while attempting to accelerate or decelerate we feel a hesitation and harsh shift. also along with the harsh shifting there is a shudder at speeds from around 50-72 miles per hour. yes it is available for inspection. it was a bit nerve racking not knowing if we should be driving or not, we bought the vehicle with 59,000 miles on it and felt some jerky shifting but didn't think anything about it because it was a chevy and that is all we drive, but now with the shudder we are concerned. we were on a road trip yesterday to help our niece move and she lives 3.5 hours away and we noticed the shudder again, ( we just had it in the shop for new tires, rims and balance thinking it was the tires and rims and alignment ) we were nervous to drive it back home, more severe shudder like driving on rumble strips and the steering wheel would even shake. no warning lamps or messages.

I have replaced my transmission about 8 months ago-??$5200 and 15k miles later the transmission shudder is back. This is a safety issue because of transmission failure in traffic. There needs to be accountability from GM to fix this ongoing problem.

After a full service of the truck in July 2022 with approximately 90,000 miles (including oil change, tire rotation, transfer case fluid exchange, front and rear differential service, coolant system flush and refill, front and rear brake pads and resurface of rotors, and transmission fluid flush and refill), the truck began jerking and stuttering (like rolling over rumble strips) in October 2022. In February 2023, the truck was taken back to dealer service department for an oil change and inspection of the jerking/stuttering issue, the service department replaced the spark plugs, inspected the wires and connectors, and performed a throttle body service with the expectation that this would fix the jerking/stuttering issue. It did not. In May 2023, the truck was diagnosed with a transmission issue by an independent service center and confirmed by the dealer service department. From the start of the issue in October 2022 until diagnosis of the transmission issue, no warning lamps or messages ever appeared. The dealer service department stated that the torque converter is bad and that it would be best to replace the full transmission. The truck is still drivable, but the dealer service department suggested that it should not be driven as the transmission could fail completely at any time. At this time, safety is of utmost concern and the truck will not be driven until fixed as we do not want to put ourselves, our passengers, other drivers, and pedestrians in an unsafe situation if the transmission fails.

My transmission had to be replaced. It has always lunged, jerked, shake and make several unnatural noises. It would clunk into gear or not go in the proper gear. Several times it would not down shift and pushed me into the intersection either at a stop sign or red light. It felt as if I was hit from behind. One day it wouldn't go forward or reverse. It started working later and I took it to a dealership. There were no warning lights on so no codes were displayed. Suggested driving it as maybe it was just a glitch. The next day it wouldn't go over 40 mph and check engine light came on. I took it back to dealership. After they saw the codes, a mechanic looked at it and said there was metal in the transmission fluid and it smelled burnt. They said it needed a new transmission. I took it to a transmission shop and they confirmed it needed replaced. I had this done and it was over $5000. Transmission shop said they do 2-3 transmissions for Silverado a week, especially 2016 and 2017.

- Flushing, MI, USA

Is available upon request. Transmission chugging, quite often. Pulsing after turning a corner trying to resume speed. Difficulty shifting when cold. Noticed this happening occasionally, but this problem is definitely getting worse, happening daily. I only have 27,000 miles on this truck. I stopped by the dealership and was told to change the transmission fluid myself since the warranty was up. Very disappointed.

- Bay City, MI, USA

Transmission failure resulting in loss of power. Was not able to accelerate up a interstate incline. With no area to pull over and heavy traffic it almost caused an accident. I restarted the truck and was able to put it in manual mode to 4th gear and made it off the intertstate. I did not notify any individuals and called a friend with a trailer to pick up the vehicle.

- Pooler, GA, USA

Major transmission shudder at 65-80 mph, creating control issues. Hard downshifting causing a vehicle push, hard to stop. Problem not confirmed by dealer, I'm out of warranty. No warning lamps or messages. 50,000 miles

- Rockport, TX, USA

The transmission in my truck has been giving me problems off and on since I purchased it a few years back. I have told the dealer about it and they said they could not find a problem and that's because it is very sporadic when it happens. What is happening is it shifts really hard like it's not in gear when you hit the gas and then it just takes off, it is to the point where now it Jenks really hard when shifting and it also has been downshifting for no reason. There are no warnings alarms or messages displayed and yes it can be inspected but the couple times I asked them being Sterling Buick GMC they tell me the techs can not duplicate the issue and that's because it does not happen all the time. Thank you

- North Port, FL, USA

Transmission failed on vehicle with less than 27,000 miles. Required total overhaul costing over 4,000 $. No prior symptoms, no check engine light upon failure. This on top of over 5,000 $ of engine overhaul due to lifter failure last year. These are both known, prominent defects of this family of vehicles I unfortunately own.

- Copperas Cove, TX, USA

I started having a shift issue and feeling vibrations around 25-30000 miles. Was told it was my tires. They were a little wore, so replace them and again the issues were still there. I brought it back to dealer and they said the transfer case was bad. Replaced by dealer. Same issues, returned to dealer. They made some adjustments and tried to send me away. After an aliment they did, it was said truck was fine. Another heavy clunk and hard shift around 68000 miles, back to dealer, asked to have transmission inspected, told the fuild was fine no issues. Was told that's just how this truck handles. Wrong. Something is wrong. I was sent away again. Now close to 97000 miles have have a P0741code and told the transmission is bad and needs replaced. The vehicle is never been in an accident, has only had minor weight in the bed. Never towed anything with the truck, northern transmission is faulty and causing driving problems.
