As for the damage that GM allegedly cited as a second reason for denying coverage, Finn told me this was just scrapes on the rear bumper that resulted from driving off a steep hill, and also light damage to the fender allegedly caused by the dealership (Finn says the dealer fixed this). “They just basically were making things up,” Finn told me.
Ask a companion to pump the clutch pedal repeatedly, and then hold it down firmly in place. With the pedal down, open the bleed screw to let any air out. You will hear a hissing sound if you are doing this properly. Repeat the pumping (bomba) and firm (pirme) cycle until all air is out of the system and the clutch pedal feel returns to normal.
Kiloutou has bought five Iveco natural gas trucks for its equipment delivery fleet and said it will add a further 10 vehicles in 2019.
In 2015 General Motors dodged another recall which came four years after a federal investigation into many of the older trucks. Over 5 million Chevrolet and GMC vehicles were affected more so those in salt estate. The rusting occurred on the brake lines. Despite reports says that the rust doesn’t make the vehicles defective, the question is who on earth wants to ride on a vehicle with rust on them? The corrosion makes the driver of feels like the back wheels are smocking. The GMC vehicles that were affected were those built between 1997 and 2003 and some of the vehicles included Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra Pickups.
The recall covers 36 different Harley-Davidson bikes spread across model years 2017 and 2018, according to U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration documents. For the full vehicle list with accompanying model codes, click here.
North America (USA, Canada, and Mexico) Europe (Germany, France, UK, Russia, and Italy) Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, Korea, India, and Southeast Asia) South America (Brazil, Argentina, Columbia etc) The Middle East and Africa (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Nigeria, and South Africa)
The trailering package, with an included app, has all sorts of functionality. You can add a custom profile for each trailer; perform a lighting test as you inspect the vehicle from outside as part of the included Pre-Departure Checklist; hardwire a camera to the back—as well as see down the sides of the trailer, and use the aforementioned birds-eye view—and check the trailer tire pressure. (Considering the many available camera angles, it raised the question as to why the front view disappeared when a rear camera was added; the answer was short and sheepish: because the truck was made with only four available camera inputs, instead of five.) You’ll also receive an alert on your smartphone if someone’s tampering with the vehicle or trailer.
And 30,000 miles ago, the water pump, thermostat, and drive belts were swapped. If these parts haven’t been swapped more recently than these records show, I’ll probably want to take care of them soon:
Of the three, adaptive ride control might be the sleeper hit among those who actually use their trucks to haul stuff. While ostensibly used to improve handling in the truck’s "Sport" setting, the feature also works in conjunction with a weight sensor for the truck bed: if there’s more than 500 pounds back there—say, a pair of dirt bikes—the adjustable dampers stiffen up to add stability, making it easier and safer to haul unwieldy loads.
Nothing against GM, and I hope they get it dangerous issue fixed for real this time, but that is the most God awful picture of a Chevy. I have never seen a more hideous color or sick looking truck.
It is now clear why the GM mid size trucks have been "Mall Rated". Best be careful on the Mall speed bumps. I wonder if GM will recall or as one of GM’s said weesel its way out.
A while ago, Jalopnik readers advised me to thin my herd of junkers. When I didn’t heed that advice, it bit me in the ass, leaving me stranded. Now I’m finally doing it: I’m selling two of my cars. But first, I have to do a couple of quick fixes. Here’s how I did the clutch master cylinder on the world’s most unreliable Honda.
