I purchased a 2024 Chevrolet 2500 HD Crew Cab High Country and reported harsh shifting after 3 months 3,000 miles and told that nothing was wrong. Brought truck back in in February 2025 with 12,000 miles due to erratic shifting and loud whining noise. After 4 days in the shop they agreed that there was a problem but didn't know what the problem was. One week ago on Sunday 3/23/25 While driving the engine would rev up for acceleration but didn't speed up. Got to my son's house two miles away. I went leave 20 min. later and the transmission died completely. It would not go forward or reverse.

My trailer brake controller routinely does not allow me to adjust the brake gain. Multiple times (and on recorded video), I’ve had instances where I could not increase gain while hauling heavy loads in the trailer and this has caused me to lose my ability to stop the vehicle effectively. This has nearly cause accidents a few times while hauling on the interstate, and down my mountain road. The driver must be able to adjust trailer gain at any point while operating the vehicle. This issue has happened with multiple trailers. I’ve taken the vehicle in multiple times and had the brake controller components replaced but this issue still exists and the dealerships are unable to resolve. I was informed I have trailer issues even though this only occurs in this vehicle while towing and not other vehicles pulling the trailers. This is a major safety issue and will cause an accident if it isn’t resolved. My only option at this point is to purchase an aftermarket brake controller as my factory brake controller is unsafe. I have multiple videos of this issue and nearly had the trailer push me over my mountain from the issue. This issue has happened since I purchased the vehicle and continues to happen. There are multiple service records which show I requested the brake controller to be fixed. This isn’t a one time date or speed. I’m unable to upload videos I’ve taken on my phone but I can send them in. Reach out to [XXX] for videos. The manufacturer and service centers aren’t helping resolve this.
