2022 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500- Wakarusa, IN
Unknown. The transmission is kicking really bad. There are recalls on other vehicles similar to ours that are having the same issue. It has been doing this for a while now. It shifts hard from 1st to 2nd gear and when coming to a complete stop it also jerks. Also at times the check engine light comes on and it will not shift at all. I am afraid this is going to cause an accident.

2026 CHEVROLET TAHOE- Lees Summit, MO
While driving down I35 South of wellington Ks in our new 2026 Chevy Tahoe we experienced a vehicle shift to neutral and no transmission correction available. Coasted to ditch saw “Service Transmission” notice and so turned off and on engine . Went to Derby Ks and Davis Moore Chevy in Wichita where staff removed the warning service notice on driver info and we continued to Molle Chevy in Blue Springs Mo. where they did diagnostic and only showed ambient air fault!! This is scary! We had no transmission and had to get off road safely! Please let public and our dealers know and recall all vehicles with this problem. We are afraid to drive this new 3,000 mile Chevy Tahoe.

2026 CHEVROLET EQUINOX EV- Oregonia, OH
I was driving and slowed down to enter a small roundabout. upon trying to enter the roundabout the cars emergency braking slammed on the brakes to a sudden hard stop. No other cars were in the roundabout, but i believe it may have seen the curb. in any case, i was extremely lucky that nobody was behind me, or coming around the roundabout, as it took a bit to get the car to let me go again.
