I have a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4x4 that will be going through it's 3rd transmission replacement. The initial transmission went out at 94k mile. Fortunately covered by warranty. The 2nd transmission went out with 79k miles on it. Also covered by warranty. Now the fun part. The 3rd transmission went out with 78k miles on it and the dealer is saying it's out of warranty with a price tag of $8k miles. This is a daily driver with no towing or off-roading done on it. I have reached out to GM for assistance in this matter. No vehicle should go through 3 transmissions in less than 5 years. All 3 transmissions went out without warning and gave a check engine code of p0700 and p0796. This is my 1st GM vehicle and quite possibly my last. I have never experienced such poor quality before. I am waiting to hear back as to what GM and the dealer are going to do to assist in this matter as this is a sign of a faulty product that should be covered by them.
