Truck has 7000 miles defective valve body failure would not go into reverse and in limp went to dealership and diagnosis is needs valve body replacement with parts on back order with no eta. They said it could be 3-5 months. This is a national issue I’m on multiple social media sites for Chevy trail boss and there is too many to count and it’s been happening since 2021. GM has been no help no loaners and you have to pay for a rental for 3-5 months and pay your truck payments and hopes you are reimbursed at the end. They just recalled the 2021-2022 same 10spd transmissions they are selling Trucks knowing these issues exist also the lifter issues with total engine failures at 10000 miles. The transmission lock up at high speeds.

While driving going 40 mph a ‘Brake System Failure’ warning came on and brakes stopped working. Thankfully there were no cars ahead allowing me to continue until the car came to a stop. At that point I engaged the emergency brake and put the car in park and out of gear. I then had the truck towed to a Chevy dealership. I still do not have a response to what the issue is.

Had a check engine code and the dealership diagnosed the problem as being the coolant control valve. However being still under warranty they said that part is no longer covered under powertrain warranty as of Feb 1st. They now want me to pay 4400 for a part that fails often. Is there anything I can do?
