2015 Silverado almost got me killed because I cannot accelerate past 98 MPH have called GM several times and have gotten runaround dealership says they cannot do anything I must call GM. Maybe time to get a lawyer involved clear case of being mislead almost causing major freeway accident had I not gone out through meridian. $ 50,000.00 and the truck wont pass 98 and GM wont solve issues and respond in a timely manner, have been calling for the last 2 weeks and only owned the truck for 3-weeks

The top speed of the 2014/15 Silverados/Sierras is governed at 99mph with the factory equipped 5.3 V8 & 4.3 V6 on all models.

The top speed of the 2014/15 6.2 V8 models is 110 (governed).

I believe I've read that all 2015 Ford F150 models will be governed at 100, just to give some perspective.

One simply should not be driving a stock pick up above that speed. They are not built for it. And yes, GM does have a right to know how fast you are traveling as it would be them who would get sued in the event of a tragedy. Hence, the speed governors employed by GM & Ford.
