2 Noises During Shifting problem of the 2019 Chevrolet Colorado

Failure Date: 01/15/2019

The transmission has a delayed downshift, causing the truck jump forward during a stop. When coming to a stop, it feels like the truck is being hit from behind, at the same time, making a loud mechanical noise. Sometimes it hits so hard, it will cause the truck to be thrown past my driveway, while preparing to turn into the driveway. It was recommended that the factory transmission fluid be replaced with a thicker fluid, so I took it to the dealership and had that done. Although it fixed the previous issue of vibration, caused from the transmission switching back and fourth between gears rapidly, but it did not fix the hard and delayed downshift. This has been an issue from the moment I pulled it off the lot, with only 4 miles on the odometer. The truck was immediately returned to the dealership, in which they said they could find nothing wrong with it.
