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.

I have a 2016 Silverado 1500 that having trouble with my breaks and powertrain. I try to stop the other day and the pedal got stiff and wasnt able to come to a complete almost hitting a pedestrian. Its been going on for awhile too. And my powertrain when I in the street or highway going 60mph it tends to shoot the rpms N go down and like the transmission want to shift down on its own.

I was driving and the RPM goes up and down. Its been doing it for awhile now. Ill he driving down the road and well shift gears or having trouble shifting gears. It does between going 60 to 80 mph. Sometimes I fear it might shift gears and get hit or lose control.

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'

The contact owns a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. While driving 85 mph, there was an uncontrollable vibration coming from underneath the vehicle near the transmission. On several occasions, while driving various speeds, the brake pedal was depressed and failed to slow down or stop the vehicle. The contact stated that the vehicle occasionally also pulled to the left or the right when the brake pedal was depressed. Furthermore, while driving, the vehicle stalled and shut off on four separate occasions. The contact was able to restart the vehicle after several attempts. The vehicle was taken to wommack Chevrolet (currently known as North park Chevrolet castroville, located at 1955 us-90, castroville, tx 78009, (830) 931-9200) where it was diagnosed that the brake calipers, brake pads, brake lines, and torque converter needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The contact was advised to turn off the ABS and traction control and the vehicle would perform better; however, the contact refused. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The contact was provided case number: 84425679432. The approximate failure mileage was 6,967.

Truck has vibration at 70 mph and upwards from rear of vehicle when on interstate - feels like a driveline vibration. Can be felt in the seat and not through steering wheel. Vibration at times is severe and other times minor or non-existent. Dealer keeps blaming tire/wheel balance but they are in spec (verified by third party tire dealer). Concern that vibration will cause control issues or something to break while traveling at higher speeds. This vibration has been present in the vehicle since new.

At times when slowing to a stop the vehicle jumps forward before stopping. When making slow turns, like in a parking lot, the vehicle will jump forward or lag sometime when shifting gears.

The 2016 Silverado has a programming issue for the transmission. When I drive under a load going up a hill it chugs like I have a miss fire issue. The programming is set so it stays in the highest gear for to long when driving in city conditions. It stays in 6th gear going 25-30mph and when you need the throttle. The transmission can't decide which gear to be in. On two different occasions I went to pull out of a side road onto a main road and the truck fell flat on its face like I hit a kill switch and it all most caused me to get T-boned. I hit the throttle multiple times before it decided it was going to 100% throttle and have me going out sideways onto the main road. I have taken it to the dealer and they have confirmed it to be a programming issue, but there is no fix from GM and the dealer can't do anything with it because of epa laws, but there are aftermarket tuners that address this very issue and fixes the problem and also voids warranty of the truck. It's had the issue since the 2nd week I've owned it from new. The dealer told me to keep calling GM to complain, but all GM does is send me to the dealer. Where I'm told there is nothing that can be done. It is an ongoing issue and is only a matter of time before it causes an accident or death if it hasn't all ready. I have 30 years of experience in the auto technician field and my family combined over 100 years. You know the issue is bad when a beginner driver notices the issue. If you have a local person. I'd be more than happy to take them for a ride to show them. For when this happened. It started in 2nd week of July to present. It only had around 300 miles when it started.

Transmission shudder occurred at highway speeds in September 2017. GM technicians said they could not find it. Shudder spread to all speeds - especially at low speeds going uphill. Truck would lurch forward from gear to gear and generally run with a constant vibration. In December 2017 GM technician replicated the problem and diagnosed it as a malfunctioning torque converter. I am now waiting for the new parts to see if the problem is fixed. The truck had no transmission shudder problems for the 1st 12 months I owned it.

This vehicle (2016 Silverado) has all the characteristics associated with the "Chevy shake", an unresolvable driveline under seat vibration that is very severe at times. GM has issued service bulletin pi1354C which I followed at my expense to reduce / eliminate the severe shake that occurs at speeds of 69 ' 79 mph with no improvement. I believe it is a safety matter when a vehicle shakes to the extent of driver distraction and there are dangers associated with the long term effect on safety components that are subject severe shaking that they wouldn't otherwise be subjected to under normal durability testing. I do not feel "in control" while driving the vehicle when the severe shaking occurs at 69mph. I believe that since this is an ongoing build issue with thousands of documented complaints GM should be held accountable to determine the cause and provide relief to GM truck owners.
