  A lot of good people are getting screw over by General Motors. There was a time when GMC made the best transmissions on the planet.

  My 2017 GMC Sierra is experiencing some harsh shifting patterns. I have had several instances of jerking and shaking. I also had a major hard downshift & acceleration which almost caused me to hit a vehicle on a freeway. My check engine light will come on now & then.

• GlennApril 15, 2024 at 7:03 am

  I live in North Carolina I was driving to Alabama to visit my MOM the 2016 Tahoe LTZ stop working properly put me down in Lagrange GA. The Check engine Light came on, my GMC app said Engine and Transmission System. I almost had a wreck on Interstate 85 tried pulling back into traffic and the Tahoe just wouldn't go I had to pull back on the side of the road.

  92K mileage, just exceeded the 7yr warrentee. Torque converter blew sending metal shards throughout the transmission. Need a transmission. Cost of the "new" GM rebuilt w/ labor is $6,500. Dealer offered $200 discount.

The car lost acceleration while crossing a 6 lane highway. We were at a soccer tournament 4 hours from home. I made my way on a Sunday evening to the last Auto Zone open. We trouble shooted and put a quart of transmission fluid in the SUV. I frantically made my way home only to have the issue continue on our way to school in the AM amd again in a frightening situation, requiring me to pull over and call Triple A. I am now being quoted $7,700.00 to replace the transmission that I learned is part of a class action law suit.. Question for GMC - Are you OK not stepping up to the plate and doing the right thing? Provide the recall and take ownership. Is it going to take a death to open up your eyes. Oh, that’s right, according to the lawsuit, you were fully aware of the faulty transmission when we purchased these cars so that bears no relevance. For administration that has the ability to due right by this, If it was your family member or you for that matter, how would you handle this. Have a heart! This is criminal and insane! I will be happy to share your business practices through out the neighborhoood apps and social media nationwide.

  I have a 2015 GMC Yukon XL with 93,000 miles on it. The vehicle is shuttering, slipping gears, failing to shift and losing power. Two separate auto shops said the vehicle needs a new transmission due to a torque converter failing resulting in metal pieces flowing through the system. $6,000 to replace. I have a friend who recently experienced the exact same issue with their GMC Yukon as well.

Tyler told me it was learning my driving style and this was normal. Said give it 500 miles to break in. 104 days later and 5 hrs from home the reman transmission failed due to bad torque converter again without warning. GM authorized Dan Vaden Chevy in Brunswick, GA to install another reman transmission in my Tahoe and it too has shifted poorly from day one since picking it up from that dealership service dept. Took it to Rick Hendrick Chevy in Buford, GA dealership service dept (3rd different one since Feb of this yr) and they are also telling me that there’s nothing wrong with this transmission, shifting issues are normal, it’s learning my driving patterns, and give it another 500 miles on top of the nearly 500 I have already driven this 2nd reman transmission to break it in. Extended warranty claim person Matthew and a reputable mechanic friend of mine both said premature failure of these transmissions is “pretty common.” There is a serious problem with this transmission model and Chevy knows it but refuses to take ownership of it. I owe too much on this Tahoe to trade it in and was also told by finance manager Alan at the Rick Hendrick Chevy dealership in Buford, GA today that they have concerns about taking my Tahoe as a trade in due to the transmission issue. Please add me to the class action lawsuit.

  93k and my tranny went out on my 2015 Silverado. Had a shop do a soft rebuild for $3,200 since I caught it early. How and when will this lawsuit be over? Are the 6L80 even apart of it this!?! Seems to be more common then the 8speeds. I'm taking my invoice hoping that I can one day be reimbursed for something as seems this will happen again.

Dealer installed another crate unit, and told me no more warranty beyond the remainder left on the 2nd unit. Both units were serviced at gm recommended intervals by gm service departments. I have about 40k on the third unit which has never acted 100% correct, and fear it won't even last as long as the others. The problem in both of the failed units was the torque converter, it fails and sends metal throughout the trans wiping it out. GM knows this and they won't change the torque converter they use because to do so would acknowledge they have a problem and make them liable for millions. I know over a dozen people with these transmissions in their pickups and not one has last over 120k miles.

Almost was hit twice by traffic waiting on tow truck which was $415 to get it home. Got it home starting calling around for repair and prices. Minimum 4k but some shops recommended upgrades cause it's a piece if junk. So I was putting on a waiting list for 4 months cause the shop owner said he's getting rich and all of his buddy's that also own transmission shops all got new boats and race cars cause they're doing 3-5 of these a week at 4-6 grand a piece. Well fast forward the 4 months I'm hanging onto the money I need for the repair and fell into a relapse with my ulcerative colitis which stress exacerbates the chronic illness and was down bad for several months afterwards. I was completely stressed about this entire truck situation those 4 months waiting my turn. Then had to use the money to stay current on bills i.e. a truck payment on a truck that I couldn't drive. So this entire year I've attending all my doc appts and traveling back n forth to work in my 88 S10. I'm not about to take a loan out to fix my transmission in top of my existing loan on it. This isn't the first time it let me down either. February of 2021 I kept smelling gas and the fuel pump was completely rusted out. No anti corrosion from the factory. Just raw steel. That was 500 bucks and I pulled the bed of myself cause I called and it was a 2500 dollar repair. GM needs at the very least to compensate each and everyone of us owners our repair costs. What's taking so long to get this class action lawsuit going on the 6L80's? I spent the 2 weeks researching this issue and there are literally thousands of us all with the same problem. So I'm getting proactive at this point. Cause this is just down right evil on GM customers

Called my dealer that had done all of the service and where i purchased the vehicle, and they told me of the existing problems and that GM recommended flushing or changing fluids at every 35k miles or so. My question to my dealer Mark Martin of Ashflat Ar. was if you knew of the issues and you had serviced this vehicle since i bought it at a year old and only having 25k miles on it, why you hadn't informed me of this and suggested this when i brought it in for servicing? You Checked the boxes that you checked all of the fluids and everything was fine. They told me that i should read owners manual on recommendations of fluid changes, so i referred to the owner manual which already knew it wouldn't be in there and no such fluid change for transmission fluid at every 35k miles was in there. Needless to say I didn't let them do the repair on my transmission and used a different mechanic that I trusted. He sent me pictures of the transmission pan that was so full of metal shavings it was unbelievable. The 6L80 transmission has been used in models ranging from 2008 to 2019 chevy tahoes, silverados and many more models so it is obviously been a good transmission which tells me the problem was something that was caused by a mistake in production in relation to the transmission. I have owned nothing but Tahoes, Yukon and a Denali xl since the year 2004 and never had such problems. As a matter of fact the 2001 Tahoe was the best vehicle ever owned and is still running today and has never had the transmission fluid changed in it and has only had regular servicing and a water pump and fuel pump were the only two things that I ever had to replace on it and that was totally normal for the age and miles of the vehicle. GM should make this right. It cost me around 5K after parts, labor, towing, reprogramming fess.

Tried to send me away again. Wife had to leave work for this and take ride with mechanic. Bad torque converter. Flushed it. Still shudder occurred a while later. Changed torque converter. Air conditioner noise. Bad tire dealership tried to get me to pay for at 11000 miles. Car would not go in park. Paid for that. Check engine light came on last week. Car was extremely sluggish. Transmission fluid sensor. Had car towed and cost me 1100 dollars. Car was under 60000 miles and a measly 4 months over 5 year warranty. 3 days later I'm driving and I go to make a left hand turn and same thing happened. Almost no power and high RPMS. Almost got T Boned by a semi truck. All of this happened under 60000 miles and some just a few months after warranty expired. Now GMC of Gainesville called me and said nothing is wrong with it. I almost got into a life changing accident because of this. I have paperwork to prove everything I stated. I wasted ALOT of my time and thousands of dollars because of this. Not to mention the extreme stress I have suffered. Forgot to mention that a while after replacing Torque converter had shake again. Was advised that after Davis replaced it they had put wrong fluid in converter. Had it flushed again. Inferior GM products and dealership negligence is going to cost me more thousands for a new transmission. How do they get away with this?

  My transmission on my 2015 GMC Terrain has just failed and will cost $5400 to repair. These transmission problems started a year after I bought the vehicle. Then something related to transmission would happen 1 year and a half later for the next years until it has finally crashed. This is relatively a new vehicle and I should not have to be replacing this transmission.

I have had the Chevy dealership look at it, found nothing wrong. Had my local mechanic use his high tech scan computer, could not find any problems. It is hard when no check engine codes come up. The transmission has had the software updated, trans fluid and filter changed, nothing has helped the sluggishness during slow take off. When engine is cold, it seems to be worse. My strong feeling is the torque converter is in early stages of failing. That is why I am providing this information. Also, on strong acceleration you can feel a slight pulsation. The Yukon has new spark plugs as well as wires. I even replaced the coil packs. Nothing has helped.

The 6 speeds have the same issue it's not just the 8!!!! $3800 to rebuild trans with a new converter. I own three GM vehicles and I now will stay away from GM if they won't backup issues they have caused and is sticking customers with such large repair bills. My first car was a 55 chevy my Dad an I rebuilt. Been a GM guy my whole life and I'm now disgusted with them over this!!!!! Why not own up to it, replace the torque converters and save everyone from having to replace/rebuild transmissions!

So i took it back to the dealer and they said it was just fine and said that the trans needed to learn my driving habits and would be fine. Ive taken it back 3 times and they said that it was normal. Last month i was coming back from Utah and it started acting wierd so i pulled over and shut it down and cycled the key thinking it would reset the computer and started it up and i had no gears nothing ! So i waited 4hrs for a tow truck. I took it to the same place i bought it from Fairway Chevorlet in LV Nev.My truck was in there for 1mon and 2 weeks. They said the pump went out in the tranny therefor it burned up everthing in the trans. The trans got so hot it melted the clutches together and the pan and converter were blue smoked. I never got a check engine light or any indication what was going on. So they told me ot was 4600.00 for a NEWTRANS Not a rebuilt one. I asked them for a loner car and never got one. On my paper work ,reciept it says that the trans is a remaned trans. Im so done with all there Bullshit lies im sorry to say ill never own another GM product. I bought an extended warranty which was over on miles but.still good on exp date. They said it was either or. I lost again.I would say that the pump was a manufacture defect. What do i know ! What i do know ill never get a GM car again.

  My 2011 Silverado with the 6L80. Torque converter innards shredded and blew metal shavings throughout the whole system. They’re trash too! What about the little bit older vehicles that have the same problems? I’m serious about joining a lawsuit over the many breakdowns, tows, and eventual rebuild that cost me almost $2000!

• HenryMay 29, 2021 at 12:09 am

  2017 chevy suburban 82000 miles and transmission is out. Tech said torque converter went out and sent metal through transmission. Almost 5000 to fix. Will never buy a chevy again.

  I have a 2016 Chev. Suburban and am having trouble with the transmission. When accelerating and going up hill it has a jerky motion. My mechanic says the transmission will need to be replaced. Is there a law suit against GM for faulty transmissions?

  I bought my 2018 chevy colorado brand new. A few months later it started hesitating, jerks forward in different gears, very sluggish, shifts like it doesn't know what gear it's suppose to be in. The first time the dealer told me yes there is a problem with your trans and they replaced the fluid. Helped for a few miles then right back to crap.

  My 2015 gmc sierra 1500 had the torque converter go out 99,989 miles. It has never been off rd nor driven hard. Mechanic stated had metal shavings from rivets/bolts backing out causing it to shutter. 2800$ in repair

We have continued to put up with this until last week when the transmission went out at 78 k miles .. Called the dealership , they now cant find any prior report of any transmission issues and guess what , now the guy we delt with for our warranty no longer works there which equals nothing they can do they tell us ,lol .. Ive purchased many new GM vehicles in my 58 years but never again , we have been nothing short of railroaded on this new 65000 vehicle .. Lookin to get in on any class action i can for 2017 yukons -- you lawyers email me please , im pissed to say the least

  I own a 2019 Sierra at 3400 miles the trans and converter failed. I’ve been waiting 6 weeks for a new trans. Gm customer assistance is no help and their roadside assistance insisted on towing the truck 2 1/2 hrs further from my home leaving me with a 10 hr drive to get the truck instead of 5. Additionally no vehicles available to tow my boat that hasn’t been out of the garage for the duration

Yesterday while on my way home from work, the truck began to vibrate more violently. I called the dealer service and they immediately said that the transmission needed to be flushed as some of the fluids used break down in the humid weather. They scheduled me in next Tuesday. They said would it run $650 for the flush and hoped that it would fix the problem. 18 GMC Canyon Denali I have bought 4 new GM trucks for personal use in the last 8 years from the same dealer.

• PaulAugust 12, 2020 at 2:07 pm

  This started at about 80,000 miles I turned it in at 90,000 miles. It was getting progressively worse. They have it now, and are replacing the fluid. No help from GM and my "platinum" extended warranty will not cover it.

Usually jerking happens between first to third gear. They dealership said the the shaking is what a Corvette does. The car downshifts hard as well.. this jerking feels as if someone hit me from the back.. 2 weeks ago, the car RPMs went way high and did not go anywhere. In that same week I was on the freeway, during traffic time, I lifted my foot off the gas petal and let it slow down, during the slow down it jerked hard... something is wrong here.

  I have 2017 Yukon SLT. Was at the dealership with different problem 4 times and I think it is linked to transmission problem. Some times SUV makes exhaust like noise and looses power. Now it shakes and kicks under load. It feels and sounds like torque converter. Dealer as always says " IT IS NORMAL"...I don't think its "normal" on over $60K SUV.

• TommyJanuary 23, 2020 at 12:39 am

  I bought new 2017 Silverado in May 2016. The transmission began down shifting hard just over 60k miles same time warranty went out. Transmission began surging at 94500 miles. Within 2 days forward motion stopped. Had to make hefty spend to replace with rebuilt transmission.

The truck is still in the shop and they are shooting from the hip on what to do next. They are telling me that GM has nothing on this issue. But if you search the internet, it's all over and GM does not want to do anything about it.

  We have issues with the shaking and jerking on tour 2016 GM Acadia. Started at about 55,000 miles. We have been to the dealers a few times. Replaced sensors to up to $1000. Last time told us a wheel weight fell off and that was the issue. Pretty scary.

  I have a 2018 Chevy Colorado ZR2 which has had transmission problems within the first few months. They flushed it and it came right back a couple thousand miles later. It hesitates, jolts forward, falls out of fear, shifts all over the place at low speeds....it has a mind of its own...all this on top of electrical problems....shame on GM for pulling a fast one on the consumer....karma

It's currently going back in on Thursday for a tranny breakdown. The vehical now has 67k on it.. Like many have said on forums it seems like there has been a constant stall on addressing the issue until the problem is out of warrentee. Then it becomes the owners costly mistake. BBW- GMs initial power train only goes to 60k..luckily I purchased the extended warranty that took it to 100k. I wonder how we can be added to the class action suit?? Anyone know??

The tech then told me that GM was aware of the issue, but has no resolution for this problem and that there was nothing my family or I could do. So then, I thought I'll trade it in and get something without that type of transmissions. I then went to get my truck appraised for trading in, the manager and sales person both informed me that due to my transmission problems, the value of the vehicle is substantially low then what it should have been. I was told that I would have to roll nearly twenty thousand dollars over into a new payment. So I did the only thing I could do, I walk out and left with my truck. This was at Rick Hendricks Chevrolet, my wife and I have bought five vehicles from them in the past ten year I've been stationed at Little Creek Navy base.
