2104 Z71 back to the dealer again

screamin chicken · 08-23-2014, 02:17 PM

I hope I did not make a second mistake, I had numerous problems with my 07 Yukon XL, I replaced it with a 2014 Z71 , and I have a continuous vibration, I hope I didn't just make a major mistake.....

I have a 14 also Crewcab Z71 LTZ no 4WD,where is the vibration coming from and when is it happening?I haven't had anything like that happen it could be a balance issue or who knows what.Good luck,I don't think you made a mistake though great truck,you know you get a dud every once in awhile.

My neighbor just traded in his 2014 due to so many problems, good luck.

Do you own a GNX,I had a Grand National in 1984 for about a year,had an accident and it wasn't repaired that well so I traded for an 85 Monte Carlo SS,I liked the Monte better.Now I see GN's selling for a good bit of money,but hardly ever see any GNX's around,there was one on Ebay a couple of years ago and it was listed at 106,000 still had all the plastic on it.

You probably made a mistake, but I hope not. There is a 179page thread on GM-trucks.com specific to vibration issues in these trucks.

Been everything from out of round rims, unbalanced tires, u joints, unbalanced driveshaft, improper pinion angle, right side engine mount needing 3mm of shims, trans not being properly aligned with motor. GM admits there is a problem but they dont have a solution.

Whats worse is the problem is often intermittent and hard to trace. GM will figure it out and take care of it for you.

I had a 2006 Yukon Denali XL.

I can honestly say that was the biggest POS I ever bought.

Motor ran great, besides that it was always in the shop. bought it new in 2006, traded it in 2010 with just under 60K miles.

I think he was referring to the OP with the 2104 truck.

LOl, just caught that!

Do the 09-13 Tahoe and Suburban have as many problems? I thought these cars were the highest rated SUVs in their class?

el ess A · 08-24-2014, 12:24 PM

Wow, and I was considering a new truck...but after reading some of the stuff on GM-Trucks, now, not so much.

One post hit home though. (paraphrasing) "Ford has the "Eddie Bauer Edition" while we get the "Michael J. Fox Edition"....

Got a chuckle out of that one.
