Truck shakes at speeds above 55 mph. At 65 mph my phone will fly off the magnet mount on the windshield; water and ice shake as if boiling at 70 mph and above. Sometimes the vehicle feels like it is coming apart it shakes so hard. When the vehicle was two months old it stopped on a city street in arlington va and was undriveable. After a timeout period of 10-15 minutes it was driveable but at 10 mph it whined as if the transmission or engine was going to blow up. At 20-25 mph it was a screaming demon and had to be towed to the dealership (browns) who found no record in car computer system of fault. Battery or electrical system was completely dead on 7 June 2019 with about 10,200 miles. Dealership knew I had appointment and I asked for tow but they don't provide a tow from reed-lallier. Onstar was of little help so I called my usaa insurance roadside assistance to get truck jump started; I missed appointment and they canceled appointment that morning which was to check for shaking and also 2nd oil change. Gmcustomercare took my concerns and asked my resolution which was check battery for bad cell, be aware of first transmission problem in arlington va and the current problem of vehicle shaking. I am a retired paratrooper with verifiable severe nerve damage to my back and lower legs and this vehicle causes serious physical and neurological problems when driving highway speeds.

I have been having issues with my key getting stuck since I purchased my car in 2017. When repairs first started it was under warranty (bumper to bumper) and they replaced key ignition. The problem happened less afterwards but didnt stop, I stuck it out due to actually loving my truck other than the situation. Well this winter, 2018 as it got cold the problem got worse to the point my battery has died twice due to the key being stuck. Now the dealership (parks Buick GMC) says that they "think" it may be the shifter but they do not know for sure and they are telling me I now have to pay $491 to get this done. I've seen a complaint online that states someone got shifter replaced and the key still kept getting stuck. On top of all this I've call customer service and was promised a senior advisor (douglas) would contact me in 48 hours and he still has not contacted me.

The contact owns a 2004 Chevrolet Colorado crew-cab. The contact stated that when the battery died and a new battery was installed, the automatic key fob entry became inoperable. In addition, the driver's side window would become inoperable and could not be opened or closed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who advised the contact that the driver's side door control switch needed to be replaced. The switch was not replaced and the vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure who advised the contact that there were no recalls and offered no further assistance. The failure mileage was 77,000.
Soon after new vehicle purchase in 1/04, cruise control periodically became inoperative. I do know if the brake lights were also inoperative. Dealer could not duplicate the malfunction and did not diagnose a problem. This problem occurred approximately 5 times over the next 2. 5 years. Recently, the cruise control became inoperative again, as well as the rear brake lights. I took the vehicle to the dealer and informed them that a recall had been issued, though I had not received a recall notice from gm. I presented the dealer with a printout of the NHTSA recall information. Dealer stated that there was no recall for my vehicle, and since my warranty had expired, I would have to pay for repairs. Repair consisted of replacement of the brake light switch. The total cost of the repair was $175. 04. I'm not sure if this has any connection, but the vehicle was inspected just prior to expiration of the warranty. One week later, and after expiration of the warranty, the battery died and required replacement.
