October 31, 2014 on my home from work I heard a bang. The truck pulled very hard to the left taking me into the concrete barrier that divides the highway. Vehicle was in motion us highway 41/45 65 mph. After the truck was investigated at the dealer to give an estimate on the damage it was discovered the left rear axel was broken. Questioning the dealer about this issue and not getting anywhere I talked to different mechanics that I know after a week or so it was discovered there was a recal for insuffcient heat treated rear axles talking to the dealer and I was told this did not pertain to my vehicle as the recall was taken care of at the factory. I cantacted Chevrolet and was told that because I had given the ok for the dealer to make the repairs. My insurance company would need to fole paper work against Chevrolet which myself I believe is wrong . I was also told by the dealer broken axle was typical of this kind of impact. There is no damage on the side panel or rear of the truck I do have pictures on my phone which I have not downloaded to my computer.
Tl- the contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving a highway rate of speed, the vehicle was shaking and vibrating extensively in the front. The contact pulled the vehicle over and inspected the vehicle but was unable to determine what was causing the failure. The contact mentioned that upon turning the vehicle off and restarting the vehicle, there was less shaking but the strong vibration continued. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for an oil change, tire rotation and an oil pressure check. The dealer was informed of the condition of the vehicle and they stated that the bed cover was after market and the wind was causing the strong vibration and shaking to happen. When the dealer made that statement the mechanic did not test drive the vehicle, inspect the vehicle and did not provide a diagnosis. The contact continued to experience the condition. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer for longer than five weeks and the contact was waiting for the manufacturer and the dealer to provide a permanent remedy for the condition. The VIN was not available. The approximate failure mileage was 10,000. Dyd.

If you go past 80 the truck whistles like a siren. Please help me I travelallot and have kids in.
The trucks have a vibration that is felt in the steering wheel, floor, seats, accelerator and brake pedals etc. While driving. The major consensus it that the worst speed it 76 mph, yet it is felt to a lesser degree at any speeds, with some being worse than others. There are a large number of trucks with this issue, yet general motors refuses to do anything about it. It began within a couple weeks of purchasing my truck. I found people first reporting the issue in 2015, and more recently it continues with the 2015 and 2016 model years.
