Spent the whole morning at the dealership for a oil change and for em to check out the suspension.. It makes a horrible sounds when coming off sharp incline when the wheels are turned. After 4 hours they finally told me they couldnt replicate the problem and they drove the truck "pretty good distance".
So checked my truck and they drove it a whopping .5 miles. I left my dash cam on to see what all they did.. The truck sat for 3 hours 15 mins, He drove it around the back parking lot one time.. Then took em 30 mins to change the oil.
Plus the rear end is already clunking again and they did the tsb the last oil change. So come next oil change it will have around 35k miles and i am not leaving till everything is fixed, since the bumper to bumper warranty will be out.

Another thing i noticed is they had a nifty alignment machine there where you pull up. After watching the video it showed the results, which i couldnt see from the dash cam, but it showed both front tires Red, and the back ones green. Im guessing it may be out of alignment but yet they didnt say anything and couldnt find the suspension problem, Bet if i were out of warranty they would find all kind of problems.

Yes.. No problems ever with it. Yet the 13 model has the little annoyances like the clunky rear end, and suspension problems already. Atleast the motor and tranny are strong. I think
