2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

I PURCHASED THIS TRUCK NEW IN NOVEMBER OF 2018. IT HAD 4 MILES ON IT. MY PREVIOUS TRUCK I OWNED FOR 10 YEARS. A 2000 GMC SIERRA, WHICH I MAINTAINED METICULOUSLY. I SOLD IT 452K MILES ON THE ORIGINAL ENGINE. SINCE I PURCHASE THE TRUCK THE TRANSMISSION HAS SHIFTED HARD ESPECIALLY AT LOW SPEEDS. I WON'T WRITE A REVIEW EXACTLY LIKE ALL THE OTHER TRANSMISSION REVIEWS, BUT THEY ARE SAME PROBLEMS I AM HAVING. GM NEEDS TO RECTIFY THIS ISSUE DUE TO THE NUMBER OF UNSATISFIED CUSTOMERS WITH A SUB PAR PRODUCT. I COULD HAVE BOUGHT ANY TRUCK I WANTED, AND I UNFORTUNATELY BOUGHT A SILVERADO WITH A TRANSMISSION THAT DOESN'T FUNCTION THE WAY A NEWER ONE SHOULD. ASIDE FROM THE MECHANICAL ISSUES IT CAUSES, IT IS EXTREMELY EMBARRASSING WITH PASSENGERS IN THE TRUCK. IT NEVER FAILS, THEY ALL SAY THE SAME EXACT THING...'WHAT WAS THAT?'...... GM STAND BEHIND YOUR PRODUCT LIKE WE STOOD BEHIND OUR HARD EARNED MONEY WHEN WE PAID YOU.

SQUEAKING NOISE UNDER BOX. DEALER TOOK 2 MONTHS TO GET A REPLACEMENT LEAF SHACKLE FOR LEFT SIDE. IT DID STOP THE NOISE. MY TRANSMISSION HAS A HARD SHIFT IN GEARS WHEN TAKING OFF AND COMING TO A STOP. TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO HANG UP SHIFTING FROM LOW GEAR T A HIGHER GEAR AND DOES THE SAME WHEN COMING TO A STOP. SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE. NEW TRUCK, NOW HAS 21,000 MILES BUT WORST INVESTMENT I HAVE MADE SWITCHING FROM A FOREIGN TRUCK BACK TO MADE IN AMERICA. THIS HARD SHIFTING TAKES PLACE WHEN STARTING OFF OR COMING TO A STOP ON ANY HIGHWAY OR STREET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. WHILE DRIVING 55-60 MPH, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE, LOST POWER, AND SPONTANEOUSLY MOVED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED; HOWEVER, THE "ICY ROAD CONDITIONS DRIVE WITH CARE" MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MAVERICK CHEVROLET (4801 E END BLVD S, MARSHALL, TX 75672, (903) 938-5111), BUT THE FAILURES COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 9-5588486485. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000.

AT APPROXIMATELY 15,000 MILES I WAS PARKED IN A YARD AND BLOCKED IN SO I BACKED UP ON A SMALL HILL AND THE TRUCK JERKED BADLY FOR ABOUT 15 FEET I THOUGHT IT WAS THE POSITIVE TRACTION TRYING TO CATCH ON THE GRASS BUT FURTHER INTO DRIVING THE TRUCK I NOTICED IT HAPPENING MORE AND MORE IN FORWARD OR REVERSE AND IN SHIFTING INTO GEARS ARE AT TIMES HARD. THE LAST INCIDENT I WAS TAKING OFF FROM A RED LIGHT TODAY AND AROUND 40 MPH IT HAD A JERK/ HARD SHIFT, MY TRUCK IS A DAILY DRIVER AND I HAVE 44,000 MILES ON IT CURRENTLY. I AM A HARDWORKING AMERICAN THAT PURCHASED THIS $40,000 TRUCK FOR DEPENDABILITY BECAUSE I DO A LOT OF DRIVING AND WOULD LOVE FOR SOME ONE TO PUT A STOP TO THIS NONSENSE THERE ARE ALREADY SO MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS 8 SPEED TRANSMISSION JERKING AND SNATCHING AT RANDOM TIME CAN YOU ALL PLEASE MAKE GM RECALL THESE AND BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE JUNK TRANSMISSIONS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXPERIENCING TRANSMISSION FAILURE. AFTER THE CONTACT WENT BACK AND FORTH WITH THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER (BILL CRAMER CHEVROLET BUICK GMC, 2251 W 23RD ST, PANAMA CITY, FL 32405, (850) 250-1403), THEY SETTLED ON TRADING THE CONTACT'S 2015 SILVERADO FOR A 2018 SILVERADO WITH THE SAME TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THE CONTACT RESEARCHED THAT CHEVROLET WAS SERVED WITH A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR THE TRANSMISSION. THE MANUFACTURER WANTED THE CONTACT TO GO THROUGH THE SAME PROCESS FOR DIAGNOSING THE 2018 MODEL AS HE DID WITH THE 2015 MODEL. THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALER AND HAVE A SENIOR ADVISOR FROM THE MANUFACTURER CALL HIM BACK. THE CONTACT WANTED TO KNOW IF HE SHOULD FILE UNDER THE LEMON LAW WITH HIS STATE'S ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 0.

BOUGHT THIS TRUCK BRAND NEW WITH 9 MILES ON IT. (PREVIOUSLY DROVE A RAM 1500). MY FIRST GM PRODUCT I'VE BOUGHT IN MY LIFE AND I'M DISGUSTED! I'M A VICTIM OF THE 'TRANSMISSION HARSH DOWNSHIFT SYNDROME'. SLOWING DOWN NORMALLY IS CLUNKY, NOTHING SMOOTH ABOUT THIS 'AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION' 6 SPEED BTW. WHEN SLOWING DOWN ABRUPTLY (IN STOP N GO TRAFFIC), TRANSMISSION SLAMS INTO GEAR WHILE DOWNSHIFTING, FEELS LIKE I'M BEING REARENDED. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP A TOTAL OF 6 TIMES, THEY SAY 'OPERATING AS DESIGNED'....YEA RIGHT. MY RAM NEVER DID THIS...TALKED TO CORPORATE ON 2 SEPARATE OCCASIONS... 'THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO' IS WHAT THEY TELL ME. POOR DESIGN, HATE THE TRUCK, DISGUSTED WITH GM. I'M NOW MAKING DOUBLE PAYMENTS TO GET OUT FROM UNDER IT (BECAUSE I'M UPSIDE DOWN FROM BUYING BRAND NEW AND GM THINKS SO MUCH OF THEIR PRODUCT TO CHARGE AN ARM AND A LEG AND MY FIRST BORN) TO TRADE IT IN ON EITHER A FOREIGN CAR OR BACK TO RAM. GM DOESN'T CARE, RICH BILLIONAIRES CRAPPING ON THE MIDDLE CLASS, TOO MANY 'PENCIL PUSHERS' CREATING 'NEW DESIGNS' TO BE FUEL EFFICIENT AND IMPRESS THEIR BOSSES TO MAKE THEIR BONUS. NEWS FLASH....WE BUY TRUCKS NOT BE FUEL EFFICIENT, BUT TO BE MANLY AND HAUL THINGS AND GO OFF ROAD AND CARY A FEW PASSENGERS WHILE WE'RE AT IT!! SAVE YOURSELF THE HASSLE AND DONT BUY A GM PRODUCT.

THIS TRUCKS TRANSMISSION SHIFTS WHENEVER IT WANTS TO... I WAS DRIVING 45MPH AND COASTING TO A RED LIGHT WHEN IT DOWNSHIFTS HARD BUT WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN AGAIN AND I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR I HAD NO TORQUE, LIKE I WAS IN 5TH GEAR AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN 2ND. I PRESSED A BIT HARDER AND IT DOWNSHIFTED HARD AGAIN AND WAS AT 5K RPMS! I THOUGHT IT HAD AN 8 SPEED TRANSMISSION, BUT IT SURE DOESNT SEEM LIKE IT. MY TRUCK WAS NEW AND ONLY HAS 5K MILES ON IT. UNACCEPTABLE
