2023 Colorado zr2 
Авто/Мото
Sorry for being so critical but this is ridiculous. Thank you guys for all the support. Just sad that the real Chevy is gone.
I owned nothing but Chevy for a long time but their quality is dogshit nowadays. I've had two Tacoma's now and absolutely love them. Would love to see one on the channel!
Unfortunately, it's an industry standard issue! I have had both Ford and Chevy. Ford's customer service is just as bad. In fact awful from my experience and they are having lots of quality issues. I currently have a Ram that I've put 220,000 miles on without any issues so I can't talk about their customer service. Sorry about the headache for you. This isn't how they build and maintain customer loyalty!! I hope you don't have further issues. I've been debating purchasing the zr2 myself as a second truck as well, so it makes me second-guess the decision for sure!! Keep up the great content!!
Have had Chevy products for several years now and have had great customer service.
There garbage ! Man if would tell take truck back ! I would Demand fix it . Or sue them
I would try another GM dealer if you can, I work for a GM dealer up here in canada and we would cover that under the base warranty as it could of been a defect with the part, you truck is still new enough to get that.
Just remove the fins and place a wire mesh to keep debris out. They're there for aerodynamics, basic fuel economy bs for the Z trucks, my 17 Silverado Z71 had them as well and I simply removed the fins since they really don't do anything. Then just ground the sensor, clear the code, and be on your way.
You're welcome.
This is a great idea. I have actually seen a couple of other complaints about this same issue on trucks used offroad.
😮
or just get the raptor to where if something goes wrong the dealership will cover it. This is completely lame on how GM wont cover this part..its an offroad vehicle, why would they add this at the bottom to save MPGs makes zero sense.
@@sunny8784 Not everyone wants a Raptor (though nice they may be). They're rather impractical unless you're always taking it off-road. Most of the ones I see have never seen dirt in their lives. Hell, my 19 GMC Sierra Denali has seen more mud than most of the Raptors out in my area. For me, the 6.2L in my Denali makes more sense than having my 17 Silverado Z71 as it's more comfortable for the family, has a 12k tow rating, can do plenty of off roading with the tires I have, and gets close to 34mpg on the freeway. Hard to beat in a Raptor for what I paid for it (49k used).
@@TheWolfMatt they arent impractical, they have very similar specs to this bugged out chevy. In fact it has 100 more HP and more torque. It has crawl control, various settings identical to the ZR2, if i was going to rate the ranger, colorado or the tacoma, it will be ranger raptor at the top of the list, then the Taco then the ZR2. ZR2 has had major issues and bugs, such as the battery dying with software updates, these louvers, and its surprising on how this colorado cost more. im sorry but its another chevy fail.
I was trying to buy a zr2 Colorado with the Baja package. MSRP it's a 62k truck. After 3 days of dealing with the sales person and picking out colors and options etc, placing deposit on this $62k truck, that is MONTHS out from delivery, I get to the part where I'm applying for an auto loan through GM. Another more senior sales person walks up to the table and puts down a piece of paper, then proceeds to explain that this already VERY expensive midsized truck is going to be $10,000 over MSRP because the Baja ZR2's are produced in such limited numbers and they only get so many of them. Nevermind that this truck hasn't been delivered and as far as I can tell they're ordering it for me. He claims that it's going to eat into their allotment of this specific trim level. I got up and walked out right then.
Happened to me too. No matter the trim, they added additional $5k on it. Had to buy out of state to avoid that.
They hit you with that just after the point they reeled you in and assumed you'd cave. What you did is the only way to impact them. Walk away. 62k off their monthly quota. I'm sure someone had some 'splainin' to do to the sales manager. No matter what anyone says, they are not flying off the lots. Not many people spending 72k on a truck.
It is BS and some chump with money to burn paid it so they keep doing it. The worst part about it, if you have an issue come up are they going to give you a white glove treatment? Nope. If they were smart, they would find a way to make you be happy to spend that money, create a luxury service experience package that is mandatory on rare cars, home pickup/delivery of vehicle with loaner, etc but nope, they just want to make a cheap buck.
It’s not just Chevy warranty. It seems all manufacturers try and get out of paying for anything warranty related
Facts!
Bullshit! stellantis just replaced a new engine with only 2k left on warranty. Then they replaced the tranny for free as well, because it wasn't synched properly when installed. Then they replaced the DPF system for free. So, it isn't all companies and it also has to do with your service writers. They do anything I have asked, and all of my stuff has been modified heavily, from engine to suspension. Chevy and Ford do not honor anything, I know I've been swaying friends to mopar for years!!!
Im running into the same thing with Tesla. I have so many issues and they constantly tell me to get lost basically. Recently I noticed the top of the steering wheel splitting and i sent a pic and they came back and told me that it looks like something hit or fell on it. I could go on for an hour typing out all the crazy things they tell me so it can be my fault. The pleather on the door handle has wrinkled up and is splitting as well and they told me "you are wearing lotion on your hands" which I dont think ive ever done in my life. The materials they use are so cheap and paper thin its ridiculous. All they are doing is making sure I will never buy another one of their cars again and I will caution everyone i know not to, as well.
@markberman8162 yeah jeep replaced my hemi in my grand cherokee adyer months of telling them it's eating itself.
Chevy rebuilt my engine on my 2010 silverado at 98k under warrenty..after calling gm corporate.
Face it...they all suck.
I don't think it's necessarily GM take it to a different dealership lot of dealerships do not like doing warranty work and flat out till you know they don't make as much money on warranty work as they would regular service vehicles
i work for safelite auto glass DO NOT leave the the wiper arm up without a wiper like that. they are spring loaded and the most gentle touch it WILL not might WILL break your glass. ive done probably 30 cars in my 2 years as a tech for that reason. just a friendly neighborhood tip lol
Awful company to work for
@@windycitywarrior71 yup 👍🏻
Probably happened when you slammed your truck into the mudhole at Rauch Creek. I wouldn't expect them to warranty that if it were my own truck.
A zr2 should be able to drive through a simple puddle without breaking worthless fuel economy parts 😂
@@RFRacing717 Drive yes, dive not so much.
I beat the fuck out of my Taco and it has had zero hiccups. He's no harder on that ZR2 than I am my truck. Love the look of the Colorado but I don't trust them even a little bit.
@@marcmo7138it’s built for off road from the factory what do they expect their customers to do with it?? Ignorance
@@skinzfan98 Except the plastic shutters aren't apparently.
I have a 2023 canyon at4 (my first GM product). I have never heard service people say “no” to every thing I ask or to issues that come up that have nothing to do with anything I have done to it more. Probably my last GM due to their awful service blockers
Every dealer is different.
But I find that eazy yes if you take it to dealer who sold it to you. Not always the case
um dude canyon is a GMC not GM and yes there are 2 different manufactures but are bother and sister companies but still like the look of them
That’s crazy but now that would be a good idea to check which truck is the best and for what use currently looking into buying a truck any advice
Bro, just got word I have a blown turbo. I’m praying. They they cover it.
I would hit a different dealership here in Illinois the chevy dealership I work with replaced a used trucks motor no questions asked when it blew up 2 weeks after owning it.
I had a 2000 Chevy S10 blazer ZR2 that I bought brand new. It had a lot of electric issues, and no matter which dealership I took it to no one could find the issue. They had all sorts of monitors and meters on it while I drove the vehicle for a few weeks, but it kept blowing fuses and codes and going into limp mode. The end result was me going to a Lemon Law Lawyer and GM buying the vehicle back/taking it off lease and then them giving me a check on top of that.
I've had many GM/Chevy products before and since, so it didn't scare me off, it only left a bad taste in my mouth for a while and the next vehicle I bought after that was a Chrysler product, which was technically a Mercedes with a Chrysler body and suspension.
It was just a date line.
Dude, you are totally justified I'm done with them too.
👋
Same
@RFRacing717 you need to get away from Matt Beaver dude. The dealership takes a big hit when they're doing warranty work. I think Matt is being sneaky and taking advantage of you. I know that is what happened with the Silverado ZR2 because you didn't buy it from them. It isn't the company it's the dealership!
Also may be able to trim the edge of fin down so it don’t rub and catch on the other,
One of those knockoff dremels from Harbor Freight or Amazon a cheap rotary tool would probably do the trick
I haven't bought a brand new truck since 2001. I paid 22k. And had it 15yrs with no major problems. In the beginning had a couple small things and Chevy treated me like a king. It's sad to see whats going on these days. And I hear it's with all of them. I refuse to get a new truck and pay the price they want for something that's made cheaper than the old ones and not as dependable. In the last 10yrs it has just got insane in my eyes. So what I did is got a 2004 pre emissions truck and fully restored it for 25k. I'm mean every down to every sensor and bearing and rubber boot. And one step up from factory engine and trans. Basically a brand new truck for 25k that they want 100k for a new one. And mine has was less Bs to go wrong.. as I don't take it to the shop anyways. Because they also are ridiculous. But your right, I don't know how the city folk do it. Must be why everyone is drowning in debt and we are about to see the biggest debt collapse in our lifetime. I'm pushing 50 and have learned from the past. I'm debt free and don't play their games anymore. If everyone would just do the same they wouldn't be able to play games. Just look at this year's Superbowl. The cheapest ticket is 8k. You tell me how a normal man is supposed to take his son to a game. It's insanity. If no one would buy a ticket then the price would come down. But it will probably be full. So they will keep on screwing normal man out of it. It's both the companies fault and the morons among us. Just like this country is. They will keep on pushing until it breaks because people don't stand up anymore and just allow things to go on. It really is a sad world we are in and getting worse by the week. And people just allowed it to get this way. If everyone would of stood up to years ago and just refused the prices and crap service then it would be different. But Chevy just like everything else will keep going until something breaks, until people have had enough. Until people demand to be treated like a king again. But if the look at the way society has completely lost their balls I would say its not going to happen soon.
Need to get ya on team RAM❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Mike see my Comment above... lol... I have a Power Wagon and 2 TRX's (21 Launch Edition,24 Final Edition) no issues unlike my 2021 Raptor and 2019 F150 FX4 5.0 that lived at the dealership... RAM has been GREAT!!! I think he is being way to nice given the issues he is having with GM...
Mike I’m a huge fan of you and Bobby I’m team Ram and Team Toyota
@TRX2021 just wait your rear window on that ram will leak. And guess what Ram won't cover it.
And Mike chimes in !
...like boarding the Titanic.
Thanks for posting this video, a friend of mine just bought an AT4 Canyon. I'll let him know to keep an eye out for that part.
When I bought my GMC Sierra 13 years ago, they told me just doing a leveling kit would void the entire warranty. Pretty much if you did any modification, your warranty was void.
Your dealer is a pile of sh!t and it's absolutely not true...
The warranty on the suspension and CV axles, not the entire truck. Spacer kits wear out ball joints prematurely, can cause the shocks to bottom out at full droop, and wear out CV's prematurely.
That’s not accurate. There are laws that protect the consumer. I have put these laws to use.
@@Ac22768 guess it’s no surprise dealerships like to lie. lol. GM has a customer program now where you can go straight to them if dealerships are doing these type of things.
Totally justified! Thanks for being honest. That will keep people coming back to your channel.
Honest? He's constantly putting up videos with clickbaity dishonest thumbnails making it sound like he broke the transmission or the engine blew up when it's been simple things like shutters that broke when the dove into a mudhole in a previous video. No manufacturer covers stuff you break when you're beating on your vehicle. Toyota does that all the time to guys that play hard offroad in their Tacomas. I have seen a ton of guys with Raptors that break things and Ford doesn't cover it under warranty. Pay. To. Play. It's a saying for a reason.
Dude justified! I was so close to removing mine! I bashed my Colorado into a ditch and the fins are rattling. But no CEL yet
Just delete it. You can cut the fins out. A lot of guys have done that. Most just make a wire screen to keep stuff out of the opening. Leave the mechanism and sensors in place and the truck doesn't know the fins are gone.
I'm a Chevy guy. I love my Chevy Colorado, but the Chevy dealerships suck. They are the worst.
I’d have to disagree. There is a small GM dealership close to my house. Not the closest, but second closest. My last truck was a chevy, and any time I’d walk in…they’d greet me with a smile, handshake and a “hello Mr such and such”. Went in for warranty work, and they touched up the paint on my front bumper and antenna. That dealership is great, truly a 5 star dealership. The bigger dealerships don’t seem to care as much like I am just another guy walking through the door, although they seem to have more qualified technicians working for them as they can pay them the dollars. I’m not saying the techs at big dealerships are “better”, im saying that they took the class to be qualified. Try a small dealership in the future, seems to work out for myself.
They all suck. They don't honor nothing anymore. Good luck everyone
Man! I hear your pain and frustration. Wife and I too are a Chevy family. 2016 Colorado Z71, 2020 LT Trail Boss Silverado, , 2022 Blazer RS, and just traded in the Silverado for the 2024 Colorado ZR2. I want to off road but your history has me concerned. Just bought the ZR2 yesterday. I hate to buy warranties but did buy the additonal 3 year warranty, with one caveate. It was $3,400 and I told them point blank, with respect, that I'd buy it at 50% off. Finance guy said he'd "look at it" and I clarified that I'd absolutely buy it if he cut the price in half. I told him I would it haggle. Half off and I buy. He checked with his mgr and I got it at half off. After watching you vids I'm sooo glad I did. Shouldn't have to buy an additional warranty but all the OEMs are dirty. Next truck you buy, bargain I the warranty. I did the same on our Blazer. Now I feel protected (🤞) and I don't feel like I overpaid on the warranty. Best of luck on your next purchase!
First time seeing your channel ( video) and was looking to move from my 2022 Frontier ( lease) into a Colorado! After seeing this I think you’ve helped me decide to stick with my Frontier!
Thanks bud
Chevy really needed that $1,000 from me. Seems like after this video it’s super worth it for them.
I had a 2021 zr2 that spent about a month worth of time at the shop for srs issues. Finally after repairing literally every part, the light went off and I sold it.
This was helpful, thanks!
My Father had the engine burn up on 2 Chevy Monte Carlo cars back to back, around 120,000 miles on both of them, and they were different models, different engines, and 1 year apart.
One was a 1998 Monte Carlo LS with the small v-8, engine burned up around 120,000 miles. So then he got a 1999 Monte Carlo SS with the big v-8 and the engine burned up on that one around 120,000 miles too. And when I say burned up, they just quit running and the engine was locked up, in both of them.
So then he bought a 2000 Ford Ranger XLT with 78,000 miles on it in 2014, with the 4 cyl wand a 5 speed, and 10 years later it has 168.000 miles and it is still running good. I got it when he passed away in 2014, and I still drive it every day. I just drove it to Peoria and back today.
i've lost about 4 of those fins and had no issues on or off the road.
Dude I am in Camp Hill Pa, I am glad I found your channel. Just subscribed!!!
GM don't no longer stand behind their vehicles! Leave them,....leave them hard! This is totally unacceptable!
Bobby channeling his inner Mr. Regular with this intro 🤣 got me dyin 🤣
Also, I got nothing, whatever lol
Best gamer collection ever!
Did you hit the shutter grille when you were off roading? If so, they don't cover customer's damaging their own cars. That being said, the shutters should be positioned better or protected better.
Yeah it would be better to just cut the shutter doors off and leave the mechanism and sensors in place. I've seen other guys do that already. Some look really nice with wire mesh in the space where the doors were.
I had a 2017 gmc Denali sierra and this same thing happened to me, they said it was common back then too.. I paid once to have it replaced and then it broke again..I traded it in.
I had the same issue with my ZR2. Warranty covered item. They look like vertical blinds and are active aero unless it was broken by some sort of debris then this should be a warranty item. The front grill pretty much covers them from rocks etc so this could very well be a design flaw. I would not pay a dime for that. I think you need a new dealer.. For those saying its his fault for off roading?? This truck is marketed as an OFF ROAD truck. Unless something is broken by negligence it should be designed to hold up under off road conditions
Your complaints are fair though...
Not really. He dove the front end into a mudhole and busted the shutters. Manufacturers don't warranty stuff you break while offroad. I busted stuff on my 2016 Tacoma and it wasn't covered by warranty.
I hear ya man. I had two Colorados in 2 years. Both had same issue with EGR sensor failure. I had the diesel so it would put the truck in limp mode. I kept fighting with Chevy because they didn’t want to fix it. They ultimately agreed to buy it back but with huge penalty (lemon law sucks in CO). I ended up just trading it for a Jeep Gladiator. Not everyone’s choice but I love it. I’ve had a ton of different vehicles and never been happy with Chevy.
Chevy just raw dogging you with no lube. Time to switch brands.
I feel you bobby I have a 2018 Silverado and need to replace a part and theres a nation wide backorder
Please look at the Pro-4X. You can get with ADO ( All Dogs Off-road) and Z1 for modifications. Plus I promise you that Nissan will not BS you like Chevy did. I am not affiliated with any of these companies but I am a customer!
I would not spend one more dime on any gm POs Bobby! Awesome content brother.
Is your pickup out of warranty?
Totally agree. Love the trucks but chevy doesn’t like to help with a thing. My headliner is coming down on the edges and I got told it’s from excessive where and tear. The truck is 7 months old with 10k miles.
These are the fins I hear people with chevy equinox, have problems. seems to not be an issue in southern states as we do not have the fins.
I was told the fins are for cars in northern climates. To make sure the car runs warmer when it is below a certain temp.
Is Hershey Park on the Hershey highway?
I had a weather strip issue on my Colorado and my dealer fixed it with no issue. Maybe it’s the dealer you are going to
I took out haft of them louvers out of mine to help keep my transmission cooler,
Did that work? I was kind of concerned that my Trail Boss runs 3/4 way up the gauge. It's worst in traffic, but thats probably when louvers are open. Thanks!
@@VortexArcade Cut the fins out but leave the mechanism on the side and sensors intact. Plenty of guys have done that. Should be able to find pictures. A lot of guys put wire mesh in the space where the fins were to keep some debris out.
@@karlschauff7989 Thanks for the idea. Does this keep the trans much cooler? I'd much rather get .5 less MPG and not have the trans die just out of warranty. 🍻
Trail hunter looks like an awesome choice, im interested as well.
Im running into the same thing with Tesla. I have so many issues and they constantly tell me to get lost basically. Recently I noticed the top of the steering wheel splitting and i sent a pic and they came back and told me that it looks like something hit or fell on it.

I had it happen with my 2016 Tacoma. Just like this kid, I was wheeling offroad and something broke because my 4WD wasn't working right afterwards. Just like this kid found out, when you play offroad and break something, it's not covered by warranty.
I don't understand how the damage can be considered user error if it is protected behind a grill. I would have gone to arbitration and you may consider that as an option if you feel that the issue is indeed a quality issue vs. user self-damaged.
i have a 2020 Colorado ZR2! i wish a would have never got ride of my 2020 Ranger XLT FX4 it just didn't have some of the cosmetic things i wanted but had so much more then my Colorado that i used, like crawl control, trail management system and the mpg even with a heavy foot it got better then the Colorado even when i using cruse control on highway ranger still gets better in city Colorado 13-16 city 15-18 highway must use cruse control for 18mpg, Ranger 17-19 city 21-24 with cruse control could get up to 25mpg this is the biggest reason i miss it! with my Colorado i was giving GM a 4th try after 6 almost 7 years hope i have a better experience then i keep hearing!
It sucks you’re having a bad experience, I’ve been fortunate to never have a bad experience with getting warranty work done. My 2023 ZR2 was just in the shop getting two faulty parts replaced (front radiator shutter, and the brake pedal master boost cylinder) they were both under warranty. That’s unbelievable that the dealer is giving you such problems.
Often times the service dept will upsell the parts that they get from their own parts dept.
If it’s a part like the one mentioned on your video, simply check their parts department for the price difference
To be honest certain things are covered under the factory warranty and extended warranty
The only item I had that wasn’t covered under any of those warranty’s was my battery which didn’t have a full 3 yrs of usage but I bought the battery myself from their parts department and save $100
This issue if it doesn’t get fixed with resetting the computer by clearing the code try to buy the part and replace it yourself
Do you still have the factory ZR2 wheels? Those are the wheels I want for my Colorado Trail Boss , I just paid it off in 6 months, now I want to make it look like I want it too!
Maybe I need to be knocking on wood, but my 22 Trail Boss with 50,000 miles has had 1 warranty job done on it, that was moving the vent hose from the bottom of the truck to the top. (for the fuel tank). Drive 70% country roads, a lot of times in 4 wheel drive this winter. couldn't ask for a better truck.
so GM basically said "its not our fault we used a cheap plastic part on the premier version of our vehicle, and then made a small bumper that cant protect it."
Silicone wipers are amazing when there is a good deal of rain or snow otherwise their a complete pain. Also you got to clean them every now and then. Still waiting on a massive rainstorm
I think it was a good video and informative. How a company treats its customer is super important. I think you're completely correct in being upset w/Chevy.
My ranger tremor came stock with something very similar to your ad. whatever the tremor is does the same 😅😢
Thats why I haven’t replaced my truck. Gm has too many issues that are known issues and the worst thing is that they just wont fix things and every year they keep gettin more expensive. All the issues that the trucks have lately do not justify the price jump.
Good to know. I'm checking the market. Trying to decide between Colorado ZR2, Tacoma Off-Road, or Rubicon Gladiator (if Jeep brings down prices.)
Those active vents an be opened and then unplugged, or removed all together.
No they can't. That would cause instant check engine light. Obviously the computer monitors the shutter system, which is why he has the light in the first place, and it being unplugged is going to set the light when the computer can't monitor it.
Fix it yourself! Pull the part and to repair the part. I've done it a lot.
I’m pretty sure they have your name somewhere lol… never had warranty issues. Also maybe you should find a new dealer cause it’s up to the dealer to replace these things so go somewhere else
I appreciate your emotionally gripping speech. And you did everything right I’m proud of you but you can’t throw the entire brand away. Let’s go back to older Chevy trucks like you started with remember the blue Chevy you had. Ahhh such simple times let’s find one like that If you go with some other brand your not familiar with you will be unhappy then the channel suffers and shuts down the fans will miss you and it’s the end of the world
Older trucks don't get as much views, way better for the channel to do new model years.
@@shanemikula7574 He Can build one with Andy and Curtis. Then off-road it and know it will be fun and family togetherness too and avoid warranties and emotional distress 👍.
You are totally justified to be upset with them. I am a die-hard Chev guy, and I have seen from experience, that they don't build them like they used to. I've owned S10, S15, Blazer, Jimmy, Camaro, Corvette, and Silverado Chevrolet vehicles. My Chevrolet dealership financially burnt me on my last Chev, and I haven't bought a Chevrolet since.
I couldn't say I blame ya. You should look into the Jeep
Gladiators also. I loved the one I had. I hope to own another someday.
Wow that's bullshit Bobby they should cover that! Dealerships can be horrible about warranting vehicles and that's so wrong. Keep up the good work
I was considering a GM/Chevy half ton (AT4 , Trailboss) glad I went with the Tremor.
Is this truck under the 32,000 mile bumper to bumper Warranty?
Not even bumper to bumper warranties cover damage from beating on your truck offroad. Watch his videos where he slammed the front end into a mudhole. The area where the shutters are is right in the area where the truck hit and it probably jammed up the shutters. That's what he isn't mentioning. Just like all his other clickbaity videos where he makes it sound like he destroyed the truck and it turns out to be a software update glitch that did nothing.
Watching your videos makes me love my 3rd gen Tacoma even more a 2020 100,000 mi beat the snot out of it and have never had a single problem with it. Rolling on 35s. Get decent gas mileage. No problems.
Intro was amazing 0:10
I feel ya bro.. I had a 18 sierra trans went out at 40,000 miles.. Then a 21 silverado... Trans went out at 65,000.. (both 8 speeds).. When I started shopping again I noticed all the sierras were made in Mexico. And the chevy I was looking at was made in Canada.. I bought a F150.. Made in Michigan.. GM has lost the plot bro.
Check the bulletin for recalls and the truck should have “bumper to bumper warranty”.
If I were to win the giveaway truck, would I even be able to bring it to Canada 🇨🇦 because it’s so new?
I would like to see a Ford Ranger Raptor, Ive been thinking about buying 1 myself. "whatever"
Warranty or not that looked like good size bug would break it
Hey you think that that is bad wait till you have to do the front break pads !! They are not available aftermarket and brembo makes them and they are$250 a set from chevy and the told me 3 weeks to get them and i had to have my rotors turned already with just over 18000 miles on my 2023 trail boss. I have looked every where for front breakes you cannot get them !!!
Glad I’ve watched your videos recently. I’m trying to decide between the Colorado zr2, ranger raptor and Tacoma. Definitely taking the Colorado off the list. If they treat a loyal Chevy owner with a big following like that I can’t imagine how dirty they would do me
somebody with a platform has to complain just so these big, corporate companies stop taking advantage of us little guys! i’m not even sure what a factory warranty covers anymore. It seems like everything that breaks on a new vehicle isn’t covered. They call it a wear item. Total BS. Let them have it Bobby!
Sorry for your problems But you should try out toyota tacoma trd
Have fun with all the problems. I had a 2016 Tacoma and it was a joke. Howling diffs that Toyota refused to fix. terrible transmission tuning. ABS module died. There's a reason why the 3rd gen was rated least reliable midsize truck by CR for liek 3 or 4 years in a row. The new one has a lot more power but if it's as reliable as the new Tundra, the engines will be blowing up left and right lol
Have you tried changing dealers?
I damaged mine off roading same issue. Spent $1500.
Curious didn’t ford warranty the tie rods on Mike’s raptor?
Ford denied warranty for a lot of guys that had a IWE fail because the Torsen diff shreds up the weak hub locks. This kid slammed the front end into a mudhole and hit the area right where the shutters are. Jammed the mechanism up and the dealer is going to know about it since he puts the vids online. Manufacturers don't warranty stuff you break while playing offraod.

Its not just GM; its all of them now. Ford has known issues with the Raptors and they claim its nothing until the truck is out of warranty. Doing the service work is terrible. They sell it as an off road machine but god forbid it has dirt on it when it comes in. Toyota is the same way now. You spend a lot of money on a bumper to bumper warranty only to find out there is a laundry list that isn't covered. This vid helps others in pointing out failure points and asking, "is this covered?" and if they say yes, record it or have it written down. That is what I will be doing for the ZR2 Bison. I think its BS that you have a CEL under warranty and you have to pay to get it diagnosed - that is all dealers too.
I've had a 1st second and 3rd gen and have had zero issues 👌 gonna upgrade to a raptor r this year 🤘
Get a Power Wagon had mine for 3 years 98,000 miles zero issues. Also you dont need shutters if you have a turner the warning light can be turned off through it.
Ranger Raptor time looking pretty sweet!
Man, sorry to hear that. GM should really back their vehicles.
Sounds like you need a new dealer, they have a lot more pull in warranty claims than they like to admit. Ive never had the amount of warranty issues youve had.
But, but, but, “ I love my truck, I love my truck, I love my truck!”
5:44 Chevy dogs themselves at this point
Definition of Insanity. Doing the same thing and expecting a different result. The new Taco is gonna be the move unless you want a front locker.
Tacoma Trailhunt is a must. Please save up now so you can dump money into the Tacoma next.
I’m a gm tec here in Texas and I would have covered the shutter no problem 😂 it’s probably a tec that doesn’t enjoy warranty work but it’s the name of the game you work at a dealership your gonna expect warranty work
Ever since I switched from GM to Toyota, i've never had any car issues.
I only found your channel because I was going to buy a Colorado and I will absolutely not buy a Chevy after seeing this. Thank you.
I truly was going to get a 24 ZR2 this year but after watch your 3rd truck having issues with no help from chevy I'm looking at the other brands.
I absolutely love mine and most people do I have no issues on mine
It's not about issues, it's about honoring the warranty when something does go wrong.
@@haroldneaus6225 every make does that now. They are just greedy trash. Try to find the right dealer
Just your dealer. If there is no physical damage to it and you're in the bumper to bumper warranty time and mileage hen they have to replace it.
My Chevrolet volt broke twice under warranty and Chevy didn’t cover either. I called corporate and they offered me $100 coupon. I told them no thanks and bought a Toyota.
This is why I don't pay for the extended warranty. They are worthless. You owe more than the truck is worth the lot first day off the lot and then you're paying additional upfront warranty costs that wont cover you anyway. I had a sales person tell me "you know this truck has problems from the factory so you should get the extended warranty to cover the repairs, it will save you money in the long run". So I didn't buy the truck. These companies need to be held accountable for substandard products. I had an 04 Chevy and loved it. Didn't cost me one cent in repairs. You're really better off just riding a bike at this point cause there are no good options. They probably have think tanks comparing their vehicles to the worst out there. "At least ours isn't as bad as theirs". Great business model.
717 is my home, love it
Get a TRD Pro. You won’t be disappointed.
Time to switch brands!!! I did over 20 years ago and do not regret it…once you have a bad experience with a certain brand you switch and don’t look back..
