2015 Chevrolet Silverado

HAD BEEN COMPLAINING SINCE 2 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE THAT TRANSMISSION WAS SHAKING/SHIMMYING/SPUTTERING. WAS PULLING ONTO A COUNTY HIGHWAY OFF OF A RESIDENTIAL TYPE ROAD (AFTER PICKING UP GRANDDAUGHTER FROM SCHOOL - SHE WAS IN TRUCK) AND TRUCK BOGGED DOWN & WOULDN'T GO. INTERSECTION IS AT TOP OF HILL AND AROUND A CORNER. WAS CLEAR WHEN I STARTED PULLING OUT, BUT WAS ALMOST HIT BY ONCOMING TRUCK BEFORE I GOT MY TRUCK TO GET ON ACROSS THE INTERSECTION. HAS BEEN IN SHOP TWICE TO FIX IT. FIRST TIME TO DOUBLE TRANSMISSION FLUSH. THAT DIDN'T WORK. NEXT TIME A FEW WEEKS LATER, A TECHNICIAN HOOKED UP A COMPUTER TO MY TRUCK SO HE COULD MANUALLY SHIFT GEARS WHILE RIDING WITH ME. HE FELT THE ISSUES AND SAID HE SAW SEVERAL PROBLEMS. DEALERSHIP ENDED UP REPLACING TORQUE CONVERTER. ALSO REPLACED VLOM MANIFOLD - WHATEVER THAT IS? THAT'S WHAT IT SAYS ON WORK ORDER. THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. I BELIEVE THERE ARE BULLETINS OUT ON THIS TRUCK'S TRANSMISSION ALREADY. I HAVE TALKED TO OTHERS WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM.

I HAVE A 2015 CHEVY SILVERADO 1500 4X4 WITH 5000 MILES. WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ( LESS THEN 2 MILES) MY SERVICE 4WD SYSTEM WARNING CAME UP. THE TRUCK IS STUCK IN 4WD CAN NOT SWITCH IT OUT. ALSO WHILE STUCK IN 4WD TURNING IS VERY DIFFICULT. CALLED DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE IT IN. WHILE ON MY WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP STILL STUCK IN 4WD MY CHECK ENGINE AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS CAME ON. THE TRUCK STARTED TO SHACK AND SHIFTING AT RANDOM AND THE RPM WERE ALL OVER UP AND DOWN. I GOT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND CHECKED IN THEY TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE WHILE I WAITED. AFTER WAITING 4 HOURS THEY TELL ME THE ENGINE HAS ISSUES THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT OR WHY AND THAT IT WILL BE A FEW DAYS BEFORE THEY WILL KNOW ANYTHING. SO THAT WAITING GAME BEGINS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE WAS ACTIVATED AND THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE LOCKED UP. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNDETERMINED. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE COMPUTER SYSTEM HAD TO BE REPROGRAMMED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,214.

OCTOBER 31, 2014 ON MY HOME FROM WORK I HEARD A BANG. THE TRUCK PULLED VERY HARD TO THE LEFT TAKING ME INTO THE CONCRETE BARRIER THAT DIVIDES THE HIGHWAY. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION US HIGHWAY 41/45 65 MPH. AFTER THE TRUCK WAS INVESTIGATED AT THE DEALER TO GIVE AN ESTIMATE ON THE DAMAGE IT WAS DISCOVERED THE LEFT REAR AXEL WAS BROKEN. QUESTIONING THE DEALER ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND NOT GETTING ANYWHERE I TALKED TO DIFFERENT MECHANICS THAT I KNOW AFTER A WEEK OR SO IT WAS DISCOVERED THERE WAS A RECAL FOR INSUFFCIENT HEAT TREATED REAR AXLES TALKING TO THE DEALER AND I WAS TOLD THIS DID NOT PERTAIN TO MY VEHICLE AS THE RECALL WAS TAKEN CARE OF AT THE FACTORY. I CANTACTED CHEVROLET AND WAS TOLD THAT BECAUSE I HAD GIVEN THE OK FOR THE DEALER TO MAKE THE REPAIRS. MY INSURANCE COMPANY WOULD NEED TO FOLE PAPER WORK AGAINST CHEVROLET WHICH MYSELF I BELIEVE IS WRONG . I WAS ALSO TOLD BY THE DEALER BROKEN AXLE WAS TYPICAL OF THIS KIND OF IMPACT. THERE IS NO DAMAGE ON THE SIDE PANEL OR REAR OF THE TRUCK I DO HAVE PICTURES ON MY PHONE WHICH I HAVE NOT DOWNLOADED TO MY COMPUTER.

TAKATA RECALL I WAS TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 75 MPH WHEN I WAS ACCELERATING OVER AN OVERPASS THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO VIBRATE WITH AN ASSOCIATED HUMMING NOISE AND AFTER ABOUT TWO SECONDS AFTER THEACH VIBRATION STARTED A VERY LOUD AND VIOLENT BANGING SOUND CAME FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE THAT WAS FELT FROM THE INSIDE. I IMMEDIATELY STEERED TO THE HIGHWAY SHOULDER, BECAUSE I COULD SEE METAL CHUNKS TUMBLING FROM BEHIND THE VEHICLE FROM MY REAR VIEW MIRROR. ONCE I WAS ON THE SHOULDER I LOOKED UNDER THE TRUCK TO SEE THE DRIVE SHAFT HAD COME APART FROM THE TRANSMISSION WITH THE U-JOINT STILL CONNECTED ON THE TRANSMISSION SIDE. THE DRIVE SHAFT WAS MANGLED ON THE TRANSMISSION SIDE, AND THE EXHAUST WAS CRUSHED WITH HOLES IN IT. THE TOOL ROAD AUTHORITY STOPPED TO RENDER AID AND KINDLY TOWED MY VEHICLE OFF THE TOOL ROAD TO THE NEAREST GAS STATION. IMAGES WERE TAKEN OF THE DAMAGE, BUT WE'RE TO BIG IN SIZE TO UPLOAD.

TRANSMISSION CANNOT FIND GEARS WHEN COASTING OR SLOWING DOWN AND THEN HITTING ACCELERATOR. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN IT HESITATES FOR SECONDS BEFORE FINDING THE RIGHT GEAR AND GOING, OR IT STAYS IN TOO HIGH OF A GEAR INSTEAD OF DOWNSHIFTING TO ACCELERATE AND RATTLES. HAPPENS EVERY TIME I DRIVE THE TRUCK, AND MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. GM DOESN'T CARE!

I PURCHASED A NEW 2015 CHEVY SILVERADO 2500HD DURAMAX CREW CAB LT FROM AUTO NATION OF PEMBROKE PINES FLORIDA AND AT ABOUT A WEEK OR TWO OF DRIVING IT I STARTED TO NOTICE A BUMP/CLUNK FROM THE REAR OF THE TRUCK JUST AS I WOULD COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. IT ALSO DOES IT JUST APON A STRONG ACCELERATION. THE VEHICLE HAD ABOUT 500 MILES ON IT WHEN I STARTED TO NOTICE THIS. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN FOR THE FIRST OIL CHANGE AT ABOUT 4K MILES AND TOLD THE SERVICE GUY WHAT WAS GOING ON. HE SAID THEY WOULD TEST DRIVE IT. WHEN I PICKED IT UP HE SAID THEY COULD FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I THINK IT'S THE SLIP YOKE STICKING AND NEEDS TO BE LUBRICATED OR REPLACED. SOME OF THE OLDER TRUCK HAD THIS ISSUE.

THIS IS THE 10TH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED, AND 3RD TIME THE VEHICLE HAS ENTERED THE SERVICE CENTER. OWN A 2015 CHEVY SILVERADO 1500 CREW CAB Z71, AND WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, IT DOES NOT TURN OVER, INDICATING THAT THERE IS A THEFT DETERRENT ISSUE. THE FIRST TIME THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE OR ERROR CODE. THE SECOND TIME SEVERAL ERROR CODES WERE PRESENT, WHICH THE DEALER RESET. THIS APPEARED TO FIX THE ISSUE, UNTIL 1 MONTH LATER THE ISSUE PRESENTED ITSELF AGAIN. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY WITH THE DEALER ON IT'S THIRD REPAIR ATTEMPT. THIS CAN BE VERY UNSAFE FOR A VEHICLE SINCE IN AN EMERGENCY NEED THE VEHICLE COULD BE INCAPABLE OF BEING DRIVEN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS SHIFTED INTO PARK, IT WOULD SHIFT OUT OF PARK INDEPENDENTLY AND ROLL APPROXIMATELY 2 TO 6 INCHES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS A NORMAL OCCURRENCE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,500. UPDATED 8/19/15*CN THE CONSUMER FILED A REPORT WITH MASSACHUSETTS' LEMON LAW. THE CONSUMER HAS INJURED HIS KNEE UPON EXITING THE VEHICLE WHILE IT WAS MOVING FORWARD BUT, THE GEAR WAS IN PARK AND NO KEY IN THE IGNITION. UPDATED 9/30/2015*JS
