1 Transmission Pump problem of the 2016 Chevrolet Suburban

Failure Date: 10/04/2020

Suburban has 125,000 miles. No warning lights ever came on. It was driving fine. Stopped at a gas station and put it in park. When it was put back in drive, it wouldn't go. The rpm's revved up and the vehicle would not shift into gear. After stopping on the side of the road, re-started vehicle. It went into drive and got us to a safe location. However, as soon as we tried to go anywhere, it continued to not shift into gear. Still no warning lights came on. It was taken to a Chevrolet service center. They said the transmission pump was out. Additionally, they have been repairing 3-4 2016 Chevrolet Suburban transmissions every month. All with low miles.

2 Transmission Pump problem of the 2015 Chevrolet Suburban

Car would rev, then shift very hard into gear from a full stop - either going forward or into reverse. Had also noticed some uneven gear shifts when go up hills and revving of engine prior to transmission engaging when on the highway. Taken to dealership, where I was told the transmission pump went out and would require the entire transmission to be replaced, which was not under warranty. This happened at 144,400 miles. However, the remanufactured transmission would be waranteed for 300,000 miles.
