Purchased brand new chevy Silverado 1500 in 2016, noticed significant shaking of vehicle 11 months into owning. This vehicle is solely used for a daily to and from office job commute, consuming approximately 45 miles a day, mostly highway. The vehicle upon reaching 70 mph shakes terribly, enough to shake my coffe out of the cup. At the same time I also began to notice the quick wearing and feathering/warping of my tires on the inside tread area. Took the vehicle to the dealership and was told I needed new tires, mind you at under 19,000 miles and the shaking "should" stop. Had the tires replaced along with an alignment and the issue still remains. The dealership has been consistent with giving me the run around. Spoke with several silverado owners whom have the issues, some earlier in ownership while others sometime later. Apparently this issue has been given a name "chevy shakes". Searched on line for this issue and surprisingly the problem is well documented/discussed. I'm getting the perception that this is a huge problem and chevy is doing their best to cover it up. Filing this complaint to go along with the others. Hopefully this problem is addressed with a preventive mindset rather than waiting for someone to get seriously injured or killed. It's time for a recall!.
Our Chevrolet siverado 1500 2017 had a blow out on the freeway in tracy, CA (hwy 205) while driving home from roseville, CA. We called our insurance roadside emergency and the service person told us the blowout looks bad and that we were very lucky.
The truck would go out alignment with normal driving and they replace the wheel bearing once and bad already. It been only two month since they replace the bearing.

Issue since new: only 100 miles. Leaf springs on 2016 chevy Silverado 1500 lt 4x4 truck is defective. Have taken it in for service on multiple occasions. All they will do is place grease packs on leaf springs, quieting (masking) the real issue. This temporary "fix" last only approx. 7 days and the loud banging and bouncing of bed is back. The vibration that is causes in cab along with the bouncing gives passengers headaches and is also responsible for terrible wear of tires. Trucks tires from factory are also bad and unsafe. In for service and did nothing. Was stated that they were 100,000 miles tires. . . . All tires cupped and worn to 40% and truck only had 24,000 miles. Called dealer to have issue addressed multiple times - they blamed the owners. We drive back and forth to work (mainly highway), keep it clean. . . Maintain it to perfection and no off road driving of any sort. No way this is an owner-induced issue. Leaf springs need to be recalled. . . . Along with the goodyear tires provided by factory. Have filed a claim with general motors after several attempts to have issues fixed through dealership. They say gm will not pay them so they cannot provide any other remedies. No tire fix, and only temporary one week 'masking fix' for the leaf spring issue.
Steady driving between 35 and 65 mph, the truck shudders and the rpm tach needle jumps. It does not do it while shifting but when running at a steady speed. My 4th time at the dealership and they are only focused on the vibration of the truck and are now replacing the third tire. I agree the vibration is bad but the shuddering is ridiculous. There is a technical bulletin for the silverado with the 6. 2 transmission with the exact same issues. I called the service tech who has my truck and he said "your truck doesn't have that transmission. " I said "I realize that rich. . . However it is the same issue. " he said as soon as they get the new tire in they are going to test drive it some more. Did I mention they have had it five days this time and they still don't have a tire. Also. . . According to the technical bulletin #pip5337d, the shudder is torque converter.

Vehicle shakes at speeds above 60 mph. The shake is in the vehicle and not in the steering wheel. Tires have all been replaced under warranty and problem still exists.

My truck shakes on the highway at 68-75 mph, the truck is one month old and has 800 miles on it. The vehicle has been back to the dealer every week for the month that I have owned it tires & wheels have been changed several times. The truck has been road force balanced the same & also by an independent tire shop at my own cost, as of this date my vehicle still shakes, gm has admitted the problem but they say it is not a safety issue at this time, so no recall is warranted, the dealer has been working with me & they are willing to buy my vehicle back at full value or trade, this vehicle was very expensive & gm knows there is a problem, but keeps selling them any way to unsuspecting consumers like myself in my opinion this is just greed & lack of caring for loyal customers that keep gm in business. "remember the bailout".
