Has GM fixed the buffeting and vibration issues?

Well I’m back and sad to say I dropped off again for round three. This time they are looking at the roof bows and it’s at the body shop. I call a lemon law attorney and they are taking my case. GM was also advised I’m looking for a full buy back they will respond in 2 days with a decision.

Picked up my truck today on the way into work. “Oil canning” I had to google it. Lol
My roof was flexing while in motion. So they glued the roof to the bows again. Not sure if it worked. I want to drive it this weekend before saying yes or no.
Also Hired an attorney to look at my case

Wth... So they repainted the truck?
No they didn’t do this repair. They removed the head liner and re-glued the sheet metal to the structure roof bows as per a PIC GM put out. Sorry to say still not fixed !! I’m now using ear plugs to drive to work which helps relieve the pressure in my ears. It’s getting dropped off Monday morning for fourth try.

Have they said what they will try next. Seems to me all the tries with failure just adds strength to your case, glad you have an attorney.

I considered doing the roof repair with our 15 2yrs ago but ended up not as it is not a "real fix" not sure why gm is still ripping apart headliners in brand new trucks. It will either slightly help or not fix at all and eventually come loose again. It's deeper than a quick roof fix. Drivetrain and tires seem to make the biggest difference which is still only a band-aid fix.

Is it a 17 or 18?
