general problems of the 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500

Transmission was acting funny. Check engine light came on. Took it to a reputable transmission shop who stated it needs a full rebuild due to bad torque converter. $5500. The truck only has 65k mi.

Truck is under 105000 miles and needs a transmission due to a failed torque converter. First starts with erratic speeds in cruise control mode that is unsafe then will not shift into overdrive causing overheating issues.

The contact owns a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost automotive power. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 146,000.

Transmission needed rebuild at 108000 miles. Lifter failure in engine which damaged camshaft at 120000 miles. Each costing thousands in dollars of repairs probably close to $10000.

At only 71,000 miles the 6l90 transmission had to be replaced in my silverado because of slippage in fifth, sixth and heavy metal shaving showing in the pan. I have never plowed with this truck or abused the transmission. I've only towed up to 7,000 lbs which is well within specifications. As I continue to talk with other owners of the 6l90 and various mechanics, it has become evident that this particular transmission has a very high failure rate. Unfortunately the core to the failed transmission has already been returned, but what if something major internally failed that locked up the drivetrain and caused an accident? my mechanic john portal has replaced several 6l90's with multiple types of failures. The only warning I received from the transmission was an engine light which only appeared after the transmission started to fail.

Transmission issues. I was driving and thought my truck started skipping a little didn't think much of it. I stopped at gas station. Started to put off and my truck wouldn't move.

The contact owns a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500. The contact stated while driving 35 mph, the contact attempted to accelerate but the vehicle failed to respond. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact was able to pull over and turn off the vehicle. The contact stated that once the vehicle had cooled down, the vehicle was restarted and operated normally. The contact stated that the failure reoccurred. The dealer was contacted and stated that the vehicle needed to be diagnosed. The dealer suggested that the failure might be related to the transmission. The manufacturer was contacted and stated that the vehicle was not under recall and a case was filed. The failure mileage was 75,000. The VIN was not available.

The infotainment center seems to malfunction and push buttons on it's own or not respond to input, which seems related to a more serious problem I experienced where the gauge cluster was not reading anything out when I was driving, including not knowing what speed I was at or what gear I was in. I had to turn the vehicle off several times and restart it several times before the issue resolved.

The contact owns a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500. The contact stated while driving approximately 20 mph, the vehicle inadvertently shifted out of gear.

I was driving down the road, the truck began to shake and bounce real bad. I took to the dealership we purchased the vehicle from and they said $3500 for a new front end to replace all the parts. This truck has never been wrecked or hit anything. This vehicle has 85000 miles on it and its supposed to be a diesel farm truck. It appears the front end was made with parts and material that is not in compliance with industry standards. I was told by the dealership mechanic that the front end could collapse going down the road and injure someone when it collapses. This is on the front end of the truck, the entire front suspension is inadequately equipped with components to maintain the structural integrity of the suspension system.

Jerking of transmission/ gears. Gearing up and down. Shaking at higher speeds.

I am on a cross country trip and the vehicles engine light came on, I pulled into a chevy dealer for service. Chevy dealer claims the part needed for repair called an ecm module, (I. E. Computer) is not available and it is not being produced because of a defect in design. The vehicle has been with a chevy dealer for 10 days. I am 1100 miles from home and general motors has refused to give me a loaner to drive back to kansas city. In talking with the diesel technicians at two of the dealers, they claim this is a widespread problem that gm is trying to hide.

While driving my truck in 6th gear at 65 mph, I approached a hill and I changed the gear selector to the manual position and to my surprise it went into 4th gear, racing the rpms up to 3500 and tried to slow the truck down quicker than I wanted. The bigger problem with this is slippery snow covered roads, your apt to lose control. When you down shift to manual it should remain in the gear your in,and you push a button at your descretion as needed to a lower gear. Took it back to the dealer and they said thats the way it is,but they were surprised it did that as well. I feel its not safe it.
