5 Automatic Transmission Torque Converter problem

Failure Date: 08/22/2019

This truck is on its 3rd transmission. Both failed the exact same way. The torque converter overheated due to the v8 to v4 mode and warped the transmission. The first transmission swap was under warranty. The second swap was not. Which I had to pay 4800. 00 to replace. My mechanic told me this is a known issue with this model and they had to upgrade the transmissions. The second transmission that went in did not lat but 50k miles. Ridiculous. I do not drive my truck aggressively, nor is there any reason the trans should have failed twice with the exact scenario. It had increased rpms on the engine but truck did not move. When speed would slow down it felt like I was driving on rumble strips and I was on a back country road. I should be compensated for the second trans swap. Gm knew about this issue but never put a recall out. I am not a satisfied customer.

6 Automatic Transmission Torque Converter problem

Failure Date: 07/04/2019

While driving the truck started making a weird noise and then would almost feel like u ran over rumble strips. Within a couple weeks the truck will now no longer switch gears. There are shavings in tranny fluid. Almost had an accident because the truck just wouldn't shift or go while on the interstate. Chevy has put faulty torque converters in these trucks and they need to be held responsible for fixing this problem. There are thousands of other people that have the same exact thing happen to them. Failure was at only 120,000 miles and our truck is very well taken care of, maintenance done, and was never ever drove hard.

8 Automatic Transmission Torque Converter problem

Failure Date: 09/28/2017

I bought my 2014 silverado new . After 10,000 miles I could hear something in the drivetrain between 2nd and 3 rd gear make a moaning sound . Brought it to the dealership and couldn't find anything . This went on until 141,000 miles and the transmission came out . Had it rebuilt for $ 3,700. 00 and was told the torque converter caused the problem . Now I'm at 181,000 and we are hoping it's the tcm inside the transmission but if not who knows what this will cost . I think gm should be responsible for defective torque converters as I have read more customers have had the same problem . It would be nice to see some kind of reimbursement . I love my truck and have owned nothing but gm vehicles but this should not happen twice .
