2016 Chevy Silverado LTZ Z71

[watrboy]

I ordered the pump, a new serpentine belt and a new pump stretch belt......$151.28 for everything is better than a $550 and $728 quote

You probably need it, but the test I read was to pump the brakes and see if the vacuum goes away fairly quickly. Something like that. Pretty straight forward to replace.

So, you get covered under warranty?

 

[D45]

I'm going to call a dealer and ask tomorrow

 

[ThundahBeagle]

I'm sure it is. I had my 2014 done a few years ago

Yeah. That's what I said before you went off talking about buying and installing parts. I know for a fact, as I had mine done. They shouldn't give you any guff about it at all, like I said. Unless it had already been done before, but it should be listed.

The infi on the recall is out there on FleetOwner, GM-Trucks, and the website you listed...
Best of luck. Let us know how it goes

It's not a GM warranty fix.

It's not a GM warranty fix.

Is a GM bulletin. Forced by NHTSA due to safety?

Looks like extended coverage to 10 years, 150k. I know GM covered a lot of them. Local dealer told me the parts were cheaper at the dealer because GM had to buy them back.
Go figure 🤔

 

[D45]

Well the TPMS issues was fixed , for free

Sensors were all good the system just needed to be reset

No more tire dash light on and the dash display is reading all 4 fine.

So...were there enough issues that GM decided to extend the warranty fir that specific issue only?

...either way, I'm past BOTH of those numbers

 

[D45]

NHTSA probably forced their hand due to the amount of accidents the part failure was associated with

I'm calling the dealership Monday to see about getting an appointment

Looking at new tires soon

There's now only one option in 295/65R18

The Wrangler Duratrac and it's like $433 per tire

I'm looking at the LT305/60R18 in a Toyo or Nitto that's around $320 each

I run LT295/70R18 Falken ATW3 on my 2500HD. Great tire, but those are all big heavy tires. Tires are a big expense anymore. But they sure last longer.
