So.... back in the shop today. They provided me a Suburban (2015 LT) from Enterprise. It drives better than mine! Onto what they did today. I complained of same low speed vibration. See the attached email from my service advisor. So basically they have replaced 3 of the 4 tires. Bridgestone for Bridgestone. Ridiculous. How long until it vibrates again!

Got the vehicle back.... here was the diagnosis. They replaced another tire. So now, 3 of the 4 tires have been replaced. Vibration still there. 6a895c48c50d8754d993814854c13518.jpg

ha. 21lbs is still high in general and especially for these trucks. I thought there was an update stating that 15+ trucks with buffeting/vibration should be under 15lbs. Many of us that have resolved the buffeting have had road force numbers between 12-15lbs as a first attempt. I made sure all of our michelins were under 15lbs with local tire shop...our vibrating and buffeting is about 95% gone.

Pardon my ignorance is this issue specific to MRC equipped vehicles or the entirety of the Chevy/GMC/Cadillac Platform. I did notice the issue in a 2016 LTZ Tahoe that I test drove, felt like I was in a helicopter. I asked the salesman if he noticed the issue, even though he was green and pekid,the snake stated, I dont hear or feel anything.......I ended up going with a Z71 Tahoe because of the issue experienced.

The entire platform. Regardless of badging or trim. Seems some experience it more on the SWB models.

Another forum member just received a buy back from GM. Look at her two threads on the first page of "General Discussion". There is still hope. I would still contact a Lemon Law attorney even though there has only been two attempts and let them guide you the rest of the way.
