I bought a brand new 2016 Silverado in 2016 and have put 72000 (highway) miles on it. Took it in to my local Chevy dealership because of a transmission shudder and hesitating while accelerating and whine right before shifting to the next gear. Torque converter is failing sending metal shavings through my transmission and destroying it. A bill of greater than 5500 for this transmission is absurd but not as crazy as a 3 year old transmission failing on you.

Ever since I purchased my truck in early 2017, the 8 speed automatic transmission shift from 1st to 2nd gear at low speeds has been extremely hard. It changes so hard, it feels like someone struck my truck from behind, and shakes the entire vehicle. This hard shift will take place on an upshift and downshift. On the downshift, my truck will lerch forward, concerning me that I may strike another vehicle unintentionally. I have taken the vehicle to the dealership regarding the problem on at least 5 different occasions. The last occasion, the chief mechanic called me and said it is a known problem, and Chevrolet has no intention of fixing it. He explained it involved the torque converter, and Chevrolet has moved on from that transmission. He also stated that my transmission should not be damaged from the shift. One service rep. Stated to me that my warranty is good for 100,000 miles, so don't worry. How can I drive a vehicle, when passengers become frightened from the hard shift. Most recently it has started to shudder through the first few gears and is extremely bothersome to drive. The dealership has made it clear that Chevrolet has no intention on fixing the "known" problem, which is dangerous. I have service records upon request.

When truck is traveling at highway speeds (60 and above) the truck shakes violently and anything in the cup holders shakes violently. It is a very common issue from what I can tell and Chevrolet has done nothing to attempt to fix the issue. Something should be done.

I have had this hard jerking and slamming of my transmission in my truck since I purchased it brand new. It occurs when going from reverse to drive it will hesitate and not go into gear and then it slams and jerks the vehicle violently with a aloud crack noise of the gears slamming together. It also occurs when I am in between the speed of 40-50 mph. I will be driving down the road and the truck will slam into gear while driving. It also had a very high idol and shakes the truck. I have brought my truck into the Chevrolet dealership for these issue 5+ times now and contacts the GM to help get my issue solved and they just can't not fix the issue. I don't want to get stranded with my family if the transmission decided to break or cause trouble. I have had multiple occurrences of this issue happening.

Transmission has hard shifting from starting position, while driving and slowing down. 50% of the time you can hear a clunking when hard down shifting. I have had the dealer look into this over 6 times already, and on one occasion it had been "reprogrammed" and on one occasion a part had been changed. It still continues to shift hard as noted above. Odometer as of 4/5/19 is 17,093. Have service scheduled for April 8 2019 for shifting issue and motor oil change.

The transmission shutters, radles, and pings upon light acceleration. It has a delay before down shifting, it occasionally makes a loud clunk when putting into drive I dont know if the afm has part in these issues. If you drive with hard acceleration then it only pings sometimes and kind of sounds like an older 80 model V8 with a timing knock. This truck only has 28K miles on it and it had been doing it for the last 6K miles. If you manually shift the transmission it limits the issue.

I had just gotten home after visiting my parents which is approximately 100 miles (1 hour and 45 minutes) away from my house and I had no issues on the highway with my brakes. The drive was mostly all highway with an average speed limit of 65 and 75 mph. I went to park my truck at my house in which I back into my parking spot at home. When I went to stop, my truck's brakes worked properly but when I put it in reverse to back into the spot, that is when I went to go break, the brakes needed more force applied to the pedal in order to stop the vehicle. I then put my truck into drive to see if the problem was only when the vehicle was in reverse or all the time. I drove it a few feet forwards and back a few times and the problem persisted. General Motors has issued a document (pit5361D) regarding this issue but has not issued a recall. A new vacuum pump was installed by the dealer which resolved the issue but was not covered under warranty.

The first set of brake pads were GM replacement, they did not stop the truck as well as the original. So I replaced the pads with raybestos brake pads, still not satisfied with the stopping distance. Again I went with Napa ceramic pads they caused the breaks to squeal when the brakes were applied. Now my mechanic has replaced them with O relly name pads and the stopping distance is still increasing. The other problem was around 58,000 miles my truck began shifting hard and jerking. When I took it to deacon jones Chevrolet in smithfield nc, they replaced the torque converter at no charge. Now at 63,000 miles its doing the same thing. GM states even if they replaced the part the warranty only covers to 60,000. Miles. When asked about the part warranty same response 60,000 miles. Checking with several mechanics in the area and on line both incidences seems to be a reoccurring problem for people who own trucks of this period. Please check into this.

Transmission is jerky, and dealership says it's not safe to drive. Faulty transmission wiring harness and heat sensor. Truck has been at dealership for 18 days and GM has no estimate as to when the wiring harness will be available. I'm paying for a 50K truck and paying for a rental with no end in sight. Should be a recall, service tech at dealership told me the part was being 're-tooled'
