Long frustrating talk with service director today. Had slight vibration at 75mph, dealer replaced carrier bearing, got lots worse and was constant, dealer had driveline shop put new tubes on my 2 piece shaft. That helped but still not right. I took shaft back to driveline shop to have rechecked. They said it was fine. I then found a bad Ujoint. Dealer took shaft and put all new Ujoints in. That helped lots but now I'm left with a shudder at 20mph that is much worse when I accelerate hard.
I want a GM driveline in my truck, dealer won't do it because warranty states they are to fix it the cheapest way they can...hence tubes instead of a $955 driveline. I'm pissed!
They did put heavier guage tubes in, .83 instead of .63, maybe something in the Ally doesn't jive with the heavier tubes?
Every time I've brought this truck in the dealer has screwed something else up.
Now they are telling me the only way they will do anything is if I let them just have it and do what they will. Shop foreman said driveline angles and shimming. It's funny how my truck all of a sudden needs shimming.. all within a 3 day period... So, if I bring it to them they will bandaid it but not fix it...
Any help at this point would be great. Wife want me to get rid of it and buy a Toyota like she wanted to begin with. Been to the dealer like 25x since November for various issues... I don't want to get rid of this truck but baby is due in 3 weeks and my wife is on my but about spending soo much time messing around with this thing...If anyone knows a good dealer or person please advise. I'm in Southeast TN..
