SERVICE BRAKES
THIS COMPLAINT DEALS WITH THE BRAKE RECALL COMING FROM GM. I DID TAKE THE TRUCK TO HAVE THE BRAKE SYSTEM REPROGRAMMED. I HAD NO ISSUES UNTIL AFTER THE REPROGRAMMING OF THE SYSTEM. WHILE IN PARKING LOT GOING LESS THAN 5 MPH. I PULLED INTO A PARKING SPOT PLACED THE TRUCK INTO REVERSE TO STRAIGHTEN OUT AND DURING THE PROCESS OF PULLING BACK INTO THE PARKING SPACE STRAIGHT. WHEN I WENT TO DEPRESS THE PEDAL IT WAS VERY STIFF, IT ACTUALLY SEEMED AS IF THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS PUSHING BACK AT MY FOOT AND THE TRUCK DID NOT STOP WHEN IT WAS EXPECTED TO. LUCKILY, THERE WAS NO CAR IN THE SPACE IN FRONT OF ME ALLOWING FOR THE TRUCK TO COME TO A STOP WITH NO ACCIDENTS OR INCIDENTS. THIS AT OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY 73,500 MILES. I DID NOTIFY THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT THIS AND THEY ARE REPLACING THE VACUUM BRAKE PUMP FREE OF CHARGE. HOWEVER, IF CIRCUMSTANCES WERE DIFFERENT THIS ISSUE MAY HAVE RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT.

POWER TRAIN, STEERING
THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATES AT AROUND 65 MPH. IT FEELS LIKE YOU ARE ROLLING OVER RUMBLE STRIPS. THE DEALERSHIP BALANCED THE TIRES, BUT THE VIBRATION CONTINUES. RESEARCHING THE ISSUE INDICATES IT MAY BE A PROBLEM WITH THE TORQUE CONVERTER.

I PICKED MY TRUCK UP FROM THE LOCAL DEALER AFTER HAVING RECALL N192268490 REPAIRED. THE HARD PEDAL ISSUE IS NOW WORSE THAN BEFORE. THE FIRST TIME YOU PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL IT FEELS OK BUT THE SECOND TIME IT HAS LITTLE TO NO POWER ASSIST AND DON'T TRY FOR A THIRD. BY THE THIRD TRY THE PEDAL IS ROCK SOLID AND YOU END UP BACKING INTO YOUR TRACTOR UNDER THE SHELTER. SO IT'S BACK TO THE DEALER IN THE MORNING

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I'VE NOTICED SINCE THE FIRST MONTH OF OWNER SHIP BACK IN 2018, THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH MY TRANSMISSION. I OWN A 2017 CHEVY SILVERADO WITH THE 8 SPEED TRANSMISSION. NOT ONLY HAD IT BEEN DISCOURAGING, IT'S DISTURBING, AND POSSIBLY EVEN UNSAFE. FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR THERE IS A HARD SHIFT IN THE TRANSMISSION. AND THE SAME PROBLEM IS FROM 2ND TO 1ST GEAR. THE VEHICLE MAKES A LOUD CLUNK AND IT JERKS SIMULTANEOUSLY. THE FACT I SPENT $50,000 ON THIS TRUCK BRAND NEW AND HAVE GOT NOWHERE WITH THE PROBLEM IS OUTRAGEOUS. I ALWAYS BELIEVE IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN, BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WILL MOVE IT RADICALLY. WHEN I BROUGHT IT TO MY DEALERSHIP THEY SAID IT WAS 'LEFT IN 4 WHEEL DRIVE' RIDICULOUS LIES. AND IF THAT WAS THE CASE WHY DID THEY 'UPDATE THE TRANSMISSION COMPUTER.' REGARDLESS, ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS FROM GM HAVE BEEN SWEPT UNDER THE RUG. THE PROBLEM HAS NEVER STOPPED. I'VE GOTTEN REPLIES FROM SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES AT THE DEALERSHIP SAYING 'THEY ALL DO THAT' OR 'IT'S FINE' SO TIRED OF GETTING NOWHERE. GM SHOULD BE REPLACING EVERY SINGLE 8 SPEED TRANSMISSION. I AM WORRIED THAT MY TRANSMISSION WILL FAIL AT ANY TIME. NEW VEHICLES SHOULD NOT DRIVE LIKE THIS.

TRANSMISSION IS CONSTANTLY JERKING AND HARD SHIFTING. IT ALSO LAGS WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. TRIED TO GET IT LOOKED AT UNDER WARRANTY AND WAS TOLD "WELCOME TO THE FUTURE" BY THE DEALERSHIP. THEY WOULDN'T EVEN DRIVE OR LOOK AT IT. FEELS LIKE I'VE BEEN RIPPED OFF, WHY EVEN OFFER WARRANTIES?
