My 2016 has 130k on it and these years are a bit " shifty " at times and I keep expecting it to let loose . So far so good . I got it hot once pulling my trailer up a long slow gravel road in the mountains . The tranny temp hit 276 degrees . It only had 30k on it but I was worried so i had an early transmission service . I had the dealer service it just in case I lost the tranny so they couldn't blame someone else for the service . GM says this tranny can hit 280 degrees without problems . Seems crazy hot to me

Chevrolet is apparently having lots of issues with the 8 speed and 10 speed transmissions in their trucks. I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw my 2022 Sierra had a 6 speed in it.

My bet is 8 or 10 speed.

It would be great if there's a recall issue.

My cousins husband bought a new Silverado last year that thing is always in the shop.

Did you buy it new ? Or any records that the tranny has been serviced ? I have a transmission service done every 60-70 K

And you need to get a set of spark plugs in it @ 100k .

And change the transfer case ,front and rear diff lube too.

Get a new belt tensioner and all new belts..AC..power steering, alt ..

I'd put an aftermarket trans cooler in it.

Maybe a long shot but worth a try. I have a 2003 Buick century that every once in awhile will get a hard shift in it but will go away once you shut it off and drive it again. Happens maybe once a month or so but one time it started slipping and seemed to me was skipping 2 nd gear and went right to 3rd. After searching all over online I came across a bunch saying transmission needed replace but one post said before putting key in ignition, step on gas pedal slowly 4 times and it reset some sensor. I thought was a long shot but I tried it and it worked. That was about 8 months ago and still a hard shift sometimes but the slip has never came back.

Even if we consider that 4 years old that is still over 25K a year on it. I thought you were a homebody? I thought my wife put miles on a vehicle, but, dang. You like to run around.

I have a 2005 Chevy 1500 4x4 that I swore felt like it was going to have transmission problems not long after I bought it. That thing still has the same transmission, knock on wood. Wife's 2017 Suburban had the transmission replaced a couple of years ago and it feels like it could go again any day.

Jerry just bought a used frontier .so i can still get back and forth to work.
When we get the chevy back well use it to haul hay or whatever and ill still drive the frontier.

Jerry drives a 2021 frontier.hes always driven a nissan.

The ramps paid for the truck so things arent all bad.

Nessie we bought it used with 24,000 miles.

Ive never said i was a homebody.

.l drive 57 miles a day round trip to work. And 36 to my evening job 3 days a week.

Mr jerry Pingley likes ton ake mine on the road trips to MN and wherever. More room.lol

So 3 days a wk its about 100 miles a day. Then ee. Go to the farm on the weekends which is . 125 miles one way.

But were gonna save miles on it now and drive the new used nissan.

Jerry tried it again. It starts fine but. It wont move front or reverse. Cant even shift into low

It had and has trams fluid in it

Jerry put 50,000 miles on his truck last year alone.

Usually he puts between 25 and 40 a year on his

Is the service engine/powertrain light on? Any warnings on the instrument cluster?

When it didnt go in Reverse the service engine light came on

Haha on the transgender comment.lol

It might be the transmission control module because the light came on

My 2018 had the transfer case seal fail at 52,000 miles.

Whatever you do. Don't tow in overdrive......I call bs on your buddies claim.
