Transmission experiences a shudder that cycles every 3 seconds. The torque converter had been replaced but after 45000 miles it has returned. Dealer has recommended a new type of transmission fluid replacement. Also had a afm lifter that collapsed and was replaced.

Was driving on freeway, was changing lanes so I stepped on the gas to switch lanes and then check engine started flashing and stabilitrak active light came on. Slowed down and felt the truck with some unusual shaking, when I got off the freeway and into the street as soon as I stopped it felt like the engine wanted to shut off but it did not, truck was shaking at every stop I made. Check engine light is still on and stabilitrak active light
Engine power reduced error pops up and and basically kills any ability to accelerate. This has happened multiple times including twice at interstate speed and few times under 45mph. If this were to happen while crossing an intersection, railroad, etc., the vehicle would be a sitting duck.

Air condition coil leak which is a common problem but no recall on Silverado, but on Tahoe. This is the same part and same issue, so why is there not a recall on the Silverado? I would like credit for the $1300 replacement cost I paid.
While slowing down to make a turn, usually always using turn signal, my truck will completely shut down in the middle of the intersection with no warning. The engine shuts down and all electrical is lost. Luckily I haven't been hit by another vehicle while trying to restart my truck in the middle of the intersection had to jump out car so I wasn't in side if hit finally cars stop honking I jumped back in and started up again I was scared had my children with
Fuel injectors causing cylinder misfire - this issue can be very hazardous to the safety of driver and others. First noticed on highway going straight. Then again next morning, vehicle would not start. The date occurred is not exact, but close.
The engine has a ticking noise like a lifter out of adjustment. I'm told this is normal its a ticking fuel pump for the fuel injectors. I think GM is better than that and can figure out how to quite it down. If there engineers can't figure it GM should consider finding some that can! the next time I buy a GM product it will need to be quite if not I'll brake a family tradition for 80 years and buy another brand.
While parked over night in the garage the sabilitrak light was on and service trailer system. Truck wouldn't start so I jump stared he truck. That worked twice though out the day and on my last drive while I was reversing the steering wheel was pulled from my hand and the 'stabilitrak' light came on! finally while parked before my truck engine wouldn't turn over the 'stabilitrak' light came on again and 'service trailer system' I've never used my trailer system. My truck wouldn't even turn over 'crank'. I had to tow my truck home and I'm just happy that the steering wheel wasn't pulled from my hand with my two kids with me in the road!

Takata recall-I was in a wreck 12-24-2017 and I was hit from behind. The bed of my truck was hit so hard by a distracted driver while I was at a stop light, that it twisted up and hit the cab of the truck. My airbags never deployed and my seatbelt never locked up. I am severely injured and am still seeking treatment for my injuries. It was over $11,000 in damages. The truck now down shifts and it sounds likie the bottom is dropping out. It also shakes when at highway speed.
Coolant level drops in reservoir. Strong smell of coolant coming from engine compartment. Periodically a white cloud emits from under hood outwards from front of vehicle. Service center has preformed pressure test, dye test with no findings. Orange discoloration on hood liner above reservoir cap. Have replaced cap. Still coolant level dropping. (not severe but slight)
Transmission problems. When reversing up a driveway the truck will stall as the gas is pressed it will rev up but not go anywhere, then jump into reverse as if the petal was floored. Also some times when entering the highway the transmission doesn't shift into the correct gears also jumping into gear which could cause accidents.
So due to known issues with the yolk on the differential, the lag in the transmission shift and engine communication leads to extreme vibration at highway speeds and clunking and jerking while driving around town. So when the transmission shifts there is a delay in the motor recognizing it so it revs up some so when the transmission finally finds the gear it causes it to kick. And since the yolk has play in it, it causes the differential to clunk as the rotation of the driveshaft catches up at a quicker rate. Which leads to more looseness in the yoke and creates a wobble in the driveshaft. And an unsettling sound while driving around.
The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. While driving at low speeds and making a left turn, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was towed to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the electrical harness was faulty and needed replacement. The vehicle was repaired. Approximately one month later, the check engine warning indicator illuminated and the vehicle was taken back to the dealer. The diagnosis and repairs were unknown. The failure recurred the next month and the vehicle was taken back to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a fuel sensor failure. The vehicle was not repaired again. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 15,000.
