POWER TRAIN
WHILE DRIVING MY GMC SIERRA DENALI THE TRANSMISSION SHUDDERS REALLY BAD. I HAVE A 2017 WITH JUST 13,200 MILES ON IT. I WAS PULLING MY BASS BOAT AND THE SHURDDER WAS SO BAD MY DASH WAS SHAKING AND THE STEERING WHEEL WAS ALSO .I HAVE HAD THE FLUID CHANGED AT THE DEALERSHIP AND IT SHIFTED FINE AND DID NOT SHUDDER UNTIL IT REACHED AROUND 1000 MILES AFTER FLUID CHANGE AND IT IS DOING IT WORSE NOW THAN BEFORE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER CLOSE TO ME AND THEY INFORMED ME TODAY THEY WERE GOING TO DO NOTHING AND THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER I BOUGHT IT FROM! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE! I UNDERSTAND FROM ALL I HAVE BEEN READING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM GM STILL IS BUILDING AND SELLING TRUCKS WITH THE 8 SPEED TRANS IN THEM AND STILL HAVING PROBLEMS. REALLY? I GUESS I WILL KEEP DRIVING MINE AND I HOPE THE TRANSMISSION JUST COMES APART THEN THEY WILL GIVE ME ANOTHER TRANSMISSION DOING THE SAME THING! JUST GREAT GM!

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
AFTER BEING STOPPED LIKE AT A STOPLIGHT, THEN WHEN IT'S TIME TO ACCELERATE, THE TRUCK HAS A HARD JERK TO IT, AND IT DOESN'T WANT TO DOWN SHIFT. PLUS WHEN RIDING DOWN THE ROAD, THE TRUCK WILL LO JUST SUDDENLY JERK SO BAD THAT IT FEELS LIKE SOMEONE RAN INTO THE BACK OF THE TRUCK. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A LONG TIME, AND I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIX IT. I EVEN RODE WITH THEM, AND IT DID IT. THEY STILL DIDN'T WANT TO FIX IT.

THE SAME ISSUE AS GM SERVICE BULLETIN PI1513F (RADIATOR LEAK) HAS HAPPENED ON MY 2017 GMC SIERRA. THIS SERVICE BULLETIN CURRENTLY COVERS 2014 - 2016 MODELS AND NEEDS TO BE EXTENDED TO COVER 2017 MODELS (AND POSSIBLY 2018). THIS ISSUE IS A RADIATOR THAT LEAKS ON THE PASSENGER OR DRIVERS SIDE ON THE WALL BETWEEN THE COOLING FINS AND THE END OF THE RADIATOR. *TR

ABOVE 35MPH I BEGIN TO GET AN EXTREME SHAKE AND VIBRATION. IT GETS MORE AND MORE PRONOUNCED AS I DRIVE. AT 65MPH IS NEARLY UNBEARABLE, AND SHAKES AND VIBRATES VIOLENTLY. IT GIVES ME HEADACHES, AND I CAN FEEL IT IN MY ARMS AS I DRIVE. I FIRST NOTICED IT ABOUT 100 MILES AFTER BUYING THE TRUCK. IT NOW HAPPENS DAILY. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
OUR TRUCK IS LESS THAN THREE YEARS OLD WITH APPROXIMATELY 69000 MILES. THE TRANSMISSION JUST STARTED SLIPPING OUT OF THE BLUE WHILE DRIVING THRU A NEIGHBORHOOD. WHILE IN DRIVE IT WOULD MOVE BUT ONCE ACCELERATING IT WOULD REV UP AND NOT CHANGE GEARS. THIS HAPPENED WITHOUT WARNING, WITHOUT AN ENGINE OR WARNING LIGHT. WE DO ALL THE NECESSARY REGULAR MAINTENANCE. IN ADDITION TWO YEARS AGO WHILE THE TRUCK WAS A YEAR OLD, THE BRAKES WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. I GUESS IT WAS THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP OR WHATEVER THAT DIDN'T ALLOW THE BRAKE PEDDLE TO BE PRESSED WHICH PROVIDED ME WITH NO BRAKES. AGAIN WITH ABSOLUTELY NO WARNING! THIS LATER BECAME RECALL ISSUE BUT NOT BEFORE IT HAD ALREADY HAPPENED TO ME! I UNDERSTAND THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AGAINST GMC FOR TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AND I WOULD CONSIDER BEING A PART OF THIS. THIS IS A 50;000$ AND RELATIVELY NEW TRUCK, THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE! THE DEALER NOW WANTS OVER 4000$ FOR REPAIRS. *TR
