    yes. From day 1. Talked to service department today and now, they have opted against adjusting the angle of drive shaft and going to get a new driveshaft instead. Problem is, it is a back order item now and they aren’t sure when it will be available. Starting to sound to me like they are just kicking the can on down the road a piece. Starting to piss me off now…

    They could send it to a shop and they may be able to fix it. Probably needs to be rebalanced.

    Possibly. I have the truck back now until they can get a drive shaft. I'll update once they can find and replace.

    Dealership (SoCal) recently replaced my drive shaft assembly. They said it was back ordered 3-4 weeks, but it arrived within a week. Hope yours arrives quick!

    Why did you need yours replaced? Vibration too? Do you have an extended bed?

    I agree
    I bought 4 brand new Michelin LTX and left the tire shop to feel a vibration in my truck around 40 mph and then it would smooth at about 50 so took them back and they road tested and came to a conclusion that they would re-balance the tires.They gave me the truck back and sure enough again started to vibrate at the same speed. Took it back and they said that they would order new tires as these where some kind of defects on the belts or whatever.
    The new tires came in about 3 days later and bingo the truck drove like it should no vibrations nothing. So I do believe that new tires could have flaws too.

    5’ bed.
    I have a rotational humming noise going on at low speeds. The dealership took a guess that it was the center bearing and replaced the whole rear assembly. That wasn’t it. I’m still chasing the cause of the hum.

    You all really need to be specific on the location, type, frequency of these vibrations. There are multiple sources of vibrations and you need to be as specific as possible to narrow it down. Saying that a vibration occurs at 40mph doesn't give enough information. What will cause your steering wheel to rock back and forth won't be the same cause as you feeling it in your seat. Not to mention the rocking in the steering wheel wouldn't have the same cause as it feeling like the vibration of someone hitting the steering wheel with a hammer. Basically, anything in your driveline that rotates can cause problems.
