I Got a Call Today That The Dealership Repaired My 2023 Chevy Silverado's Valve Body, But They Say It'll Take About a Thousand Miles For The Truck To Adjust

Yes I had to replace my transmission in a 2018 I just bought a year ago with two years now had replaced transmission and then they told me the same thing it got to get it settled in and stuff I was okay with that but then check engine light came on lots of power engine power light came on shifted just awesome I had a friend of mine check it with the machine he accidentally cleared it and they told me they couldn't pull it up that my guy cleared it and I left it with them for about a month and a half now they were driving and it broke down on side of the road anyway that's my think I think they might have it f*** you for me I had route 66 extended warranty thank you

Ai bit you in the ass again. The lead photo is an embarrassing hodge-podge of a real truck and a chunk of fictional metal....

That’s a leftist held EPA pounding every automaker with the most ridiculous demands for emissions and crash safety beyond what technology can sustain practically . Imagine your ECM gathering your driving habits to use against you.

The dealer ended up buying back our 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 4x4 with the 8-spd. We brought it in for shifting problems and they replaced the valve body. Gave it a month and the issues were worse. It was downshifting hard enough coming to a stop that it would chirp the tires.
The dealer wanted to replace the transmission but they were backordered with no ETA. We kept driving and the shifting only got worse. Only a year after purchasing this used truck in 2022, rather than get involved in a lemon law claim, they bought the truck back. I'm assuming it's still out there, with a new transmission. Sorry about your luck next guy. I won't be buying any newer GM trucks though. The hydramatics of old were generally durable and reliable, but GM seems to have forgotten how to make a good gearbox.

I have a 2002 3500 and can attest to the learning Allison transmissions even back then. 1st time I towed my camper to California for work, the camper sat for 6 months while using the 1 ton in daily stop and go typical Cali traffic. When I hooked up my camper to return home, turns out, my truck was NOT ready for the trip. Shifting early, no power band, just about got in a wreck from the nonperformance issues. Had to stop and pull the battery cables so it would reset back to factory spec. Was a very scary experience.

If the statement is true of the relearning process then is this true of a new truck also? If not why?

This isn't about government or political affiliation. Manufacturers compete for the "best of" in many categories. Power, ride quality, towing capacity, fuel economy, etc. are just a few of the things that people want better with each year. Automotive engineers used to make things that last, but traded that for planned obsolescence. The can build things to fail soon after the warranty ends. They expect most vehicle owners to trade in their vehicles before the warranty expires. Secondhand owners get less of the warranty, sometimes no warranty, unless you buy one.

All vehicles made today are over engineered garbage that's designed to break. No car can be called reliable when you have to dump several grand in "preventative" maintainence like timing belts every 70k miles. My 89 burb has a 350 and almost 900k miles. Engine is stock and I've only changed external drive belts. Nothing else. Every auto manufacturer is ripping you off and everyone says how great it is so Whatever. Until people get smarter overall we will forever be forced to drive garbage.

Had a 2021. Valve body went bad under warranty in the 10 speed. Drove it another 6k miles and ended up trading it in for a different brand/model. Never shifted smoothly after initial failure.

Morale of the story, don’t buy a GM product.

I really have a lack of understanding on how someone who is paid to write articles can be so incorrect. And frankly wrong. Adaptive transmission learning gas been around since the introduction of the "ultra drive" Chrysler A604 in 1988.

Since then every automatic transmission produced, by every vehicle manufacturer has adaptive learning.

And that is just a basic transmission 101 set of knowledge, stop pretending you know what your talking about.

I experienced the exact sme issue with my 2022 Chevrolet Silverado High Country. I have been a "Chevy Man" for quite some time. I owned a Silverado, Tahoe, and a corvette. Talk about dedication. However, after experiencing transmission issues with my Silverado, my dedication to Chevy has ceased due to the horrible treatment during the repair process. I was without my vehicle for months. Then to add insult to injury, after receiving my vehicle back, two weeks later the same issue. I promptly traded my truck and I am currently and totally turned off by Chevy!!!!!

I just traded my Tahoe for a F150. I am amazed that I can drive over 65mph in the Ford and the engine works as expected. Unlike my Chevy Tahoe that refused to be driven over 2 thousand RPM,s or the lifter would collapse and a god awful noise would begin causing a embarrassing moment for the driver if caught in traffic. Good riddance Chevy.

I bought a new 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500. LT had it for about six months transmission problems. Nobody at Chuck Nash Chevrolet could repair it so I got rid of the Chevy. I wouldn’t buy a Chevy truck if it was free they do make other types of vehicles That I like just don’t buy a Chevy Silverado or GMC 1500 from what I read they are plugged with problems do your research.

Just another issue you never have to deal with when you have an EV. Should have gotten the f150 lighting instead.

This is the third time I've taken my 2019 chevy silverado into the shop. 1st time they said it was fixed after they used the cpu on my transmission. Second time within the and year I took it in, it took 4 months to get my truck back and they ended up replacing transmission. This is the third time and it's going on 4 weeks now and they are saying they may need to replace the transmission again. Fml

2013 XTS awd, $168,000 mi. Multiple trouble shuttering a known problem in 2013 - 2014. Got the new transmission, $9,900 plus $800 for new auto load levelers. A month later and maybe your 1200 miles, now the transaxle is bad going to be another $1,200. It's a shame they didn't fix it all from the beginning it's all out of pocket. Still cheaper than a new Cadillac. It should have been covered within the transmission fix as they were connected causing the feel like the bottom was vibrating. Don't know what to do.

What did you expect? It's a GM product. They used to produce top of the line vehicles. I wouldn't have another brand. Now, I won't have a GM product. Sorry GM, but your technology has gotten the better of you.

What is hanging out of the hood of the pickup in the picture?

I just bought a 2019 Chevy Silverado 2wd . IVE Had problems since day 1 with it , it's been to the dealership at Westgate Chevrolet in Burgaw 3 times in about 9 weeks and now it's going back , they have come up with every excuse they can so there not responsible for the cost to fix it or if they can fix it.Its sad I've driven Chevrolets all my life and Chevrolet and GMC is nit recalling this issue. If anyone can help me with my situation please contact me at this email address .
Thanks Gary

That's why I don't buy new vehicles. To much crap on them to deal with and go wrong. The older basic vehicles were great and easy fix.
