I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT ALREADY ABOUT MY 2018 SILVERADO1500 L, NEVER RECEIVED A RESPONSE ABOUT THE COMPLAINT FILED. MY TRUCK ROAD VERY ROUGH, IT HAD A BAD VIBRATION AND SHIMMY IN THE FRONT END. THE FRONT END WOULD NOSE DIVE WHEN BRAKING. THE TRUCK WOULD PULL TO THE RIGHT WHEN GOING AROUND A RIGHT CURVE. THE LEFT FRONT TIRE WAS RIDING ON THE OUTSIDE EDGE. TAKING TO LONG TO GET THE TRUCK TO STOP WHEN BRAKING. THESE COMPLAINTS WERE IGNORED BY THE GM SERVICE CENTERS, I WAS PRETTY MUCH CALLED A LIAR. THE LEFT SIDE FRONT TIRE EDGE WAS VERY VISIBLE TO THE EYE ON THE TIRE RIDING ON THE EDGE. CALLED A LIAR AGAIN. AT 16000 MILES I TOOK MATTERS INTO MY OWN HANDS. I BOUGHT NEW SHOCKS AND STRUTS AND HAD A CERTIFIED SERVICE CENTER PUT THEM ON. THE TRUCK RIDES WELL, NO MORE SHIMMY IN THE FRONT END, THE STEERING IS FINE GOING AROUND A RIGHT-HAND CURVE DOES NOT PULL TO THE RIGHT ANYMORE. THE TRUCK IS NOW BRAKING LIKE IT IS SUPPOSED TO. I HAVE A WARRANTY ON THIS TRUCK THE DEALERSHIPS DENIED THAT ANYTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE TRUCK. WHY WHEN I HAD THE SHOCKS AND STRUTS CHANGED THE PROBLEMS WENT AWAY. I KEEP THE GM SHOCKS AND STRUTS. I TOOK A STRUT AND PLACED THE ROD END ON A BOARD AND PUSHED DOWN ON THE TUBE THE ROD WENT INTO THE TUBE WITH HARDLY ANY RESISTANCE THEY WERE JUNK. I AM GOING TO MAKE A VIDEO DEMONSTRATING THE GM STRUT AND SEND IT TO THE NEWS MEDIA ALONG WITH THE PAPERWORK SHOWING WHERE I HAD TAKEN MY TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTERS. IF GM IS NOT GOING TO HONOR THEIR WARRANTY AND TELL THEIR SERVICE CENTER TECHS TO LIE ABOUT THE PROBLEM THE PUBLIC HAS THE RIGHT TO KNOW. I AM GOING TO PUT THE DATE THAT I HAD THE SHOCKS AND STRUTS CHANGED ON THE NEXT STEP. *TR
