Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I bought a 06 chevy silverado pickup in june 06. the truck has 1800 miles on it and it has a bad vibration at any speed over 30 mph. i have brought the truck back to the dealer 4 times and each time they rebalance the tires. the last time i was there they let 5 lbs of air out of each tire. they are now telling me that it is "the nature of the beast" and the tires have to get broke it before the vibration will stop. the truck has general ameritrac p245/70/r17 tires on it. i took the truck to a local tire dealer and was told that the tires are out of round and loping causing the vibration in the truck. the dealer keeps giving me the saying they are waiting for the chevrolet factory rep to come there. i an afraid to drive the truck with this vibration as i am unable to walk and use a wheelchair and i don't want to be broke down someplace with this truck. what can i do to get this problem resolved? *nm
