@@toyota420xp A Ford...Diesel? Nope. Ford has gone downhill in quality faster than GM. If I had to own a diesel these days, it would absolutely be a Ram/Cummins. Tranny's are not the best in market, but they are a hell of a lot easier to deal with than all this crap.

@@eaglespetty The other problem with these engines is the high pressure injection pumps made by Bosch. The tolerances are ultra tight, and they fail much more often. When that happens, it sends all that debris downstream and destroys the electronic injectors. Huge cost to repair. The 2006 Duramax had none of those issues, always ran great, started in the cold, you could put a tune on it, and was just a great truck. Now they have so many electronic controls on them, that you cannot service them yourself. Even the dealers struggle with them. Enough is enough all right.

@@dougp8890 Same here before I wasn’t sold on Tundras I driven Fords, Chevys and Rams always swear I would never buy a Tundra. But after encounters issues with other brands tired of their overpriced trucks. I decided to get a Tundra limited TRD off-road package with the works at reasonable price I couldn’t be happier. The peace of mind of owning a reliable truck is priceless still understandable why some people might go other brands because of towing capacity.
Yes, we've had our Tundra since 2008 new with almost 300,000 miles and hasn't been in the shop for anything major ever! Just maintenance and it still runs like it's come off the lot. 😉🙌

Why don't you look up how many vehicles it takes to go bad before the lemon laws triggered and you'll see it's a waste of his time why do you think the Dodge Caravans never fell under lemon law even though one out of three transmissions fail immediately
Lemon laws are basically extinct. Few states recognize them anymore. You typically sign an "Arbitration" agreement now when you purchase a new vehicle. A third party determines who is responsible for a disputed repair between parties.
Why I dont buy a new truck..this will.make you sick of a truck that you owe thousands been there..oh yes last resort they will agree with you.and do nothing...
@@garymccarver5006 arbitration agreements cover your relationship with the dealer, not the manufacturer. Lemon laws apply to the manufacturer. Each State has its own Lemon Laws.
My dad was a heavy duty and automotive mechanic his whole life. He said “there is nothing sadder than watching a grown man cry at the Chevy dealership”. Poor guy.
This story hits home. I went through the same issue. In the shop almost every month for 18 months. I was on the towing companies Christmas card list. F 350 in my garage now and couldn’t be happier.
Strange...I've had 3 new GM trucks over the last 20 years. The first one needed a fuel pump at 55k and a crankshaft position sensor at 105k. Second one never had an issue as long as I had it. Currently have a 2020 silverado. Owned it for a year and 13k miles with nary a hiccup, and I do heavy towing. Maybe I've been lucky, but there are hundreds of thousands of these trucks everywhere with no troubles.
@Mansfield Man apparently you can't comprehend what your reading, I never claimed 100k and no problems. Go back and reread my comment. I've never worked for GM and I've never necessarily been brand loyal, I've owned them all. The reality is that no single brand is any better than the other. They all have their cycle of issues. To think other wise would be absurd.
@Mansfield Man truck 1 had its first issue at 55k just like I said not at 105k. Crank sensor failed at 105k. And just to be clear and fill in the blanks about truck 2, it was a 2017 GMC Canyon. 3 years old and zero issues during the 65k while I owned it. Maybe I'll be as fortunate with the 2020 Silverado...only time will tell. Good luck to you, whatever you drive. They all have their faults.
@Mansfield Man this conversation is pointless, you simply wish to argue, then resort to name calling like a 10 year old. I won't respond to you further, so don't bother.
EXACTLY! This applies with EVERYTHING! A few years ago I bought a used, nice, low hour tractor built in 1976, first production year. I now understand why it was low hour. Kinda hard to put hours on it when it's constantly out of commission. It has become a personal challenge! LOL

It's not just Chevy or GM. Vehicles are getting so complex now they're very difficult to repair. I'm having trouble with my new Chevy. But a friend of mine is having trouble with his new Dodge.

@@TheBandit7613 Buy a Toyota. They're made in San Antonio, Texas, employ lotsa folks, and they don't break down. I've had 3 so far, I put 200K or 250K on them and get another one, trade in value is highest in the country. I've never missed "one mile" because of the truck, it just goes - and goes. I've met a lot of guys who drive them forever, 600K or 700K, and still ready to go. They don't have all the "toys" that other brands have, but for absolute toughness and ruggedness, it can't be beat.
I always did like the GMC truck. I have own a few myself a 78, 85, 89 and an 05. With the exception of the 05 they all had rear end problems 3 rebuilds on my 85. All of the trucks the dash rattled. The 05 had a poor body started rusting at 5 years old. Made the switch to Toyota in 2012. Never looked back. The 1st vehicle I ever had that was never in a repair shop from new until I traded for another Toyota Tundra. This coming from a guy who was a dedicated GM fan since the the late 60’s until 2012.
Dude my parents did that shit to lemon while I was 18 and on a hunting trip . Cops were all over me because my future brother in law asked where I was in front of the cops like a dick . Years later I went down to a buddy to get some smoke and he just flat say yeah it’s like when yer parents gave me 500$ to torch that car . I was like wtf .

Each state has different laws and are based solely on the individuals vehicles in question. You might be confusing it with class action lawsuits..
@@thetrailoutthere he's definitely confusing it with a class action... Lemon law cases vary state by state and case by case or vehicle by vehicle as you stated...
Wife's 2017 Chevy has already required: a new transmission (92k miles), all new fuel injectors (106k miles), all new mag-ride shocks (94k miles), and new battery cables (102k miles). This thing has been a money-pit, last GM I'm buying. My 2015 F150 has been great, zero powertrain issues in 180k miles, and I use the heck out of that truck towing, long hauls, 4wd running, etc..
I had 3 Tundras, excellent trucks with zero issues. I wanted to get back into a diesel, so I bought a 2018 Denali HD and now have a 2020 Denali HD. NO issues with either truck!
Bought an '18 Ram 2500 4x4 6.4 hemi. Not the fanciest model, but i live in rural Idaho on a ranch. this truck has 65,000 hard miles on it. mostly pullin hay to whoever wants it. the hemi runs smooth and strong. No problems - a couple simple software updates. I didn't want the loaded model with heated gas pedals and all the electrickery that goes with it. my last 6.4 went 250,000 miles and still ran strong. too many gadgets usually leads to too many headaches...
That doesn't surprise me, RAMs are reliable but that doesn't mean that they don't have their own separate issues. But overall I would take a RAM over any other truck.
Neighbor had problems with his GMC and they ended up taking the truck back and giving him another one, stay after them keep taking it back be a pain to them
His time is worth something aswell. I wouldn't take a new one as a replacement. Then I'd hope KIA makes a new truck. My naighbors Ford has been renamed the super pooper and they give to questionable organizations. So no they shouldn't get a dime either.
Honestly, shouldn't have to go through the trouble of going back to them over and over. If you pay someone for a product, they should make sure it works.
GM has a ton of lawsuits going on due to their trucks having so many issues. I was going to buy a newer one but after I found out about all the engine, electrical and transmission troubles, I just kept my old truck but swapped the engine out, it had 398,325 miles on it and it served me well.
I’m sorry to hear you are experiencing this. I have a 2020 Chev 2500HD, z71, Ltz, 4x, Duramax 6.6 with zero issues at 26k miles. It runs great...so far. After hearing this, Fingers crossed!
I am a dedicated and loyal Ford owner but I would not waste those kind of troubles on anybody. What a hassle. Hopefully GM will step up and buy them out soon
Been a gm most of my life at least until the early 2000s now their quality sucks too.... Ford is not any much better, have a 2018 f 150 ecoboost 10 speed tranny already slipping on 1st and 4th gear , common thing with these from what ive read... seems like tundra is the way to go
I work at a gm dealership. I have 3 tickets on my desk right now, all with less than 7,000 miles and all 3 have bent a pushrod due to bad lifters. Last month I had a truck with 23 miles on it break a valve spring and drop the valve into the cylinder locking the engine up.
@@texan2u Almost 9k now and still going strong. All brands have their issues, you can find people who have had nothing but problems with all of the big three and people who've had none.
I had similar stuff with a 6.2 high country. Least reliable vehicle I’ve ever owned. Starting in 2014 GM’s quality with to shit, extremely hit or miss. Literally thousands of people I’ve seen with constant issues. After my radiator split and started leaked at 28k I let the dealer fix it and took it straight to a Toyota dealership when I got it back and traded for a new tundra.
I bought a 2021 Tacoma that started giving me electrical problems after two weeks. Dealer keep it for three days couldn’t figure out the issues. Mostly the engine wouldn’t start intermittently, 3-4 warning lights come on while driving, codes trip every other day, etc. After two more weeks of tinkering it all comes down to poorly made relays. Over half of the relay’s silver plated contact disk inside were not aligned correctly. Bought the smallest needle nose plier and work under a magnifier with a 12v battery running thru ‘em to adjust it. It’s been 2 months I haven’t had an issue.
I've only owned Chevy trucks.bought a 2020 dodge ram 1500 6 lug. New body style crew cab. 6.4ft bed. 1500 v8 5.7 4x4 with tow package... love it. Tows like a dream.
People can say what they want about Ram but their quality and luxury has greatly improved. Can't say that about GM. I have an 09 Ram with zero issues. Looks and runs like the day I drove it off the lot.
All these trucks built after the big strike have taken a big quality dive. I have a 2020 Tahoe built days after the 2019 strike was over and have had an issue or two but nothing major.
Same...thought about trading in my 2018 Tacoma (zero issues) for something bigger, and I was really intertaining new Silverado....oh well...Tundra it is....
@@cartere9981 it is. I've done many LS and LT, duramax swaps and the one thing I know is that if the systems aren't grounded properly, they display the exact symptoms you are describing. Something is happening at GM in regards to QC and electrical. Most technicians aren't versed on the basics to look at the obvious.
@@Jm8126-5 you're absolutely correct and it's known they have been short on ground locations/cables on newer vehicles as well. Plus the tin and aluminum they use these days doesn't ground well either....
I'm a life long Ford man. I've really never had many problems. Never had any major problems. They did any work and did it very well. Not trying to change your mind just letting you know what I've experienced with my Ford's.
@Mansfield Man l had all four of those engine's. I had a 400m that was tough as nails. Love the 302 l had in a 72 Bronco. I just love Fords and have all my life.
2003 F-150 with original 5.4 engine and transmission. 390,500 miles, runs silently, burns no oil. The 5.4 2 valve is the good 5.4. In 2004 they made a 3 valve version and it was the shop queen with phaser problems, timing chain tensioners, and several other issues.
I bought a 2017 super duty and love it. My next truck will be the power stroke diesel. GM has been going downhill in the quality department for years. They all have issues but when a brand new vehicle leaves you stranded multiple times, that’s too much to overlook.
That's alright but the next time you take back, you pay lawyer 200 dollars to go in with ya and have him ask to speak with the owner of that dealership. Not the manager unless he is the same guy.
@Mansfield Man please point out where I said he did not have to pay his lawyer. Second, it still better than eating the full price of a truck. Third, at least the last three companies I worked for have a legal services add-on to your benefits. My is $7.68 a paycheck.
I know EXACTLY what you’re going through! I’ve went through 3 “new” Chevy trucks in only one year! Many problems just like you’re talking about right out of the gate!
Sorry you guys are going through this. But bad news ,ford has plenty of problems of there own. All these new vehicles are nightmares. I own a 2002 Silverado, 2002 suburban , 2004 suburban, 2002 Tahoe they range frome 240,000 to 421,000 miles, just great vehicles. I still own them all today and would take them across the country no problem. I want to buy a new one but I just don't think the new ones are better than my 2000 to 2004 year models. Im a professional mechanic by the way ,i got stories for plenty of newer vehicles 2018 and present.
Just dumped my 2015 Silverado and got a 21 Tundra. In all the videos of Fords/ Chevy/ Ram there is tons of people commenting in about how they have problems. Me personally, my Silverado didn’t have major issues but I only drove it to 37k miles; and it never felt nice and smooth, always felt like it had gear issues, couldn’t figure out what gear it wanted to be in etc. Then I read comments on the Tundra videos, and most of the comments were like: “I had mine for 300k miles no issues” etc etc very rare did I see a negative comment, or a lemon comment. So I ditched the Silverado, and I’m putting my faith in Toyota. 21 tundra is the last V8 before they go to twin turbo V6 BS. Get them while you can !
Haha, My 2020 Silverado had a bunch of issues too, trans was shifting hard, the electronics were not working properly(the turn singlas wouldn’t turn off, the center console would turn off randomly like 2 times a day. And a bunch of other stuff.
That's true. I had a 2018 F-250 that had electronic gremlins from day one. Every time the dealer said they fixed it and a few days later a new electronic gremlin would crop up. After a year of that garbage, I traded it off. No more nightmares.
Where do you hear shit like that from?..... Like crazy yall dumbasses over Exaggerate yall see one video about someone talking about it and think it's a wide spread issues
I feel bad you had so many issues. I bought a 2020 August build and haven't had a single problem. Would have to guess reliability issues have been for the most part solved at that point in time considering this was a new truck built from the ground up.
I have a 2019 GMC Sierra , bought new in September 2019. I have had zero problems with it , has 11,788 miles on it! Love this truck !!! I have had Ford, Dodge and Toyota and they all have there problems!
Almost pulled the trigger on a 20’ GMC Sierra elevation. Ended up going with my other option, 20’ Nissan Titan pro 4x, Best decision I made. I know a few people who have had issues with the 5.3L, but non to this extent. Take care and best of luck!
Sounds like some type of electrical hit. Seen a GMC hit by lightning with similar issue. Hate to hear issues with the brand that's been 95% reliable for my business.
I got a Chevy Silverado, 1994, gotta 350 tbi at about 200,000 miles. Good strong and healthy motor, starts right up and she goes on down the road. I do most all my own maintenance and work on the ol girl. Keeps the cost down ya know👌🏽 These are the generation that were built like a rock💪🏽 it's too bad g.m. don't make them as good as they used to. This gen even to this day is a strong and solid unit.
Nice to know if the first digit of the VIN is a 1 or a three. If a 1 that truck came from Fort Wayne Indiana, I work at this assembly plant. I've been a loyal GM brand guy my whole life, the launch for this truck was very bad in my mind with a lot of electrical and model issues. Good luck in resolving your issue with GM.
@@movementonwheels to reply on your pretty solid comment. We drive on salty roads around here. Most trucks those years are pretty rotten to the point there not even good for used parts. My 05 Tundra is in pretty good shape so far.

Why I buy Ford had them all my life never let me down. My 2018 has been great tow whatever I want. Need to call GM and get a district manager down to check it out.
I bought a brand new 2018 Chevy Silverado 15000 miles on it that' left me and my girlfriend stranded in Reno 600 miles away they gave us a loner they said they couldn't look at it for two weeks they found out it had a bad fuel injector and a bad spark plug that should not have made that truck quit they trailored it down here when they finished it so I sold it and bought a brand new 2021 8 speed 5.3 crew cab it s been running fine so far I only have 3000 miles on it so far
The ten speed has been a great transmission since day one. It is the same one for ford and gm. The only difference is the programming period. It is hand built by humans, some will have issues, some will not. All manufacturers have their issues period.... It does suck for owners. I'm a die hard ford guy, have a 17 ten speed first year out. Has some harsh shifts, but nothing crazy. Ford does keep updating the programming though which is great to see. For the price of these damn trucks, they should be perfect. Lol.
2015 F150 EcoBoost, bought new, has 150,xxx couple sets of plugs, brakes, battery, one fuel pump which takes 20 minutes to change, and lots of oil changes still going strong.
I've always been a Toyota guy but went with a 2020 GMC AT4 duramax out of need of towing capacity, and I can say I had a couple little things but I was always able to drive it in and they got it sorted out right away. As for a GM gas truck, sorry I would buy another tundra in a hearbeat before I touch one of those.
TH, you are right on about all the Chicom junk parts. Delphi moved some 31 GM parts plants to Communist China. I wouldn't buy one of these turds if you paid me.

@@TrustyZ900 Buy a Toyota tundra they are made in the United States by Americans, with US components (my 2019 Tundra CrewMax 4x4 has more US components than any other truck sold in the US that year) and American made steel. No united auto workers garbage either.
And here they were advertising the 2020 Silverado was the most advanced truck ever made, I didn't like the body style at all. A scammer even called me a while back and told me I had won a brand new Silverado and told him I don't want it and already have 3 Silverados in my driveway.

I’ve owned 3 different Chevy trucks since 2001. Never had one issue. A few recalls for minor things, but it has never let me down. And for the record, as a red blooded American, you would never see a foreign truck in my driveway.
The top 5 most American made trucks are the Honda Ridgeline, Toyota Tacoma, Nissan Titan, Toyota tundra, and Nissan frontier, not always in that order. The frontier, Titan, and Ridgeline were fully designed in America for the American market. Mexico thanks red blooded Americans for keeping them employed.
@@Nick-ue7iw that all sounds like a truck load of Toyota bullshit. Especially considering the small number of trucks they sell. No one cares where your foreign trucks were designed. They are foreign, with foreign names on them. People like you send your money over seas to foreign auto makers instead of American auto makers. Your foreign trucks could be made in my home town. I wouldn’t give a crap. My current truck was made in the USA! In Fort Wayne Indian to be exact. And that makes me happy!
Forget the thousands of brand new clunkers GM has produced, Terry and Jacky fucking Bishop got a good truck, everyone can rest assured that GM has a clear name now!
Sucks to hear, I have the exact same truck 40thou miles on it no issues. Have several buddys with new gen chevys aswell no issues must have got a bad one
All brands have some issues now and then. I’ve always owned GM trucks and they have always been reliable for me. I own a 2019 sierra with 18,000 miles on it now and not one problem. I’ve had friends and family with other brands that can tell a story similar to this guy. It happens. You can’t just make a blanket statement like GM sucks. All of the American brands build good trucks, it’s unrealistic to think that you’re not going to have issues sometimes.
Oh trust me you’ll have issues with the lifters down the road, I always see DOD give these engines issues. (My pops owns a 19, transmission gave out at 42k miles, and dropped a lifter last Friday at 51k miles, he swears this is his last GM truck he buys) I have no idea why GM thought deactivating cylinders was a good idea. They are not the same as they were decades ago
The amount of electrical components while adding convenience features adds a lot of things that can go bad; older trucks and especially older diesels had a better longevity of engines
New a guy that worked in a Silverado assembly plant, said he never buy one, he said rain pouring threw the roof all over new trucks being assembled, inch of water on truck floor and just throw carpet over top of it
Bought a new 2019 F-450 this truck is a tank. I also have a 08 F-150 both run like champs. I put 100,000 miles on the 150 with absolutely zero issues. The 450 I have about 18000 miles on it (bought it with seven miles) absolutely zero issues
I have one and its the most undependable truck I have owned. I have owned 17 Chevy's since my first 1967... When my fleet of one is down for three months it's a big deal... Your fleet if one is down you just take another.... Me I have to scramble...
My 2020 base model Sierra 1500 only went to the dealer once when I first got it. Otherwise it’s been reliable. If you buy a base model trim without any unnecessary technology (safety, 360 camera etc.) you will be fine. It doesn’t have creature comforts, but it gets the job done at a lower price.
I wonder if the dealer has looked at the body control module yet. This module controls how power is routed and can cause a whole slew of weird electrical issues.
I feel your pain. GM guaranteed maintenance guarantee broke. You have more patience than I would have that thing would be gone by now. I bought a Honda ridgeline I’ve never look back doesn’t have issues works great don’t care what other people think it’s a very reliable dependable vehicle. My vehicles don’t start when I turn the key you can buy them really cheap because they’re no good to me. Life‘s too short to be dealing with a pain in the ass vehicle
Had a 2018 Silverado, went through 2 fuel level sensors, a fuel pump and some minor electrical issues then it started burning oil. About a quart a month. GM wouldn’t do jack crap about it. Sold the truck and got myself a Buick Enclave for traveling purposes only. But for truck purposes I went out and bought a 2007 f150….that experience burnt me up pretty good on Chevy/gmc trucks.
I walked past all the 20s and 21s on the lot and bought the last 2019 gmc available. Been solid so far. I had a 2013 ram 2500 Cummins . Not enough time or data to list the problems lol. Lemons are lemons . The dealerships should be ashamed .

@@dougp8890 Same here before I wasn’t sold on Tundras I driven Fords, Chevys and Rams always swear I would never buy a Tundra. But after encounters issues with other brands tired of their overpriced trucks. I decided to get a Tundra limited TRD off-road package with the works at reasonable price I couldn’t be happier. The peace of mind of owning a reliable truck is priceless still understandable why some people might go other brands because of towing capacity.
I'm in the same boat. 2020 at4 waiting on attorney to settle my claim. God willing I'll be able to go back to a tundra.
You should buy a 2021 Titan pro4x, I own a 2019 and it's been a beast with 0 issues!
Yes, we've had our Tundra since 2008 new with almost 300,000 miles and hasn't been in the shop for anything major ever! Just maintenance and it still runs like it's come off the lot. 😉🙌
Love my Tundra. No “Bells and Whistles “ but love my reliability.
Whatever made you give up the Tundra anyway,it's Toyota????
@@tameraortiz7485 Really impressive 👏🏾👌🏾
I’m a big Chevy guy but these newer gm trucks just have way too many issues. Sad, they sure don’t built them like they used to.
I remind me this every time I wanna trade up. No thanks 65-71000 and their junk
For me Chevy trucks died in the late 90’s. Those were great trucks
@@JaxWatchesandEDC had 2- 97’s loved them too , all my rides since 16 years old have been gm.... but their new stuff sucks. Look at the 14-18’s. They only made them 5 short years. Cause them are junk too... shaking , trans hard clunking, ac condensers going out. Etc...
I don't think it's just GM. They're almost too complicated to repair.
My 98 is still running ...... the best
WHY can’t he sue GM under the “Lemon Law.” ? There’s more than enough documentation.
He is.....
Why don't you look up how many vehicles it takes to go bad before the lemon laws triggered and you'll see it's a waste of his time why do you think the Dodge Caravans never fell under lemon law even though one out of three transmissions fail immediately
Lemon laws are basically extinct. Few states recognize them anymore. You typically sign an "Arbitration" agreement now when you purchase a new vehicle. A third party determines who is responsible for a disputed repair between parties.
Why I dont buy a new truck..this will.make you sick of a truck that you owe thousands been there..oh yes last resort they will agree with you.and do nothing...
@@garymccarver5006 arbitration agreements cover your relationship with the dealer, not the manufacturer. Lemon laws apply to the manufacturer. Each State has its own Lemon Laws.
The frustrating part is no one will ever compensate you for the money loss and inconvenience of not being able to work!
Or the time spent wondering if it is going to start every time I push the button...
They do !! Get a LEMON LAW LAWYER!!!

Yeah because he shouldn't have to cry. Now ford and dodge that's expected.... Lol
Get a Ford and you'll cry at Ford place cuz they have a lot of problem with them

@@therealDYL93 the video is literally about how bad they are my dude.
This story hits home. I went through the same issue. In the shop almost every month for 18 months. I was on the towing companies Christmas card list. F 350 in my garage now and couldn’t be happier.
Strange...I've had 3 new GM trucks over the last 20 years. The first one needed a fuel pump at 55k and a crankshaft position sensor at 105k. Second one never had an issue as long as I had it. Currently have a 2020 silverado. Owned it for a year and 13k miles with nary a hiccup, and I do heavy towing. Maybe I've been lucky, but there are hundreds of thousands of these trucks everywhere with no troubles.
I've heard from hundreds of people having trouble... I know that is a drop in the bucket but it is a real mess..
never had a problem with my 2020 Silverado either and i dropped the suspension 4inches in the front & 6 in the back💯 15K Miles
@Mansfield Man apparently you can't comprehend what your reading, I never claimed 100k and no problems. Go back and reread my comment. I've never worked for GM and I've never necessarily been brand loyal, I've owned them all. The reality is that no single brand is any better than the other. They all have their cycle of issues. To think other wise would be absurd.
@Mansfield Man truck 1 had its first issue at 55k just like I said not at 105k. Crank sensor failed at 105k. And just to be clear and fill in the blanks about truck 2, it was a 2017 GMC Canyon. 3 years old and zero issues during the 65k while I owned it. Maybe I'll be as fortunate with the 2020 Silverado...only time will tell. Good luck to you, whatever you drive. They all have their faults.
@Mansfield Man this conversation is pointless, you simply wish to argue, then resort to name calling like a 10 year old. I won't respond to you further, so don't bother.
You can give it to your son, with all the bells and whistles, he will have plenty of fun playing with the gadgets while parked in the yard.
This is why you don't buy a new body style immediately when it's released. Doesn't matter the brand
I know :( But I had to have a truck... I drive the heck out of them....
They started making that body (generation) since 2019 where in the third year so yes that’s kind of sad
2014-2018 was the last generation for me the current generation looks weird looking
@@10swatkins I’m a business owner too and have had great luck with Ford F-series trucks
EXACTLY! This applies with EVERYTHING! A few years ago I bought a used, nice, low hour tractor built in 1976, first production year. I now understand why it was low hour. Kinda hard to put hours on it when it's constantly out of commission. It has become a personal challenge! LOL

It's not just Chevy or GM. Vehicles are getting so complex now they're very difficult to repair. I'm having trouble with my new Chevy. But a friend of mine is having trouble with his new Dodge.

@@TheBandit7613 Buy a Toyota. They're made in San Antonio, Texas, employ lotsa folks, and they don't break down. I've had 3 so far, I put 200K or 250K on them and get another one, trade in value is highest in the country. I've never missed "one mile" because of the truck, it just goes - and goes. I've met a lot of guys who drive them forever, 600K or 700K, and still ready to go. They don't have all the "toys" that other brands have, but for absolute toughness and ruggedness, it can't be beat.

I always did like the GMC truck. I have own a few myself a 78, 85, 89 and an 05. With the exception of the 05 they all had rear end problems 3 rebuilds on my 85. All of the trucks the dash rattled. The 05 had a poor body started rusting at 5 years old. Made the switch to Toyota in 2012. Never looked back. The 1st vehicle I ever had that was never in a repair shop from new until I traded for another Toyota Tundra. This coming from a guy who was a dedicated GM fan since the the late 60’s until 2012.
They burn me that way in 1982 and will never get another dime from me
It would be a shame if it mysteriously caught on fire and became a total loss.
It happens all the time, I'm sure.
Dude my parents did that shit to lemon while I was 18 and on a hunting trip . Cops were all over me because my future brother in law asked where I was in front of the cops like a dick . Years later I went down to a buddy to get some smoke and he just flat say yeah it’s like when yer parents gave me 500$ to torch that car . I was like wtf . Those cops had me shitting myself and then found out it was inside job . Told my mom and she just like oh I know that’s horrible how those cops treated you .

My neighbor had a ford that caught on fire, common problem to do with a throttle control
I’d keep it parked outside for sure
Most lemon law attorneys are at no cost to you and they charge the manufacturer
All of these people talking about the Lemon Law are uneducated and naive because it takes thousands of vehicles before it triggers it
@@thecloneguyz I've personally seen brand new redesign trucks (Silverado new body) go through lemon buy back (I used to sell Chevrolet vehicles). What education exactly are you referring to because I'm pretty sure it didn't take hundreds or thousands of incidents to cause those buy backs. Each state has different laws and are based solely on the individuals vehicles in question. You might be confusing it with class action lawsuits..
@@thetrailoutthere he's definitely confusing it with a class action... Lemon law cases vary state by state and case by case or vehicle by vehicle as you stated...
Wife's 2017 Chevy has already required: a new transmission (92k miles), all new fuel injectors (106k miles), all new mag-ride shocks (94k miles), and new battery cables (102k miles). This thing has been a money-pit, last GM I'm buying. My 2015 F150 has been great, zero powertrain issues in 180k miles, and I use the heck out of that truck towing, long hauls, 4wd running, etc..
I had 3 Tundras, excellent trucks with zero issues. I wanted to get back into a diesel, so I bought a 2018 Denali HD and now have a 2020 Denali HD. NO issues with either truck!
It's coming lol
Chevy guy for over 40+ yrs. decided to buy a Tundra 5 yrs. ago. No problems yet & resale value, unbelievable. I lost maybe 3 grand in the last 5 yrs.
I did the same thing, love my tundra, 4yr 65000 miles, no issues. See alot of people saying bought a tundra.
Only buy Toyota tundra they will run a million miles. Best reliably.
Problem is they don’t make a 2500 / 3500
That's because truck resale value is sky high right now
Bought my tundra used for 29k 3 years ago, just sold it for 31k before the new models come out. Best vehicle I ever had. I will buy another later.
Bought an '18 Ram 2500 4x4 6.4 hemi. Not the fanciest model, but i live in rural Idaho on a ranch. this truck has 65,000 hard miles on it. mostly pullin hay to whoever wants it. the hemi runs smooth and strong. No problems - a couple simple software updates. I didn't want the loaded model with heated gas pedals and all the electrickery that goes with it. my last 6.4 went 250,000 miles and still ran strong. too many gadgets usually leads to too many headaches...
That doesn't surprise me, RAMs are reliable but that doesn't mean that they don't have their own separate issues. But overall I would take a RAM over any other truck.
Neighbor had problems with his GMC and they ended up taking the truck back and giving him another one, stay after them keep taking it back be a pain to them
Unbelievable,smh.
His time is worth something aswell.
I wouldn't take a new one as a replacement. Then I'd hope KIA makes a new truck.
My naighbors Ford has been renamed the super pooper and they give to questionable organizations.
So no they shouldn't get a dime either.
Honestly, shouldn't have to go through the trouble of going back to them over and over. If you pay someone for a product, they should make sure it works.
@@nmtay EXACTLY....
GM has a ton of lawsuits going on due to their trucks having so many issues. I was going to buy a newer one but after I found out about all the engine, electrical and transmission troubles, I just kept my old truck but swapped the engine out, it had 398,325 miles on it and it served me well.

Fingers crossed for you
I had similar issues with a 2019 f-150 and the ecoboost. Bought a tundra and it’s perfect. 36,000 miles since thanksgiving and no issues.
I am a dedicated and loyal Ford owner but I would not waste those kind of troubles on anybody. What a hassle. Hopefully GM will step up and buy them out soon
Been a gm most of my life at least until the early 2000s now their quality sucks too.... Ford is not any much better, have a 2018 f 150 ecoboost 10 speed tranny already slipping on 1st and 4th gear , common thing with these from what ive read... seems like tundra is the way to go
I work at a gm dealership. I have 3 tickets on my desk right now, all with less than 7,000 miles and all 3 have bent a pushrod due to bad lifters. Last month I had a truck with 23 miles on it break a valve spring and drop the valve into the cylinder locking the engine up.
Yep, should have them buy mine back. Or get an exchange
Dang man, I almost bought a '20 GMC, glad I went with a Ram instead, 4600 miles so far and no issues *knock on wood*
About 6K more miles and you can "wave goodbye" to it as it's towed to the "SHOP".
@@texan2u Almost 9k now and still going strong. All brands have their issues, you can find people who have had nothing but problems with all of the big three and people who've had none.
My 2017 Ram 1500 never had a problem
I had similar stuff with a 6.2 high country. Least reliable vehicle I’ve ever owned. Starting in 2014 GM’s quality with to shit, extremely hit or miss. Literally thousands of people I’ve seen with constant issues. After my radiator split and started leaked at 28k I let the dealer fix it and took it straight to a Toyota dealership when I got it back and traded for a new tundra.
I bought a 2021 Tacoma that started giving me electrical problems after two weeks. Dealer keep it for three days couldn’t figure out the issues. Mostly the engine wouldn’t start intermittently, 3-4 warning lights come on while driving, codes trip every other day, etc. After two more weeks of tinkering it all comes down to poorly made relays. Over half of the relay’s silver plated contact disk inside were not aligned correctly. Bought the smallest needle nose plier and work under a magnifier with a 12v battery running thru ‘em to adjust it. It’s been 2 months I haven’t had an issue.
I've only owned Chevy trucks.bought a 2020 dodge ram 1500 6 lug. New body style crew cab. 6.4ft bed. 1500 v8 5.7 4x4 with tow package... love it. Tows like a dream.
People can say what they want about Ram but their quality and luxury has greatly improved. Can't say that about GM. I have an 09 Ram with zero issues. Looks and runs like the day I drove it off the lot.
Crazy I've got a 2019 silverado and just turned 60k miles absolutely zero issues
I had a 2019 with the same results.... THe 2020 is a basket case...
I have the 2019 Sierra Denali. Knock on wood not one issue.
2019 Duramax not a single problem.
All these trucks built after the big strike have taken a big quality dive. I have a 2020 Tahoe built days after the 2019 strike was over and have had an issue or two but nothing major.
Every manufacturers has these, got an hour, I can list the 2020 f350 issues if you got the time.
Yeah, I think will just keep my 2016 Tundra.
Same...thought about trading in my 2018 Tacoma (zero issues) for something bigger, and I was really intertaining new Silverado....oh well...Tundra it is....
Your truck has a grounding problem. Ground the pcm and run a new ground to the frame and cab and those problems will go away.
Has to be something silly like that for there to be so many problems
@@cartere9981 it is. I've done many LS and LT, duramax swaps and the one thing I know is that if the systems aren't grounded properly, they display the exact symptoms you are describing. Something is happening at GM in regards to QC and electrical. Most technicians aren't versed on the basics to look at the obvious.
@@Jm8126-5 you're absolutely correct and it's known they have been short on ground locations/cables on newer vehicles as well. Plus the tin and aluminum they use these days doesn't ground well either....
I'm a life long Ford man. I've really never had many problems. Never had any major problems. They did any work and did it very well. Not trying to change your mind just letting you know what I've experienced with my Ford's.
@Mansfield Man l had all four of those engine's. I had a 400m that was tough as nails. Love the 302 l had in a 72 Bronco. I just love Fords and have all my life.
2003 F-150 with original 5.4 engine and transmission. 390,500 miles, runs silently, burns no oil. The 5.4 2 valve is the good 5.4. In 2004 they made a 3 valve version and it was the shop queen with phaser problems, timing chain tensioners, and several other issues.
I bought a 2017 super duty and love it. My next truck will be the power stroke diesel. GM has been going downhill in the quality department for years. They all have issues but when a brand new vehicle leaves you stranded multiple times, that’s too much to overlook.
Go to a lawyer present your evidence to them, have your lawyer call the dealer and GM. If all this true, they know they will never win in court case.
I have to go the lemon law route first... still waiting for it to fail for the 4th time :(
That's alright but the next time you take back, you pay lawyer 200 dollars to go in with ya and have him ask to speak with the owner of that dealership. Not the manager unless he is the same guy.
Find a Lemon Law attorney. If it’s a GM attorney, they will give you the runaround. My 2020 was a lemon and it got settled in 3 months.
@Mansfield Man please point out where I said he did not have to pay his lawyer. Second, it still better than eating the full price of a truck. Third, at least the last three companies I worked for have a legal services add-on to your benefits. My is $7.68 a paycheck.
I've owned GMC my entire life and never had an issue. I have a 2017 2500HD DENALI and it runs like a champ...
Pucker up buttercup, shouldn't have bragged on it.
You are running on borrowed time my friend.
Whew! You're in the clear now GM, one fucking guy got lucky with your vehicle
I know EXACTLY what you’re going through! I’ve went through 3 “new” Chevy trucks in only one year! Many problems just like you’re talking about right out of the gate!
Sorry you guys are going through this. But bad news ,ford has plenty of problems of there own. All these new vehicles are nightmares. I own a 2002 Silverado, 2002 suburban , 2004 suburban, 2002 Tahoe they range frome 240,000 to 421,000 miles, just great vehicles. I still own them all today and would take them across the country no problem. I want to buy a new one but I just don't think the new ones are better than my 2000 to 2004 year models. Im a professional mechanic by the way ,i got stories for plenty of newer vehicles 2018 and present.
Just dumped my 2015 Silverado and got a 21 Tundra.
In all the videos of Fords/ Chevy/ Ram there is tons of people commenting in about how they have problems.
Me personally, my Silverado didn’t have major issues but I only drove it to 37k miles; and it never felt nice and smooth, always felt like it had gear issues, couldn’t figure out what gear it wanted to be in etc.
Then I read comments on the Tundra videos, and most of the comments were like: “I had mine for 300k miles no issues” etc etc very rare did I see a negative comment, or a lemon comment.
So I ditched the Silverado, and I’m putting my faith in Toyota. 21 tundra is the last V8 before they go to twin turbo V6 BS.
Get them while you can !
I just need a bigger truck .. When they make a 2500 diesel class I will be there!
Note to GM, BACK YOUR PRODUCT, AND, INTEGRITY!!
Why should they, the government made TAXPAYERS "BAIL THEM OUT" of bankruptcy
not long ago, probably do it again.
@Mansfield Man BOOM ! There it is boys !!!
Haha, My 2020 Silverado had a bunch of issues too, trans was shifting hard, the electronics were not working properly(the turn singlas wouldn’t turn off, the center console would turn off randomly like 2 times a day. And a bunch of other stuff.
Once the electronic gremlins invade a vehicle, you'll rarely actually get it fixed for good.
That's true. I had a 2018 F-250 that had electronic gremlins from day one. Every time the dealer said they fixed it and a few days later a new electronic gremlin would crop up. After a year of that garbage, I traded it off. No more nightmares.
And now the 2021's are throwing engine rods like crazy
Haven't had any of that but oil cooler lines yup.
Where do you hear shit like that from?..... Like crazy yall dumbasses over Exaggerate yall see one video about someone talking about it and think it's a wide spread issues
GM is ranked last at reliability. I recomend do not turn off the truck when buying gas and park it in good places for the tow truck.
99 % don't have any issues with the trucks me included
My 2008 f250 actually heels it’s self. Meaning only the air fan stopped working and now works fine. No other problems ever. 200k miles.
I feel bad you had so many issues. I bought a 2020 August build and haven't had a single problem. Would have to guess reliability issues have been for the most part solved at that point in time considering this was a new truck built from the ground up.
I have a 2019 GMC Sierra , bought new in September 2019. I have had zero problems with it , has 11,788 miles on it! Love this truck !!!
I have had Ford, Dodge and Toyota and they all have there problems!
Problems are just around the corner
I LOVE MY V8 TITAN AFTER FIFTEEN YEARS ITS STILL A GREAT TRUCK.
Almost pulled the trigger on a 20’ GMC Sierra elevation. Ended up going with my other option, 20’ Nissan Titan pro 4x, Best decision I made. I know a few people who have had issues with the 5.3L, but non to this extent. Take care and best of luck!
Sounds like some type of electrical hit. Seen a GMC hit by lightning with similar issue. Hate to hear issues with the brand that's been 95% reliable for my business.
I got a Chevy Silverado, 1994, gotta 350 tbi at about 200,000 miles. Good strong and healthy motor, starts right up and she goes on down the road.

Keeps the cost down ya know👌🏽 These are the generation that were built like a rock💪🏽 it's too bad g.m. don't make them as good as they used to. This gen even to this day is a strong and solid unit.
That's a sad story. I've had several GM trucks since 1994, and currently have a 2020. I've never had an issue.
I think I have had 17 since 1973.... NO more :(
Same I have always bought GM trucks. Very few issues over the years....
Nice to know if the first digit of the VIN is a 1 or a three. If a 1 that truck came from Fort Wayne Indiana, I work at this assembly plant. I've been a loyal GM brand guy my whole life, the launch for this truck was very bad in my mind with a lot of electrical and model issues. Good luck in resolving your issue with GM.

The ten speed has been a great transmission since day one. It is the same one for ford and gm. The only difference is the programming period.

I would buy a Ford over a Chevy, I'm driving an 03' Ford Ranger Edge as my daily driver and I love it👍🇺🇸..
Sound like a case for Pine Hollow Auto diagnostics.
My 17 Camaro had the fuel issue too. I was told it's the way the nozzle interacted within the inlet. Typically only in the winter.
I have bought 4 Cavaliers , 1sonic and all ran great but these trucks are too complex now
My late father worked for Chevy for 26 years and he always said never buy a new model in its first year, Never buy a vehicle made on Monday or Friday because the quality is garbage. I don’t care what haters say about Ram trucks I have had 4 of them and never had issues like this.
I’ve got a 91 k1500. I had to change a brake line last week.
I’ve owned 3 different Chevy trucks since 2001. Never had one issue. A few recalls for minor things, but it has never let me down. And for the record, as a red blooded American, you would never see a foreign truck in my driveway.
The top 5 most American made trucks are the Honda Ridgeline, Toyota Tacoma, Nissan Titan, Toyota tundra, and Nissan frontier, not always in that order. The frontier, Titan, and Ridgeline were fully designed in America for the American market.
Mexico thanks red blooded Americans for keeping them employed.
@@Nick-ue7iw that all sounds like a truck load of Toyota bullshit. Especially considering the small number of trucks they sell. No one cares where your foreign trucks were designed. They are foreign, with foreign names on them. People like you send your money over seas to foreign auto makers instead of American auto makers. Your foreign trucks could be made in my home town. I wouldn’t give a crap. My current truck was made in the USA! In Fort Wayne Indian to be exact. And that makes me happy!
Oh, thank goodness! Don't worry GM, Terry Bishop has had good luck with a few of your vehicles, you're all in the fucking clear now! Hooray!
Forget the thousands of brand new clunkers GM has produced, Terry and Jacky fucking Bishop got a good truck, everyone can rest assured that GM has a clear name now!
You're not driving American Truck it's made in Mexico or Canada
Sucks to hear, I have the exact same truck 40thou miles on it no issues. Have several buddys with new gen chevys aswell no issues must have got a bad one
Two guys I know had problems 2020 engine knocking trans shudders other truck steering
my 2015 F150 still rides like new, no issues whatsoever, just change the oil a couple times a year and good to go...
All brands have some issues now and then. I’ve always owned GM trucks and they have always been reliable for me. I own a 2019 sierra with 18,000 miles on it now and not one problem. I’ve had friends and family with other brands that can tell a story similar to this guy. It happens. You can’t just make a blanket statement like GM sucks. All of the American brands build good trucks, it’s unrealistic to think that you’re not going to have issues sometimes.
Oh trust me you’ll have issues with the lifters down the road, I always see DOD give these engines issues. (My pops owns a 19, transmission gave out at 42k miles, and dropped a lifter last Friday at 51k miles, he swears this is his last GM truck he buys) I have no idea why GM thought deactivating cylinders was a good idea. They are not the same as they were decades ago
The amount of electrical components while adding convenience features adds a lot of things that can go bad; older trucks and especially older diesels had a better longevity of engines
That's right... when we have to have tailgates that sing and dance the problems get worse... I have had very good luck with my last 6 diesels...
I'm in the same boat with my 2020 jeep wrangler I'm buying Japanese in the future very sad to see American companies selling products like this.

Jeeps have been fiat products for a couple years Dana.
U want more trouble buy a ford
New a guy that worked in a Silverado assembly plant, said he never buy one, he said rain pouring threw the roof all over new trucks being assembled, inch of water on truck floor and just throw carpet over top of it
Guess I'm lucky with my 2013 GMC Sierra so far haven't had any of the problems with mine that many others apparently are.
luck is a pagan concept
Yeah I have a 2009 gmc sierra 1500 everything works great but you guys know that crack dashboard
@@eduardogsolis9890 get you a dashskin cover. I got me one and it works great.
@@fyarbrou i know but hey we paid a good amount of money for our trucks to end up buying extra
Bought a new 2019 F-450 this truck is a tank. I also have a 08 F-150 both run like champs. I put 100,000 miles on the 150 with absolutely zero issues.
The 450 I have about 18000 miles on it (bought it with seven miles) absolutely zero issues
This needs to go viral if not gm wont do anything
They did ,, I am waiting on the final ok before I can release the details...
We have a whole fleet of 2019+ silverado trail boss trucks which are worked hard every day. Never an issue ! they are all 5.3L
I have one and its the most undependable truck I have owned. I have owned 17 Chevy's since my first 1967... When my fleet of one is down for three months it's a big deal... Your fleet if one is down you just take another.... Me I have to scramble...
What transmission do they have
Wow this video just changed my mind thank you for letting us know
Look at the F-150 and the F-250 if you want a diesel. I have a 2020 f-150 with the 2.7 ecoboost and it’s a powerhouse and good on fuel
Me too.
My 2020 base model Sierra 1500 only went to the dealer once when I first got it. Otherwise it’s been reliable.
If you buy a base model trim without any unnecessary technology (safety, 360 camera etc.) you will be fine. It doesn’t have creature comforts, but it gets the job done at a lower price.
Bought my 2020 GMC base model w/ 5.3 4x4 last year in October . As of today, no issues.
Really like the truck, only have 2000 miles on it.
I’ve owned 3 GM vehicles and 2 of the 3 were near lemons. I only buy Toyota products now.
Same here but I switched to Ford and I couldn’t be happier. GM has been garbage for years
Only problem is Toyota has a garbage look .... I wish they would change the tundra to something more stylish ... gm knows how to draw their crowd
@@switchx182 2022 Tundra concept is looking to change that. I’m excited for it
@@impaul41 they're finally making the interiors looking newer than 2012 with the 2022 vehicles hopefully
@@switchx182 seating and comfort stops me so far from getting toyota. I will probly fold and get a 2door taco
I wonder if the dealer has looked at the body control module yet. This module controls how power is routed and can cause a whole slew of weird electrical issues.
They replace the one on mine and I think they did the same on his....
Apply the Lemon 🍋 Law now !
Don’t wait for a miracle !
My 2019 2500 had electric issues
They finally replaced the body control module
It’s been 6 weeks. No problem. Fingers crossed.
China made parts are the problem.
My dad is set on getting a Chevy 2500hd. I hope he doesn’t have any problems
I had heard people had problems, but I went ahead anyway.. Never thought it would happen to me :(
I'm a GM mechanic, folks ! I hate to say this. They're living on our hoists. Just horrible engineering.
I feel your pain. GM guaranteed maintenance guarantee broke. You have more patience than I would have that thing would be gone by now. I bought a Honda ridgeline I’ve never look back doesn’t have issues works great don’t care what other people think it’s a very reliable dependable vehicle. My vehicles don’t start when I turn the key you can buy them really cheap because they’re no good to me. Life‘s too short to be dealing with a pain in the ass vehicle
My 2015 has never had a issue now at 120k and the only issue is condenser that all the gm truck from 2015 to 2019 has.
I am a retired certified technician and I buy Toyota's and Honda's because I don't want to have to work on my stuff after working all day. :):):)
Had a 2018 Silverado, went through 2 fuel level sensors, a fuel pump and some minor electrical issues then it started burning oil. About a quart a month. GM wouldn’t do jack crap about it. Sold the truck and got myself a Buick Enclave for traveling purposes only. But for truck purposes I went out and bought a 2007 f150….that experience burnt me up pretty good on Chevy/gmc trucks.
He says he's has many videos on it but I don't see a link to his channel, I'd like to see his videos..

I walked past all the 20s and 21s on the lot and bought the last 2019 gmc available. Been solid so far. I had a 2013 ram 2500 Cummins . Not enough time or data to list the problems lol. Lemons are lemons . The dealerships should be ashamed .
