I have taken the truck to the dealer twice for hard shifting and they replaced the trans fluid and flashed the computer. It seemed to fix the problem for about 6 months then it would gradually start doing the same things, slipping and hard shifting, especially when coming to a stop or slowing down. After the second time at the dealer, they told me that’s how the transmission was designed to shift. After that I have just dealt with the problem because of the trouble of getting an appointment and the time of them checking the truck out.
Now I am out of the powertrain warranty and the transmission is really bad, slipping, hard shifting and losing power. It’s also making a whining noise at 20-30 mph. No help from the dealer now because I’m out of the warranty, even though it was a preexisting problem. So now I am spending $4700 on a new transmission. Very dissatisfied that a transmission only lasted 70,000 miles. This truck has been a daily driver, never abused, and always maintained by the dealer. I see why GM changed their warranty from 100,000 mile to a 60,000. I have been a Chevy/GM guy since I was 16. I really hate to have to drive non American truck, but GM is leaving me no choice. You would expect a more reliable vehicle after spending over $50,000 on a vehicle. Hopefully I can get a few more miles out of this truck before I trade it in on a Tundra.
