2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Transmission shuttered while driving on the freeway at 65 mph, the rpm dial indicator show high and my speed dropped to 40 mph. The transmission fluid was burnt and the torque converter was replaced

Vehicle transmission repaired at 77,000 along with a new torque converter. Torque converter and transmission both failed again at 115,000 miles. GMC currently replacing the 3rd torque converter with 130,000 miles. I have spent over $14,000 on 2 transmissions and 3 torque converters on a vehicle I've owned for 6 years.

At 144k I had to replace the passenger lifters because cylender 8 (linked to AFM) was stuck. I got that repaired. At 147k I had to get my passenger side lifters replaced again. 2 months later at about 152k I had to replace drivers side lifters. At this point 152k ive had all lifters replaced. Passenger side twice. Now at 157k my bottom end is bad. I was driving and boom no power. That could of been bad. Ive spent so god damn much money on this truck due to the AFM. Its ridiculous. Now I have to spend 8k on a new engine. Ive spent a total of 12k in repairs to this truck. There has to be something done to compensate. Because of your guyses shitty engineering im going into debt. Its insane

09/28/2024. Chevrolet 5.3 L V8 Silverado 1/2 ton pickup truck. I was driving on KS. Highway 7, N bound, the engine started shaking, eng light on and the engine quit. I costed to the side of the road. Number 7 cylinder dropped a valve and more damage. Mileage on vehicle 53,198. This truck had top care, as it still has. Cost to me at Hendrick Chevrolet $7,092.89. This has happened to many people with no help from GM. ITS A SHAME. GM KNEW THIS. Date of incident 09.28.2024

Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. It was discovered that there was a mileage discrepancy. The vehicle was a dealer sale. The contact stated that the mileage on the title was discovered to be 214,850. At the time of purchase, the mileage was 139,131. The Carfax report mileage was not obtained.

While driving at highway cruising speeds, the vehicle began showing abnormal RPM fluctuation/surging at steady speed. The RPM would repeatedly move up and down even while maintaining a constant speed, including when cruise control was used. There were no warning lights or dashboard messages at the time the symptoms first appeared. The suspected failure is the torque converter/torque converter clutch in the automatic transmission. After diagnosis, I was advised that the torque converter failure contaminated the transmission fluid/internal transmission components, and that the transmission now requires replacement. The failed transmission/related components may be available for inspection upon request, depending on repair timing. This condition created a safety concern because the drivetrain was not operating normally at highway speeds, causing inconsistent power delivery and concern that the transmission could slip, overheat, fail further, or leave the vehicle unable to maintain speed in traffic. A sudden loss of propulsion or worsening transmission failure could increase the risk of a crash. The problem has been diagnosed by a transmission repair facility. The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representatives. No crash occurred. No injuries occurred. No warning lamps appeared before the failure. The first noticeable symptom was the RPM flutter/surging at steady highway cruising speed. The exact internal cause is unknown, but the best assessment is torque converter/torque converter clutch failure resulting in contamination and failure of the transmission.

The paint on this vehicle is horrible. Now I am upside down in the vehicle and unable to get anything close to what is owed. No one affiliated with GM/Chevy will take any responsibility

The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving approximately 40-50 MPH, the driver's side curtain and front air bags, and the passenger's side curtain air bag deployed without impact. The contact stated that the front driver's side seat belt automatically retracted during the failure, but both the front driver's side and passenger's side seat belts had failed to retract manually after the failure. The contact was able to pull over to the side of the road. The air bag warning light illuminated after the failure. The contact sustained a burn on the back of the upper arm and a cut on the front of the forearm. The contact did not receive medical assistance. The contact was able to continue driving. The dealer and the manufacturer were not contacted. The vehicle was not yet diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 272,200.
