When shifting to park and shut truck off a shift to park warning comes on dash and you can shut engine off or lock door if you try the horn starts honking. I took it to dealer they had it for 2 days said it showed no costs nor could they get it to happen so they say. It dose it almost every time you shut it off. They sent me home and the problem is the same.
Lifter went bad with no warning. Caused engine damage and need costly repairs. Truck only has 68,000 miles on it. Has had all service with manufacturers recommended synthetic oil. Truck has been babied and has hardly pulled any trailers at all. Never been off road. Very disappointed.
I have had to replace the transmission at 80k miles.the vehicle was shuddering so bad. Slipping gears and shifting very aggressively. The transmission is an 8 speed 8l90. This is unacceptable for gm to get away with this. Please do something I don-??t want this to happen again. This same exact problem is happening to so many people!
starting at about 10,000 miles I brought my vehicle in for service for a chirping noise from the left front axle area. I was told that they couldn't replicate the issue so I went for a drive with the service technician at the dealer. The noise was able to be replicated at that time and the dealer said that there is a service bulletin for that issue but they don't have a resolution for it from GM at that time. The noise is still evident and there is still no fix for it from the dealer. Not sure if this could become a safety issue further on down the road but with close to 60k miles on the vehicle now and the same noise still evident you'd think GM would have addressed it by now.

I have had issues with the transmission of my 2019 Silverado RST since about 25,000 mile. I've had the vehicle in for service of the transmission multiple times and the issue is still unresolved. The vehicle will hard shift into second gear and downshift into different gears intermittently. I've followed through with all the maintenance that is required since I've owned this vehicle at the dealer level only. They've been the ones to recommend the maintenance items due to mileage. This includes the replacement of the trans fluid as well as the rear differential fluids. This problem is only getting worse now and it seems that GM is having dealers push these problems far enough without resolution that the owner would be outside the original power train warranty of the vehicle.
The truck at times and getting more frequent will at times jerk when downshifting and at times will be so bad it feels like you were rear ended. Had an issue 2 weeks ago this happened and the service engine light and anti skid light came on the interstate on ramp. The truck would not accelerate. I had to pull over, shut truck off for a couple minutes for computer to reset. Anti skid light went off but service engine light stayed on for several more days. Called dealership and service writer said down shift problems are normal, it's a learning feature. Truck has 52000 miles should have learned by now.
The contact's fiancé owns a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. While driving 65 MPH, the vehicle independently stopped with several unknown warning lights illuminated. The transmission resumed normal operation soon after the failure before failing again. The contact later discovered that an Over-The-Air (OTA) software update was performed on the vehicle without the owner-??s knowledge. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where another software update for the brake control module was performed. The failure occurred for a second time as the contact's fiancé was driving again at 65 MPH; however, he managed to drive the vehicle home despite the repeated failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and her fiancé was offered a gift certificate for his next oil change. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 52,000.
Transmission revert to neutral revs over 4000 rpm then slams into gear and takes off then when you come to a stop it feels like another vehicle hit you from nehind
Hello, I am having issues with my 2019 Chevy Silverado's transmission. When I go to drive it, sometimes coming out of first gear I will have hard shifting. The shifting is to intense that I have to let off of the gas, so my truck and idol down. This is a big issue when I am in heavy traffic, with a rick of being hit by other cars traveling faster. I have told my dealership about this multiple times and the last time I talked with them about this. I had them flush my transmission, thinking that would help. After that was done, the service manger told me. The way my transmission is shift is standard GM operation. Sometimes I will have a warning lamp come up. The fault code is "lost communication with transmission".
On the dash display when shutting the vehicle down states "shift to park" and will not power down unless you constatntly move the vehicle backwards and forward multiple times before it powers down. This was replicated at the dealer and the shift assy was replaced under warranty in 1/21 but now 3/22 it is doing the same thing again. Dealer contacted says out of warranty contacted GM customer service case # 9-7518724528 and waiting on GM's position at this point this is a problem with many GM products per the internet and if it is not shifting to park becomes a safety issue GM has service bulletins listed on alldata but no recalls at this time
Dashboard and display screen doesn't shut off when key had been removed from the ignition. Constant freezing, call dropping and sound boost at random moments. Ticking sound when barely touching the gas. Hard shifts. Bluetooth connects and disconnects constantly. If GM released a defective vehicle, in which they are aware of the problems should be fixed. Not only for me but for the tons of thousands filing known major problems as well.
I bought the truck in Oct. of 2019 with 5000 miles on it. I have taken it to several service shops since then. I have told every one of those shops fro 2019 to present that there was something wrong with the truck. There has always been a hard clanking noise in the rear end. It always feels like it's in 4 wheel drive. It has never shifted right. When pulling a load it fells like it jumps in and out of gear. And when shifting from reverse to drive it clanks in the rear end. It feels like there is a brake dragging because when I let off the grass it will practically stop itself and it sound like a wheel cylinder is going out. Sometimes I have to push the start/stop engine button 2 to 3 times before the truck will shut off. The screen of the radio goes black sometimes. The rear tires don't turn when in 4 low. The tail gate doesn't lift like it's supposed to. The heater isn't right when you turn the defrost on it blows out at you feet. And when it remote started the heater doesn't always come on. All the reportes can be seen through the Chevrolet dealerships or OnStar. It has been taken to several different dealerships since 2019 when I bought it.
Driving on state highway and truck felt like it went into neutral. Pulled to side of road and put truck in park. Put truck in gear and nothing happened. Truck would not move from side of the road. Had truck towed to dealership and was told that the transmission was burnt out and had to be replaced. 2019 Chevy Trail Boss with 90k miles and the transmission fails. Unbelievable.
1st Time I was idling for 30+ minutes, truck was also making strange knocking noises, pulled on to a major highway and rear end locked up, cars were slamming on brakes, almost got killed. Took to shop left for 2 weeks, they said they could find no issues. I assumed they fixed problem, because there was no knocking any more. 3 weeks later, was idling for about 45minutes, pulled into traffic, dark, raining, rear en locked up. Almost got killed a second time. Took in for service and left truck. This needs to be investigated before someone gets killed!
I HAVE HAD 2 TIMES THAT THE TRANSMISSION ON MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN REPAIRED OR REPLACED. THE TRANSMISSION IS NOW NOT OPERABLE. MY TRUCK IS A 2019 CHEVROLET Silverado 1500 CREW CAB. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME WITH THIS TRANSMISSION. I NEED THIS PROBLEM INVESTIGATED.
Truck has excessive shuddering accelerating or decelerating. According to the service person at the dealer it is a problem with moisture and the factory fluid that the truck came with. Diagnostics showed excessive TCC Slippage which requires and upgraded transmission fluid. The TCM was also reprogrammed with the latest calibrations. Total cost $654.30.
6L80E 6 speed transmission. Vehicle slips at low speeds, under light acceleration. Sometimes when it shifts, its very hard and jerky. If this is normal designed operation, the transmission or programming needs to be redesigned.
