Power Train · reported Nov 3, 2026
Drive train shudders intermittently seams like a program issue. Chevy trying to achieve higher MPG creating a driving issue. Loss of power on the highway. Makes me wonder about total failure at highway speeds and getting hit from behind. Chevy knows about this and makes the owner eat the cost and refuses to address the issue. I truly believe Chevy knows how to fix it but refuses and refuses to release accurate information.
Steering · reported Sep 20, 2026
September 18 2026 I was driving with my 3 grand kids in the truck when coming into a right curve the steering locked up causing me to go into on coming traffic. I yanked hard right and got it back in the lane. Felt like the truck cut off, pulled off side of the road looked it over didnât see anything wrong checked the steering seemed ok. Drove slow got my grandkids dropped off had a 15 min ride home, did it again. Donât feel safe driving it. Waiting for answers

When driving at a slow speed truck seemed to die down and not want to shift to next gears. Truck appeared to shake when pressing on the gas lightly.
Power Train · reported Aug 27, 2026
The vehicle experienced severe transmission hesitation, rough shifting, and shuddering early on, which was brought to a Chevrolet dealership under factory warranty at 16,875 miles (April 2021). The issue was reproduced by the dealer at that time. The transmission has now suffered a complete failure at 97,277 miles, creating an immediate driving and safety hazard due to loss of propulsion while operating the vehicle. The failed transmission and vehicle are currently available for inspection upon request.

Transmission is shuddering, I had a transmission flush done, and a tune up, and neither helped. I am concerned the transmission is going to go out while driving, especially in a busy intersection and cause an accident. I have had problems with the vehicle no accelerating when need going uphill to get out of the way of traffic when turning. Problem is duplicated every day until I can get it fixed. It has been looked at by a dealership and other personal mechanic shops. No lights on the dash have appeared.
