One problem related to automatic transmission has been reported for the 2000 Chevrolet 1500. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
My transmission went out @ 70637 miles . This conversion van is used mainly for long distance travel. Isn't it rather coincidental that my neighbors like van's transmission went out too. Now this is after the extended warranty expired on 3/24/2005. This van has been nothing but trouble. I have never gone on a trip with out some sort of vehicle trouble with this van. It left me in the boondocks of minnesota last summer three times because of a faulty "security" computer chip and has numerous "engine check lights" that come on and then off. But, the main thing is the transmission. I firmly believe that general motors installed a transmission that is too small for a vehicle of this size and weight.
