2016 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

MY VEHICLE HAS THE 6.2L V8 AND THE 8 SPEED TRANSMISSION! THE TRANSMISSION WAS SERVICED FOR SHUTTERING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, HOWEVER STILL CONTINUES TO SHIFT VERY HARD GOING UP IN GEARS BUT MORE SO WHEN DOWN SHIFTING. IT SEEMS AS IF IT DOESN'T KNOW WHICH GEAR TO GO IN. IT LURCHES FORWARD AT TIMES WHEN COMING TO A STOP AS WELL! THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THIS NORMAL FOR THAT TRANSMISSION HOWEVER I DISAGREE! MY VEHICLE HAS 55000 MILES ON IT!

THIS TRUCK SHAKES HORRIBLY OVER 70 MPH. AFTER LOOKING FOR SOLUTIONS AND SEEING HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON THE SAME ISSUE I HAVE NOWHERE TO TURN AND NO HOPE THAT A DEALERSHIP WILL BE ABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR FIX THIS ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE RATTLED AND VIBRATED ABNORMALLY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO WEBB CHEVY PLAINFIELD (16140 S LINCOLN HWY, PLAINFIELD, IL 60586, (815)261-0118) TO HAVE THE VEHICLE ROAD TESTED. THE MECHANIC ROAD TESTED THE VEHICLE HOWEVER, A FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MECHANIC ALSO INSPECTED THE TIRES, TRANSMISSION, THE DRIVESHAFT, AND THE REAR AXLES, BUT FOUND NO ISSUES RELATED TO THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 750. *BF CONSUMER STATED HE IS STLL EXPERIENCING VIBRATION AND DEALER DID NOT HAVE ANY REPAIRS FOR THIS CONDITION.*JB

WARNING ALARM GOES OFF AND POWER STEERING GOES OUT HAPPENS WITH VECHILE IN MOTION

MY TRUCK WAS SHAKING AND SHUDDERING, ALONG WITH HARD UPSHIFT AND DOWNSHIFT WHILE DRIVING. IT STARTED TO MAKE A LOUD NOISE WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP AND WOULD SPUTTER WHEN ON THE HIGHWAY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY DIAGNOSED THE TRUCK WOULD NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION.

DIVE LINE VIBRATION, NOT FROM OUT OF BALANCE WHEELS. IT OCCURS AROUND 70 MPH AND LIVES IN AND OUT. THE SHAKE/VIBRATION IS ALWAYS PRESENT BUT GETS FLUCTUATES AT A CONTINUOUS SPEED. GOES FROM A SLIGHT FLOOR VIBRATION TO THE ENTIRE CENTER CONSOLE SHAKING WATER OUT OF ITS CUP. FEELS LIKE THE WHEELS ARE GOING TO COME OFF THE BACK. IT CAN BE SEEN THAT THE REAR END IS SHAKING LEFT TO RIGHT FROM THE DRIVERS MIRROR.

UPON LEAVING MY RESIDENCE AND HEADING TO WORK IN THE MORNING, THE TRUCK STARTED SPUTTERING AND CUTTING OUT WHILE DRIVING THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. THE ACTION IMPEDED THE TRAFFIC AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CUT ON. AFTER REVIEWING THE FAULT CODE, IT DISPLAYED A P0300 MISFIRE CODE AND P050D, COMMONLY RELATED TO FAULTY FUEL INJECTORS. THE TRUCK HAD APPROXIMATELY 34000 MILES WHEN THE ISSUE STARTED. LOCAL CHEVY DEALER ADVISED THEY ARE NOT COVERED UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY AND BUMPER TO BUMPER HAS EXPIRED. THE ISSUE IS NOW RE OCCURRING AND THE FUEL INJECTORS ARE ON BACK ORDER.

AS I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY THE TRUCK SUDDENLY SHUT OFF AND THE STEERING WHEEL JERKED HARD OUT OF MY HAND. THE SCREENS ALL WENT BLANK. I WAS HALFWAY ONTO THE ROAD WHEN THIS HAPPENED AND LUCKILY THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC WAS ABLE TO STOP IN TIME. I RESTARTED THE CAR AND IT DID IT AGAIN. IT TOOK THREE TIMES TO GET THE CAR GOING. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE DEALER TO TAKE IT IN FOR SERVICE. ON THE WAY TO THE DEALER IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND PRIOR TO THE SCREEN JUST BLACKED OUT ONLY THEN THE AC BLOWER FAN SURGED ON AND OFF. THE VEHICLE AGAIN SHUT OFF AS I WAS TURNING FROM DUAL HIGHWAY TO THE DEALER AND THE STEERING WHEEL JERKED OUT OF MY HANDS AND THE BRAKES LOCKED. ALSO WHEN I BACKED OUT THAT MORNING THE REAR FELT LIKE THEIR WAS SOME SLIPPAGE. I BOUGHT MY 2016 SILVERADO USED IN 2018 WITH 24K MILES ON IT. THE ODOMETER JUST TURNED 50K TWO DAYS AGO, SO THIS VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN HARD AND HAS ALWAYS HAD PROPER SERVICE.I BEGAN RESEARCHING AND THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF THE SAME COMPLAINT ONLINE SO I THOUGHT THERE MUST BE A RECALL. HOWEVER, THE DEALER TELLS ME THAT THERE IS ONLY A "BULLETIN" AND THAT SINCE I AM OUT OF WARRANTY I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE KNOWN REPAIRS NEEDED TO FIX THIS ISSUE THAT CLEARLY GM IS AWARE OF. REPAIRS ARE OVER 1300 DOLLARS! I CAN NOT BELIEVE THAT GM KNOWS ABOUT SUCH A DANGEROUS PROBLEM AND WILL NOT FIX IT FOR OWNERS. HOW MANY INJURIES AND DEATHS MUST OCCUR BEFORE A BULLETIN WARRANTS BECOMING A RECALL? I ALSO NOTED THAT THE PREVIOUS OWNER, RIGHT BEFORE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE ACCORDING THE THE CAR FAX TOOK THE VEHICLE FOR SERVICE DUE TO ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. SO THIS WAS KNOWN BY GM AND DEALER WHEN I BOUGHT THE TRUCK. DECEITFUL. I HAVE A FAMILY THAT RELIES ON THIS VEHICLE FOR TRANSPORTATION AND NOW I CAN'T AFFORD TO FIX IT OR TRADE IT AND IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. HELP!
