    Buy a GMC? That's laughable. They are the worst of the bunch. At least Toyota is doing something

    GMC is also doing things now, I did state they took a while to do it. I have one thats a few years old and in the recall, its been a great SUV and reliable without any of the dozens of small issues that the Toyotas have on top of the motor.

    Have you not read about Toyota now hiding the tranny issues on hybrids?

    The AI reference quoted is referring to a Capstone specifically, on 22's.
    It lumps the ride harshness bullet comments together; the 22's and air ride suspension, as if they both contribute to the harsh ride. I agree about the 22's.

    I was reading a thread yesterday. The shuttering is happening in the transmissions and people have had all sorts of parts replaced. It sounds like they are quietly admitting to a software issue and have no fix available after people jump through the hoops at their dealer. So the Hybrids are broken too.

    What about what I said was wrong? I even posted a link to the thread? I can admit I've trolled things before, but this isn't a troll. Its a real thing.

    What makes you say that GM has fixed theirs and in the same breath state that Toyota "just says they did."? Isn't it equally plausible that GM is "just saying they did" too?

    I swore off GM after a horrible lemon of a car, and doubled down on never giving them money after the bailout behavior, so I am very out of the loop on much of their stuff. I'm legit asking for the sourcing of them actually fixing the engines vs saying they fixed them.

    Well, Toyota said they fixed them a while back, and we keep seeing new ones fail. A lot of people, myself included, don't think they've been honest about the cause.

    GM, found a real problem, and have changed the production and their newer engines are not showing signs of any issues. At least, from what I have read online, which @Breathing Borla thinks might be fake news. And it COULD be.
    **Here is a link to the drive article saying they are fixed, but less MPGS now

    However, we keep seeing new issues on the Toyotas. So, again, what did I say that was wrong?

    I didn't accuse you of being wrong. I asked for insight to your thought process because I don't know anything about GM.

    As my grandpa used to say "Don't drag your feelings out behind you and I won't step on them."

    If, given time, that proves out then that's great. However, this is exactly where Toyota was a while back on their failures. Until the sales of the new GMs go without issue it's still just words at this point. Neither brand has a lot of credibility on that front IMO.

    Next time anyone asks me why I made a mistake I'm just going to say "contamination issues".

    Be nice if manufacturers would at least get a bit more creative.

    With the OEM tires on let's say it wasn't the most comfortable here in N.E. after swapping those rubber bands out with tires that have more side wall (285/55R22) I will gladly disagree with the 22 complaints.
    Now with two years under my belt of driving this truck as a daily driver and driven in 5 New England states I've hit just about almost every shity roads and it's pretty damn smooth.
    Comfort mode paired with the hydraulic spacer/isolators makes a big difference.
    The bottom line is it's a truck.

    Tint and wheels. Decked box in the bed. S and B Cold Air filters under the hood. Shiftpower throttle response controller.

    So which is it? @szabo101 AI says I-Force Max has a debris problem. @75tranzam (the Hooman being) says the Max is not having the debris issue.

    My reading says the I-Force Max is not included in the recall. AI is wrong and you @szabo101 are wrong for doing your 10 second search to bring the wrong answer. THE FIRST THING IN YOUR AI POST IS WRONG!!!!!! And you frigging brag on the AI shit. That is crazy. Please pop in here and admit you were wrong for cutting and pasting that incorrect shit!! It is people like you that willl...........nevermind. Just go watch the movie Idiocracy. We know what is happening already.
