    Front end clunk while turning - FIXED - TSB # 23-047-18

    Air suspension no clunk. But my 09 Seirra developed one around 70K miles and dealer changed control arms and didn’t fix it. I kept telling them I thought it was a strut mount and they wouldn’t listen. At 162k I changed out front struts/ mounts springs and rear shocks due to milage. Like magic it...

    Auto Brake Feature - Be Careful

    When mine was a week old my brake sensor warning lite up when crossing a canilever bridge on the Ohio River but it didn’t engage the brakes. It did it agian a few weeks later crossing it agian. My guess is the arch of the road or the steel in the bridge is confusing the sensor. Fast forward to...

    Monster Door Ding

    I have the PDR insurance through my dealer and took it by today and they took pictures and started the claim process. My Service guy said he wasn’t sure if they could get it out but would contact me when he knew something. I have a buddy that runs a body shop that does fantastic work and I...

    12'' vs 8.4'' Screen - Better Investment?

    I have the 12” screen and love it. It can be a little glitchy at times but I figure that will be fixed through updates. It is also an attention getter. First thing eveyone says is “ look at that screen “. I’m guessing Ford will follow in the next Gen since the new Navigator has a similar screen.

    Monster Door Ding

    Exactly what I said. I am paranoid anyway since I was victim to too seprtate shopping cart attacks on my GMC. I try to park away from all other cars. Look at the attached pic of the car that parked next to me today after soccer practice. Take note that the parking lot was mostly empty and I...

    2019 Folding Tonneau Cover: OEM vs BakFlip vs Gator

    Anything lower than the cover you will have full access to the bed. If cargo is as higher you may lose 4-6” back by the cab. I actually took a load of pulled up carpet/ boxes to the dump today and had allot more space than my old hard cover on my Sierra. Best part was I climbed in the bed with...

    2019 Folding Tonneau Cover: OEM vs BakFlip vs Gator

    I didn’t try to get them down any. I needed it quick since we were leaving in a few days for a 10 day beach trip and taking the truck. Only water I have noticed is just a trickle in the corners where it meets the tailgate. I keep boxes with customer handouts, baseball, soccer bags in the bed and...

    ECO mode, fuel saving mode not working

    Yes. For the the light to come on you have to have it turned on through the unconnect. Mine comes on anytime it’s under light load or coasting. Also note that it won’t come on when you are in tow mode or usimg the gear limit.

    First oil change - Lifter Noise

    Had the dealer change mine @ 3100 miles. I took in a case of Amsoil Signature and had them use a mopar filter. They charged me $12.50 to change plus filter. AMSOIL was free from my father which has more cases of oil than Napa in his garage.
