1 Automatic Transmission problem

Failure Date: 07/25/2025

After consulting with a certified technician, I’ve learned this model uses the same 6-speed transmission (6t40) found in several gm vehicles, and that it’s widely known to fail prematurely—many as early as 100k–117k miles. There are dozens of similar consumer complaints filed with NHTSA and discussed online. These are not isolated incidents but part of a consistent pattern of early, costly failures.
