Troubleshooting Guide
View AllWhy does my truck run hotter when towing?
Load can expose cooling problems or exceed operating limits. If overheating occurs, stop safely and turn off the engine; tell Spence & Frye GM Specialist the load and conditions before the next towing trip.
Why does my truck sag more on one side?
Uneven loading or a suspension problem may affect ride height. Check load placement within manufacturer limits and have Spence & Frye GM Specialist assess persistent unevenness.
Why does my truck vibrate only with a load?
Load can change how tire, suspension or driveline issues appear. Share the payload and speed range with Spence & Frye GM Specialist; avoid carrying the load if control is compromised.
Why does my truck take longer to stop when loaded?
Added weight affects stopping distance, and a brake concern may also be present. Stay within the vehicle's limits and arrange inspection with Spence & Frye GM Specialist if braking has changed; do not use traffic as a test.
Why does my truck make a new noise after a long trip?
Heat, wear or a loose component may become noticeable after extended use. Note when the noise occurs for Spence & Frye GM Specialist; seek assistance instead of driving if there are urgent warnings or handling problems.
