Truck has 67,000 miles and has been in the dealer 3 times for transmission issues. First was the shutter. Then harsh jerking downshifts. They flushed transmission and filled with new fluid under warranty and after 1,000 miles light on again for transmission fluid temperature sensor. And now they want $800 to replace this issue. There was a recall on the 16 model for the same issue with the wiring. About to cut loss and file lemon law. Had the truck for less then 2 years and put 15,000 miles on

My vehicle shakes at different speeds. Do to the admitted mistake that GM said certain assembly lines put the wrong Transmission fluid which causes corrosion to Transmission. Im paying $900 to correct the problem. They should have recalled the vehicles that was affected.

Cold start after vehicle sits for a while vehicle shark bites and stutters. When you try and drive vehicle before it-??s been warmed up significantly. It-??s a safety concern because it feels very danger and could cause an accident. Alamo At caused my truck to stall out the other day with my children in it and a large accident. Dealership is dismissed my concern and says it-??s normal gmc defects that I have to deal with. I will sue GMC if I have to.

Transmission experiencing hard shifts, especially at low speeds. Vehicle "jumps" forward with the hard shift. Took to dealer for service. Dealer indicated that GMC used the wrong transmission fluid during assembly of the vehicle. This was a known problem within GMC.

When I'm coming to a stop and the vehicle starts downshifting, the last shift feels like the tranny is going to fall out. Forceful jerk and clunking noise. It's sporadic. One week it's almost every day, one week it seems fine. The dealership said they have heard this a lot and laughed when they told me the manufacturer has told them it's normal. It's definitely not normal.

. the engine mounted mechanical vacuum pump may decrease over time decreasing the amount of vacuum/ power brake assist, causing vehicle not to stop. Same as my 2016 GMC. I had to also have the ( evap control valve replaced). Transmission surges and on the down shift its knocking coming tyo a stop..in my rear ending a parked vehicle because of the brakes pulsating and not stoping scared me..dealership..dealership.no

Transmission shifts extremely hard in low speed. transmission temperature sensor is bad causing warning light to be on. Brakes fade at low speed causing abs system to growl.

I'm having issues with my transmission/torque converter on my 2017 GMC Sierra SLT 6.2L which cause a heavy shutter and/or shake while driving. I have scheduled a follow up appointment for 11/22/21 after my vehicle was just in on 11/15/21. I currently have less than 57,000 miles on this vehicle. These issues create abnormal vibrations and shuttering under normal driving conditions which can adversely affect control of the vehicle. Furthermore, these issues affect acceleration and deceleration.

- Herrin, IL, USA

Within a couple of days after purchasing the vehicle new I noticed a vibration or shudder when the transmission shifted. Also, the truck would slam into gear almost like being hit in the back end, and on a few occasions while driving on the highway the truck would just downshift by itself thereby causing the engine RPM's to rev above 5,000. It has been to the dealer four times, transmission has been re-calibrated, the new and improved fluid flush and these problems still exist. The truck has just under 60K miles and has started downshifting on a regular basis causing the engine to rev. How long is that going to last before the engine blows or causes permanent damage?

GM has known issues, which I'm sure the NHTSA is aware of. This involves transmission in 2015-2019 model trucks, both GMC and Chevrolet, among other GM vehicles. In my research there have been no less than 13 TSB's issues by GM trying to rectify these issues. The latest TSB states that a new blend of transmission fluid is the fix. In my instance the transmission started shifting hard with less than 30K miles. Took to dealership and they reprogrammed the transmission control module. Fixed the issue for a while but then started back after about 10K miles. In Feb. 2020 with 60K miles a transmission temperature sensor failed on the transmission. I took it in to replace sensor and as a result they had to change the fluid at which time they told me they replaced it with the new recommended fluid. Now at 94K miles it has started producing the hard shuddering at certain speeds. This is the main problem the fluid change is supposed to fix. Well guess what. It does fix it. I'm now scheduled to take it back in on Monday 8-9-21 to have the torque converter replaced. The company I work for has about 12 of these model GMC trucks and 7 of them have had to go back in to fix this same issue. Some of them multiple times. I'm out of warranty and these repairs are not cheap. The biggest safety issue is the tranny could fail at any point going down the road and leave me with no drivetrain and potentially get hit. In my 40 years of driving and owning 20 vehicles between me, my wife and 3 kids I have never had a tranny fail. This is the first and GM has know about this issue for years. They need to be made to fix these issues and replace all transmission that are having issues and repay me the money I've already paid and the money I'll have to pay next week. This is ridiculous that NHTSA has not gotten involved enough to force GM to correct this. You need to force the hand of GM to make this right. You know of the problems, now get it fixed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Extreme hard shift from 1 to 2 regardless of power input. Also, sputtering after mantiaining speed (rpms jumping up and down, you can feel the power input increase or decrease). This also happens using cruise control. After researching, this is a major complaint on this vehicle.

After coming to a complete stop at traffic stop light truck's transmission made a loud "clunk" sound. When attempting to accelerate on the green light truck, initially would not move then it lerched forward but would not shift out of first gear. Pulled off main road and into a parking lot where I shifted truck into park and turned off the engine. After waiting a couple of minutes I restarted the truck, shifted into drive and pulled back onto the street, but the truck still would not shift out of first gear.
