EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO GARAGE AND GARAGE FLOOR. EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO TRUCK'S ELECTRICAL AND ENGINE AREA. DEALER TOLD ME IT IS A GM PROBLEM. NOW DEALING WITH GM LEGAL DEPT.

VEHICLE BUCKS AND HESITATES WHEN PRESSING GAS PEDAL RIDING IN 6TH GEAR AT SPEEDS UP TO 50MPH. IF YOU GIVE IT GAS IT GETS WORSE AND FINALLY AFTER 5 SECS IT WILL DOWN SHIFT 2 OR 3 GEARS AND GO WAY TO FAST. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO DEALER TWICE AND THEY SAID TRANSMITION WAS STILL IN LEARNING MODE AND SHOULD CLEAR UP. WELL ITS AT 15,000 MILES AND STILL HAS PROBLEM. IF I PUT IT TOW MODE IT DOES NOT HAPPEN...SHIFT POINT CALIBRATION IS NEEDED BADLY ON THIS TRUCK

TRUCK HAS 11K MILES. WHEN BREAKING AT LOW SPEEDS, I GET A LOT OF BREAK SQUEAL. THIS HAPPENS DRIVING FORWARD OR IN REVERSE. ALSO, WHEN DRIVING THE TRUCK HAS A HARD TIME SHIFTING AND MAKES A RATTLING/PINGING NOISE WHEN IT IS TRYING TO FIND THE CORRECT GEAR. THIS HAPPENS SPORADICALLY WHEN DRIVING SLOW, FAST, UPHILL, AND MOSTLY OCCURS DURING ACCELERATION. THE SHIFTING ISSUE HAPPENS ON THE FREEWAY AS WELL AS CITY STREETS.

WHEN I SLOW DOWN OR COME TO A STOP AT A RED LIGHT . THE TRUCK STARTS STALLING AND DOESN'T WANT TO GO UNLESS I STOMP ON THE GAS . I HAVE TAKEN IT TWICE TO A CHEVROLET DEALER NEAR WHERE I LIVE. FIRST TIME THEY SAID THEY HAD TO DO SOMETHING TO THE COMPUTER . SECOND TIME THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG AND I DIDN'T EVEN GET ANY PAPERWORK TO SHOW I HAD TAKEN IT TO THEM . IT IS STILL DOING IT .

TURN TURNS OFF - TRUCK IDLES LOW AND FEELS LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL WHEN IN TRAFFIC ON THE FREEWAY AND AT A RED LIGHTS.- I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT AND WHEN IT TURNED GREEN AND I PUSHED THE GAS PEDDLE IT DID NOT MOVE. IT HAD TURNED OFF. I PUT IT IN PARK AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART IT BUT AT LEAST 2 TIMES A DAY I HAVE TO PUT IT IN PARK AND PUSH THE GAS WHILE WAITING AT A RED LIGHT SO IT DOESN'T TURN OFF.
