With no warning at all, driving down the interstate, truck lost 3rd gear. This is the second Chevrolet silverado this has happened to for us (first time, we thought it was an isolated bad transmission) however, it is obviously due to Chevrolet making junk, and putting the passengers of their vehicles in danger. Driving down the interstate at 60 miles per hour, with a sudden transmission failure was extremely dangerous. I will be pursuing this further.
