    I have a 2026 Chevy Silverado 1500 turbo max, with a 8 speed transmission, it does not always downshift into first gear when coming to a stop, also has some vibration when accelerating getting on the freeway, when pulling into my driveway which has a slight incline it jumps down into gear and lunges toward my garage door, I've taken it to chevy in reno twice now. First time they said it's not throwing any codes, did not do anything, second time they checked it again and could not duplicate the issue I was complaining about, as soon as i left the dealer it did it again, there are known issues with the 8 speed trans, a possible fix is to flush the transmission and reprogram it, so chevy has done nothing, I'm finding out that if it's warranty work they don't want to perform any unless they're forced to, I'm looking dumping this truck or invoking the lemon law.

    In December of 2021 my family and I purchased a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Custom brand new from a local dealership. At roughly 52000 miles the truck began to experience a shutter and inconsistent torque converter lockup. I took the truck into a dealership and had them run a diagnostic in which they stated I would need to do a transmission fluid flush. I argued this problem (via text to the advisor in which I retain receipt of) was deeper than a transmission fluid issue and even requested a test drive with their technician who recommended a torque converter replacement. However it was denied and GM/Dealership said the flush had to be done at an out of pocket expense. I also had them quote me $600 for the fluid flush and then $1600 for replacement of the active grille shutter system that failed.

    I took the truck in to get a second opinion in which the dealer stated the same thing that GM would not move further unless the fluid was changed. I ultimately did the fluid flush at 55,000 miles. Fast forward to 59,000 miles the truck was back at the dealership for a severe engine tick in which fell under warranty totaling a $3800 repair. Fast forward to now 72,000 miles and the transmission issue has resurfaced and after a diagnostic from the same dealer they state the truck need a full transmission replacement which is quoted at roughly $8,500. I asked for cost assistance and was originally denied, I started a claim with GM customer service and was offered a 50% coverage. I pushed back and was offered nothing in addition.

    I stand firmly stating that I did my part to voice this issue was a failing transmission prior to warranty expiration and GM decided to push the flush knowing it would band aid the issue until the warranty expired. This truck has required nearly $14,000 in repairs in less than 5 years of ownership. It is not physically justifiable for any new $45,000 vehicle to need repairs equaling 31% of the vehicle cost. This isn't including the standard maintenance items cost. I will likely be attaining legal assistance to fight for compensation. Totally unacceptable and I will never own another GM product. I was a loyal customer and purchased multiple GM vehicles within two years but this has changed my whole opinion of General Motors.

      I recently purchased a turbo max Silverado 150 five months ago and it convulses chatters slams into gears is very annoying and quite frankly makes me sick with motion sickness. I was told when I brought it in for repair there was nothing wrong with it after I had to drop it off a day in advance and take a loaner car to go to work in construction. What an inconvenience.

      I've currently started looking at other makers. Please note I've owned seven or eight brand new out of the showroom, Chevy vehicles and the quality has gone down dramatically. I would reconsider to anyone considering buying a new Chevy truck. I wish I would've never traded in my 2020 but that's what I get for wanting to support my Chevrolet dealerships. I recently revisited the dealership to purchase a brand new truck because of my dislike of the turbo max and they pretty much slapped me across the face with a price. I lost my downpayment and everything for my recent purchase and then somewhat a scam.

      Well where do I Start. About 2 yrs ago I made the decision of switching from gas vehicle to Electric. I had a 2016 Chevy Silverado. Bought it brand new. Had 46000 miles on it when I upgraded to the New 2024 Chevy Silverado EV RST. I was initially happy with my EV vehicle until last week. While driving home I received a message on the dashboard saying service High Voltage system. I immediately contact Chevy the customer service, and was advised to take it to the closest dealership. Which I did. Koons Chevy. They advised that they would check it out and let me know. Well my Brand new 2024 EV Chevy has been sitting now for over 7 days. Was advised on 4/28/26 that the AC compressor went bad and now the part is on back order and that the estimated time for delivery is going to be over a month. Now that’s absolutely ridiculous.

      Wait. Here is where it gets worse. The only reason I went EV is to avoid these crazy gas prices. Now they gave me a gas Silverado which cost me over $70.00 already. I just advised the dealer that this isn’t going to work for me. Anyways through it all General Motors have not call or responded to my emails. Anyone out there thinking of switching please do your research when it comes down to purchasing these high price vehicle ($98,000.00) and within a year or two it’s breaking or having issues which is so much of an inconvenience for the customer.

      I got my 2026 RST in Jan with 6 miles on it. Left the lot of EDWARDS CHEVROLET all excited since I traded my 2023 LTZ. 67 miles heading back home the engine light and both light comes on the dashboard so I called my salesman to tell him and he ask could I bring it back but I was already upset because I got ripped off. Asked for the same model I had with the same feature that I had on my LTZ but instead as I’m signing my paperwork the guy constantly asking have I saw the truck and I’m like, "No because my salesman only sent pictures from the outside and of course the day he sent the pictures it was raining so I didn’t get any inside pictures of the truck." So they asked me to pull over and I did turning the truck off and restarted it & the lights went off (yes I was able to take pictures of the lights while I was driving).

      Then my next bad experience I had to turn around so I made a U-turn in the road and when I hit reverse the truck stall while traffic is coming. For 5 minutes I’m sitting in the middle of the road, truck wouldn’t go in DRIVE OR REVERSE. As I’m panicking it wouldn’t cut off or anything. Finally it cut off and I was able to restart and get out of the way. Then last night my husband started the truck and it made a dragging noise as if it was stalling to start. I haven’t had this truck only for 3 months and it’s been giving me a headache since the day I got it. If I can trade it I would for my 2023 I gave them. But I’m here today at the GMC to get service done and I am told about a recall on it. I just went on the website and see multiple recalls along with the fact I only got 1 key for it. I know Lemon Law is my next step. Do not waste your money getting a RST PLEASE.

      My 2023 Silverado 1500 has been nothing but trouble. It has the turbo charged engine and has left me stranded on the side of the road 3 times in 48K miles as the transmission continues to fail. They have replaced the throttle body twice now and as of this morning it is back in the shop for the same symptoms after having to tow it over 100 miles to get it back to the dealership. DO NOT BUY THIS TRUCK! It apparently happens so frequently that the last time, the part was backordered for almost a month to get it fixed.

      I used to only buy GM vehicles. The recent Silverado I leased has changed my tune. I’ve had nothing but problems with it. The vehicle randomly goes into limp mode on the highway. Dealer can’t figure out what’s wrong with it. The cameras also randomly stop working. It’s been repaired and recurred three times. I finally get to the end of the lease, truck is clean, and they charge me a $423 disposition. Enjoy the $423, it’s the last you’ll ever get from me.

      I've had Chevrolet and GM vehicles all my life. I am 67 years old. I have had "MANY" 1975 Chevy trucks, both 2WD and 4WD, 1/2 ton and 3/4 tons. Got a million HARD miles out of those trucks - NO BS. Fast forward to 2020. Bought a "High Country" with the 5.3 in it. VERY glad I didn't buy the 6.2 engine. This high country should be called "High Risk". Fortunately for me, I have not blown the engine yet, due to their absolutely STUPID DFM (dynamic fuel management) crap they put on it. I think it would have blown by now, if I hadn't have done oil changes every 3000 miles. YES. 3000 miles. Not cheap! Mobil One 0-20W Full Synthetic with Wix XP filters.

      Today I flushed the engine with LiquiMoly Engine flush and added LiquiMoly Cerakote and LiquiMoly Lifter Additive. NOT cheap. Also, due to the DIRECT INJECTION fuel system, you HAVE TO add fuel additives. Good ones ! NOT cheap ones. I use Techron Concentrate Plus Fuel System Cleaner, as well as BG 44K Fuel System Cleaner Power Enhancer. They do work but they are NOT CHEAP. You will notice better performance. I buy them by the case to try and save money. I do my own oil changes still because I don't trust quick lubes OR EVEN the factory, but I'm getting tired of doing them. I am gambling that all my "preventative maintenance" will pay off and not blow up the engine prematurely.

      This is the "TRUE COST" of this "HIGH RISK COUNTRY" truck. I am not impressed at all with Chevrolet/GM. When and if this "HIGH RISK COUNTRY" truck blows up... I think I will try another manufacturer, but WHO? Not sure who. Seems all new trucks have problems. Even my FORD and DODGE buddies have issues. So, if you are buying a new truck, expect to pay LARGE for oil changes and preventative maintenance. Time will tell I guess. I am gambling. I'm at 49,000 miles so far.

      Brand new Chevy Silverado 2021 6.6 Turbo diesel. Took it in to get the 4x4 service fluids. The vehicle's service report was up to date, and there was only one Quart of transmission fluid when the mechanic did the flush!! I do oil change on regular basis! After reviewing all fluids I'd strongly say these trucks become ass at 150k miles AND maybe sooner if its not deleted. So sad, spent my hard earned money on what I thought was a touchdown. No these trucks are worth 30k MAX. If you're reading this be worry for any newer vehicle.
