Transmission problems. when reversing up a driveway the truck will stall as the gas is pressed it will rev up but not go anywhere, then jump into reverse as if the petal was floored. also some times when entering the highway the transmission doesn't shift into the correct gears also jumping into gear which could cause accidents.

On sept 21 2016 i arrived at my home. i drove up my gravel driveway in d(drive) and slowed to a stop and my truck began to roll backward under my control. i was checking on the ground for lawn damage. the truck shuttered twice, shut off and started to roll backward toward a tree. i quickly regained control with a panic stop. i was able to place the truck in park and restart the truck. i had lost control of the truck.

Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. upon depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle was extremely slow to accelerate with a drastic reduction in speed without warning. the vehicle was taken to two dealers who were unable to replicate and diagnose the failure. the manufacturer was notified of the failure and provided no recommendation or repair solution. the failure mileage was not available.

A reproducible condition exists when the driver removes their foot from the gas pedal, then quickly engages cruise control, then pushes the minus (-) button repeatedly to decelerate the cruise control, that the vehicle cruise locks up and flips back and forth between the desired speed and the original set speed, and does not decelerate. this can occur for several seconds, where the driver believes they are decelerating the cruise control but it is locked at its original setting, which could lead to an accident.

I park in a 5 level parking garage. several months ago, i was leaving when i came up to the ramp to the next lower level. i let off on the accelerator before i went from flat to lowering ramp. the truck shifted up to second gear, accelerated and through me toward the vehicle in front. the truck went out of my control. if i were not a safe driver i would have struck the vehicle. this issue has occurred another time as well. there have been other problems which are numerous. i will address them individual in further complaints.

Purchased new 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500 in january of 2016. experienced a vibration at all speeds from the very beginning of purchase. vibration gets worse at higher speeds. vehicle came with steel wheels from the factory. vibration can be felt in the seat and seen in the center console. vibration is coming from rear of vehicle. replaced wheels and tires with aftermarkets. the aftermarkets were bigger and heavier and made vibration extremely worse. after assuring that i wasn't dealing with a problem with the new wheels and tires, i put the factories back on and took the vehicle to dealership and reported the problem. the vehicle was in the shop for 3 1/2 months. the vehicle failed pico scope tests. they put several new tires on the vehicle, changed both rear axles, and changed ring and pinion in rear end. these steps helped reduce the vibration, but did not totally resolve the issue. they then decided to put aluminum wheels on the truck, which helped reduce the vibration down to barely noticeable. my concern is by putting the lighter wheel on the vehicle to reduce the vibration, they are only masking the problem, since the heavier the wheel/tire assembly, the worse the vibration. they are telling me they do not have to do anything else to the vehicle. general motors has told me they are not going to pursue the issue any further. they tell me they know there is an issue but not sure what it is and since it is not a safety issue they have honored the warranty. how do they know that it's not a safety issue if they don't know what the problem is. i believe they know exactly what the problem is and they are passing it on to the consumer. there was no disclosure of the issues with these trucks upon purchase. i do not feel safe in this truck and fear future problems with the issue. also, the truck on several occasions has down shifted abnormally causing rpms to rise.
