My 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 experienced significant transmission problems that began as rough, inconsistent shifting, hesitation, and abnormal transmission behavior before eventually progressing to complete transmission failure. These symptoms were present before the transmission's ultimate failure and while the vehicle was still within its warranty period. Unfortunately, during the COVID-19 pandemic, local dealership service departments faced significant staffing shortages and appointment backlogs, making timely diagnosis and repair extremely difficult. By the time the transmission failed completely, the vehicle had exceeded the warranty's 84-month time limitation but remained substantially below its mileage limitation. Despite the relatively low mileage, the earlier symptoms, and the extraordinary circumstances affecting service availability, General Motors declined to provide warranty or goodwill assistance. I was forced to bear the substantial financial burden of a major transmission failure in a vehicle that had not reached the mileage threshold established under its warranty. I believe this failure warrants investigation because transmission problems involving GM trucks and SUVs from this period have been widely reported by other owners. I am particularly concerned about whether GM was aware of recurring transmission defects, whether affected owners received adequate notification, and whether these failures present a potential safety risk through unexpected loss of propulsion, hesitation, or unpredictable shifting. I request that NHTSA review this complaint alongside similar reports involving 2018 GMC Sierra transmissions to determine whether a recurring defect exists and whether further investigation or corrective action is warranted.

I was backing out of my garage and truck made strange noise and shut off . Tried to restart but just made ding and wouldn't turn over . Dash lights went blank. Had vehicle towed to shop and mechanic stated it was crank and connecting rods after he dropped the oil pan. I ordered new OEM engine and waiting on delivery . Been 5 weeks now since order . Vehicle only has 106,000 miles on it and have had it since 20,000 miles and all maintenance has always been done . Engine can be inspected at shop as new engine has not arrived

Vehicle purchased Certified Pre-Owned in October of 2021 with roughly 43,000 miles. During the first service (47,598 miles) at a GM dealer I reported very hard shifts, but this issue was ignored during service. At the next servce (54,571 miles) I again reported the hard shifts and "surging" when coming to a stop but the dealer reported they were unable to replicate the issue and did not address it. At the next service (61,620 miles) I reported the issues with the transmission once again and this time they performed a transmission fluid flush/replacement, acknowledging the issue and asking me to drive for 200 miles and return if the issue was not fixed. I returned at 62,058 miles as the issue was not resolved and they replaced the torque converter. During my next visit (68,709 miles) I reported the issue was still present but was informed they would not address it as I was now outside of warranty. I reported this to GM but was told to pay for a diagnostic and repair and "hope" that the dealer would elect to cover it.
