2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 transmission complaints
Page 3 of 6: complaints 41 to 70 of 138, newest first, as owners wrote them.
A 2015 Chevrolet Silverado seemed to be running rougher after an oil change. When inspected by dealership, Litha Chevrolet located 200 East Cypress Ave in Redding CA, they identified lower end knocking and lifter ticking noise. Also identified was PO300 was randomly missing and PO324 Knock Sensor performance. The dealership recommended total engine replacement, after reviewing the report. The 2015 Silverado is currently out of commission. It is not roadway safe. The Silverado has been serviced regularly as recommended and has not been in any collisions in the past. The truck has had one owner previously, my father, who left me the truck when he perished. I relied on the truck for daily and extended transportation for myself and my children. I have maintained excellent care of the 2015 Silverado with regular maintenance and services. There is no explanation of this issue other than it was caused by faulty equipment from the manufacturer. If you can provide any information regarding how to fix this please contact me. Thank you
The transmission began slipping and failed at 106,000 miles in spite of obtaining all recommended services throughout the life of the vehicle. It failed completely while driving, which was a major safety issue. It now needs a new transmission. After searching online, I see that numerous owners have reported issues with the 2015 Chevy Silverado transmission. There were no warning lights. It began to make a noise and a shaking and failed about one week later.
My flex fuel sensor went out at 58000 miles, Transmission always giving problems on all Chevy transmission & should be on recall
4WD (transfer case) malfunctioned, locking the truck in 4WD mode and making road driving dangerous and potentially damaging to the truck. No prior issues. $500 software repair.
transmission failed at 70 500 miles
It started out with the transmission slipping/jerking at about 50 mph. Then as it progressed it began whining. We were barely able to get it to a mechanic to have it looked at. We were told it was the torque converter which caused the transmission to need to be replaced.
Vehicle went into neutral while driving on highway. Depressing accelerator only caused engine to wind. Pulled over into a parking lot, put vehicle into (P)ark, turned engine off, restarted ignition, and transmission began to function again.
Transmission keeps going in neutral all by itself. Me an my family has almost got hit several times
My wife came home and told me there was something wrong with our truck. I went and inspected it and found nothing. The next day i drove the truck about 30 miles up river. Coming home I was traveling around 55 mph the truck came to a sudden slow down as if I had locked up the brakes then drove fine again. This happened three or four times not as bad as first time. While in town stopped at a light it tried to take of. Not like something giving it gas but like it was in gear and the brake wasnt going to hold it. Almost put me into a school bus ahead of me. Then the rest of the way home it kept binding down and releasing then binding back down. Hard to control but not necessarily a break problem. Its something else. I have worked on vehicles all my life, professionally for 25 years. I never seen a vehicle do this. It has to be in the transmission. Maybe something in the torque converter would be my guess. I have heard of the issues with the 8 speed ever sense this happened I have parked this truck. I cant afford a need transmission that doesnt actually fix the problem from what i hear. I feel GM needs to do something here. At least pay for the parts to fix it
Driving 25mph for 3 miles leaving my house speed limit increased to 55 and as i stepped on gas to speed up truck shuttered, shook, and ck engine light came on. #6 cylinder has no compression, found info about common chevy problem 122000 miles.
For several years this truck will at times start "grade braking" on its own. In other words, at speed, ie: 55 mph, the computer chip will tell the transmission to downshift to assist in "grade braking". The danger is that it actually speeds up the truck, and while attempting to stop at a stop sign, (or light), the truck is actually speeding up, while I am actively pushing on the brake pedal to stop at the light. I ended up having to replace the transmission with a new (rebuilt) transmission. I hoped this would end the problem, but now once again, I have the problem occurring with the replacement transmission. GM tells me they cannot program out the grade braking component. This is a very dangerous situation in which one day I will be unable to stop where required, due to stopped traffic, or a stop signal.
vehicle is shifting hard between 1st and 2nd. it only seems to do it at lower speeds. the RPMS had a shudder between and only once the truck has been running for awhile. has been in to an independent service dept. at the local dealer where it was purchased and has had all work done since purchased. there are no warring lights or check engine messages. they flushed all fluids and hooked to diagnostic machine found nothing. had it back for a week and it did it again. Took it back to them and had them ride along so they could see what it was doing. they replaced the torque converter although the shudder is gone but it still shifts hard between 1/2
the federal safety agency campaign number 18V586. GM’s recall is 18289. Power steering at low speeds with voltage drop causes power steering to lose control
Transmission slipping, set cruise control and it would engage for some time and then disengage without warning. I followed all maintenance requirements for the transmission like flushing the transmission at the appropriate mileage.
The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving approximately 75 MPH, the vehicle began to shake, with vibrations coming from the center console and the passenger’s side front seat.

I am having issues with my transmission. When I first turn on the truck in the morning, put it in gear, and lightly accelerate the truck accelerates way too fast then cuts out the power. It is enough to throw me forward or back in my seat and it honestly is frightening. I am also having problems with the vehicle shifting incorrectly causing me to have no power or a sudden surge of power. This is usually when i have slowed down and them am trying to accelerate again. Also, When I am slowing down to stoplights, the vehicle will occasionally shift down to too low of a gear and act like i am slamming on the brakes. I have had several close calls with this truck due to this issue. Gm knows about the issue and has refused to recall the vehicles that are having these problems. They are recommending changing out the fluid multiple times at the owners costs. This has resulted in several class action lawsuits. They also have gone to the lengths of changing warranty coverage to no longer include abnormal shifting. This is not safe. This is causing accidents and they are actively covering it up. Please help the hundreds of thousands of people that are having issues. We need your help, I need your help and gm is no longer standing behind their vehicles.
Air conditioning compressor busted and spilled oil and metal shards all over road. Condenser coil sprung a leak in 2019. Heavy vibrations in cabin when driving interstate speeds. Oil cooler lines leaking causing oil leaks and now I am noticing a leak on the radiator! Leak on the inner drivers side axle seal.
The truck would take off on its own. The steering column would lock up, and the brakes would fail. The transmission is currently slipping an d these are just a few thing that are/have happened.
The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500.

The contact continued to drive the vehicle. The contact stated that the failure had been reoccurring and the vehicle would lose power steering while parked. The contact stated that the stability tract control warning light and the 4-wheel drive warning light illuminated intermittently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the battery needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the wiring harness lid needed to be cleaned and the dialectic grease needed to be applied inside the connectors. The contact stated that the vehicle was repaired; however, the failure reoccurred while driving. Additionally, the dealer diagnosed that the transmission control module needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 45,000.
6l80 transmission has the Chevy shutter or slipping truck only has 60,000 miles not very optimistic that it will last till the 150,000 miles if it’s already acting up and I can hear metal slapping when shifting at various speeds and stopping speeds
The Chevy Silverado shakes around 65-70 mph and is continuing to worsen over the course of time. The original driveshaft may have been replaced by a dealer in the past (vin shows zero recalls to a known failure caused by aluminum driveshafts), but they have been replaced with the exact same aluminum driveshafts. This never resolved the original failure, but only pushed the failure down the road temporarily, putting new buyers safety at risk.
I was driving on the Freeway, when the gears on the Transmission started to idle. I was going about 65 miles per hr, when the vehicle would not move, even as a stepped on the gas pedal. I was able to put my hazard lights on and pulled over on the side shoulder of the Freeway. I immediately put the vehicle in park mode. While in park mode the vehicle started to make a very loud screeching noise. I turned off the vehicle to see if this would troubleshoot the issue. I turned vehicle back on and the noise did not go away, I put the vehicle back into gear and it would not move, it started to shake and the vehicle jumped into which I believe would have been 3rd gear. I was able to drive the vehicle to my house at 5 miles per hr with the Hazard lights on. My house was only 2 miles from the Freeway Exit. During the 2 Mike drive to my house, the vehicle kept jumping into gears. This could have caused a major accident on the Freeway. I need answers.

I purchased the silverado 2014 in July 2018 dealer ship in Orangeburge SC. 3 months after driveing the truck i pulled to stop sign when pulled off the stearing wheel went left and my intentions was to go straight my luck was on my side that day. I finally fought the steering back straight and pulled over turned truck off then started back up and no probloms until later on started getting codes on the dash so i took to dealer ship closet one near me , they reboted the ECM and i told the service manger at that time i open the hood and showed him the wire that sometimes i go to start truck all it would do make a cliking noise open hood shake the big cable coming from the battery then truck would start, finaly summer arrives i start useing my air condition it finally went out took back too dealer they say needed new compressor i had warranty at the time replaced compressor after 2 week no A/C back 2nd time a/c issues they put die in compressor no leaks drive another 2 weeks same no a/c tack back to dealer then they tell me my waranty has run out and appears you have condinsor leaking refrigerant they wanted me to pay for i finally agreed to pay half and dealer pay half .

Driving down the road and transmission gave out
The radiator is leaking and the transmission is making a clunking noise when shifted to reverse. The pickup has 48000 miles on it.
Intermittent rumbling and shaking ...feels like going over a rumble strip but it lasts for a little while and then repeats again after a little while.
The transmission has issues shifting into 3rd gear and then doesn't want to shift into 4th gear.
For no reason at approximately 57,000 miles vehicle developed a strong intermittent shudder at at low RPMs on highway alignment seems has not corrected issue and vehicle has always had a concerning vibration I have been told is "normal" vehicle is on its second transmission and torque converter and the warranty just ran out and it seems like it wants to fall apart these issues have been ongoing and don't seem to be resolved by dealer
