2004 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. AT ABOUT 20,000 MILES THE TRUCK STARTED TO HESITATE WHENEVER I WOULD TAKE OFF FROM A RED LIGHT, IT WOULD DO THIS ABOUT ONCE A MONTH OR SO. AT 30,000 MILES OR SO, IT WOULD KIND OF JUMP INTO GEAR WHEN FIRST TAKING OFF OR JUMP INTO REVERSE. DEALER WOULD SAY THEY TEST DRIVE AT EACH OIL CHANGE BUT COULD NOT FIND NOTHING, I WAS SURE THEY WOULDN'T BECAUSE IT DIDN'T HAPPEN EVERY TIME. NOW IT'S OCCURRING EVERY OTHER WEEK OR SO. FINALLY AT 76,000 MILES IT WOULDN'T GET PASS SECOND GEAR, DEALER FINALLY FOUND A PROBLEM AND NOW IT'S $2800 TO REPLACE PARTS. NO HEAVY CITY DRIVING, I ONLY LIVE 5 MINUTES FROM WORK. I PUT THE TRUCK ON THE HIGHWAY ONCE A MONTH TO TRAVEL ABOUT 300 MILES ROUND TRIP. THE ONLY TIME THE DEALER WROTE ANYTHING DOWN, I DISCOVERED, WAS AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. I TALKED WITH ANOTHER 2007 SILVERADO OWNER AND THEY HAVE 17,000 MILES AND THE TRANSMISSION IS JUMPING INTO GEAR. *TR

HESITATION ON ACCELERATION. WHILE MERGING ONTO AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR TO RAPIDLY INCREASE SPEED BUT THE VEHICLE HESITATED CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO CONTINUE DOWN THE SHOULDER AND ACTUALLY STOP TO AVOID A STALLED VEHICLE ON THE SHOULDER. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS TO INVESTIGATE THE HESITATION ON ACCELERATION BOTH HAVE STATED THAT THIS IS NORMAL OPERATION FOR THE 2007 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. ALTHOUGH I DIDN'T HAVE AN ACCIDENT WITH THIS PARTICULAR INCIDENT I HAVE NOTICED THIS HESITATION DURING NORMAL DAY TO DAY DRIVING. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
