2017 Chevrolet Silverado

IN JUNE OF 2017, I BOUGHT A NEW CHEVROLET SILVERADO. IT RUNS GREAT NO PROBLEMS. IN NOVEMBER 2017 I CALLED TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE OIL CHANGED. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD ME THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON THE CHUGGLE DRIVE QUALITY. THE SERVICE DID WHAT WAS NEEDED TO BE DONE. I HAD TO MAKE A 5-HOUR TRIP UP NORTH WHEN I NOTICED THAT MY TRUCK WASN'T RUNNING LIKE IT WAS BEFORE THE RECALL WAS DONE. I NOTICED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS SHIFTING HARD. WHEN THE CYLINDER DEACTIVATION WENT TO 4 CYLINDERS THE ENGINE LUGS. BEFORE THE RECALL WAS DONE I COULDN'T TELL WHEN THE CYLINDER ACTIVATION WAS SWITCHING TO 4 CYLINDERS BACK TO 8 CYLINDERS IT RAN VERY SMOOTHLY NO LUGGING OF THE ENGINE. WHAT CONCERNS ME NOW IS WHEN I WAS DRIVING AN WENT TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AT SLOW SPEED THE TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTED HARD WHERE THE BACK WHEELS LOCKED UP. WENT THROUGH A DRIVE THROUGH AFTER I PLACED THE ORDER PROCEEDED TO THE WINDOW MY TRUCK LUNGED FORWARD FROM FIRST GEAR TO SECOND GEAR. I AM GLAD THAT NO ONE WAS IN FRONT OF ME. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES. WAS TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG NO CODES CAME UP. EVEN CALLED GM GOT NOWHERE WITH THEM. THE CHUGGLE DRIVE IS A REPROGRAMMING OF THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE. GM TRYING TO FIX ONE PROBLEM CREATED ANOTHER PROBLEM. I PULL A 5000-POUND CAMPER WITH THIS TRUCK WITH THE ISSUES I AM HAVING NOW WITH THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTING HARD AND ENGINE LUGGING I AM AFRAID IT MIGHT CAUSE ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT. MY TRUCK RAN PERFECTLY BEFORE THE CHUGGLE DRIVE QUALITY RECALL WAS DONE. THE RECALL HAS TO BE THE PROBLEM. IT'S NOT A GOOD FIX.

JUST BOUGHT A NEW 2017 BLACK EDITION. REG CAB SHORT BED. 5.3. SHAKES FROM NEW OVER 73+ MPH. TOOK IT TO DEALER AT 648 MILES ON 01/19/2018. PURCHASED NEW 12/28/2017. THEY REBALANCED ALL 4 WHEELS. STILL SHAKES. THEY PUT A NEW DRIVESHAFT IN AND SAID IT WAS FIXED. I PICKED IT UP TODAY. NOPE. IT'S WORSE. NOW IT BEGINS SHAKE NO AT 60 AND AT 74-75 HAS A PRETTY DRAMATIC SHAKE. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. NOW I GO BACK AGAIN MONDAY TO LET THEM HAVE ANOTHER GO AT IT.THIS IS A BRAND NEW TRUCK.

NOTICED AFTER PURCHASE THAT THERE IS VIBRATION LIKE A BAD TIRE 35-42 MPH. VIBRATION FELT IN SEAT,CONSOLE AND STEERING WHEEL 58-65 MPH. TRANSMISSION DOWN SHIFTS HARD SOMETIMES FEELS LIKE BEING BUMPED FROM BEHIND,IT ALSO HESITATES AND JERKS AFTER LETTING OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND ACCELERATING AGAIN BETWEEN 25-45 MPH. WHEN ACCELERATING IT SURGES,JERKS AND STUMBLES. SOMETIMES WHEN ACCELERATING THE TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTS AND HANGS IN THAT GEAR UNTIL YOU LET OFF THE ACCELERATOR. UNDER HEAVY ACCELERATION THERE IS VIBRATION IN THE POWER TRAIN AND THE TRANSMISSION SEEM NOISY. AT 25 MPH IT SHUTTERS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS IN TO HIGH OF A GEAR UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION. RETURNED TO WALDORF CHEVROLET WHERE I PURCHASED IT AND WAS TOLD THEY BALANCED 2 TIRES AND RESET THE ROAD FORCE,SCANNED TRANSMISSION NO CODES TRANSMISSION OK AFTER SHOP FOREMAN ROAD TESTED FOR 21 MILES NO OTHER REPAIRS NEEDED. PICKED IT UP DRIVING HOME NOTICED ALL THE PROBLEMS WERE STILL THERE AND AFTER INSPECTION OF MY WHEELS NOTICED THAT THE WHEELS WERE BALANCED STILL HAD THE OLD WEIGHTS STILL ON THE WHEELS WITH NEW WEIGHTS ALSO. MADE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT THIS TIME TO HAVE SHOP FOREMAN (RICK) RIDE WITH ME TO SHOW HIM WHAT IT WAS DOING WHICH WE DID AND LEFT MY TRUCK AGAIN. AFTER 8 DAYS I AM TOLD IT WAS READY I WAS TOLD THEY DID A PICO SCOPE TEST AND THE DRIVESHAFT WAS BEING REPLACED THEN ONLY TESTED IT WAS OK. CHECKED RUN OUT ON FLANGES ALL WITHIN SPECS. FOUND THE RIGHT REAR TIRE BAD. THEY PUT STEEL WHEEL FROM ANOTHER TRUCK ON AND ROAD TESTED WITH NO CHANGE. THEY DROVE ANOTHER TRUCK AND IT RIDES THE SAME. EVEN HAS THE SHUTTERS ON HARD ACCELERATION. SAID THEY CALLED GM TAC BACK AND THEY DON'T SEE A PROBLEM WITH THIS. WRITTEN DOCUMENTS BE SENT VIA MAIL. MADE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT

WHILE UTILIZING THE HIGH BEAM FUNCTION OF THE PROJECTION LIGHTING SHAKE OR RATTLE WHEN TRAVELING OVER BUMPS ON THE ROAD CAUSING A FLICKERING AFFECT OF THE LIGHTS. I HAVE HAD THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY REPLACED AND THE DEFECT IS STILL PRESENT. I HAVE DRIVEN TWO 2017 AND ONE 2018 SILVERADO PICKUPS AND THE DEFECT WAS ALSO PRESENT. THIS DEFECT IS VERY DISTRACTING DURING NIGHTTIME DRIVING AND POSES A SAFETY RISK DURING NORMAL VEHICLE OPERATIONS.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO URKA AUTO SALES IN LUDINGTON, MICHIGAN WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT RODENTS HAD EATEN THROUGH THE WIRING HARNESS, A MAIN GROUND WIRE, AND THE FRONT WHEEL SPEED SENSORS. THE DEALER REPAIRED THE VEHICLE BY REPLACING THE FRONT WHEEL SPEED SENSORS, TWO WIRING HARNESSES, AND A MAIN GROUND WIRE UNDER THE HOOD. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 19,822.

THE CONTACT NOTICED A CHEMICAL ODOR IN THE VEHICLE AND A FOG-LIKE SUBSTANCE IN THE CABIN AFTER THE CRASH. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE DRIVEN FROM THE SCENE. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE NECK, SHOULDER, AND ARM, WHICH DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. A DEALER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE CRASH. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR 2 YEARS. THE DEALER WANTS $100.00 JUST TO LOOK AT IT. I DONT HAVE FUNDS SO I HAVE BEEN CHECKING FOR THE RECALL TO BE SURE. I WAS SENT A NOTICE FROM TK HOLDINGS INC. AND HAVE FILLED OUT A CLAIM BUT STILL DONT KNOW IF I QUALIFY. IT SHOWED ON ONE WEBSITE THAT THERE IS A RECALL SO I WOULD RATHER BE SAFE THAN SORRY NOT TO GO THE FULL ROUTE AND BE SURE MY TRUCK'S AIRBAG IS SAFE.
