silverado 1500. The vehicle was purchased new and driven under 55 mph for the first 500 miles. After the first 500 miles and beginning to drive highway speeds, between 60 - 75+ miles per hour, a wobble/vibration/shake began to occur. When the wobble/vibration/shake begins the driver feels that control of the vehicle…

Dash cracking in pieces could cause pieces of plastic shards to become airborne when air bag is deployed causing injury and possible eye damage. The vehicle was stationary when i heard it pop after turning on defroster. It appears to be a common problem in chevrolet / gm vehicles spanning many years.
