Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a new 2006 chevrolet silverado 1500, regular cab, long bed. it has a pretty bad vibration at various speeds, but it is mostly at higher speeds, say 50 and up. the dealer has balanced the tires three times and condition remains. i told them something is out of balance. they told me the truck has a known condition called "beam shake." i have had two other similar trucks and they did not have this problem. i feel a vibration at high speed is unsafe and can lead to a dangerous situation either directly, or indirectly, by way of a failure of a part, or loss of control of the vehicle. *jb
