2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 engine complaints
Page 4 of 4: complaints 71 to 73 of 73, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Issue 1 - transmission: the chevrolet silverado has a 6-speed transmission that clunks / hard shifts (very hard). Gm indicates that this is normal and/or the transmission is adapting to your driving style. The clunk is very distraction (startling) when driving. The transmission also hesitates in selecting gears. This is very dangerous when attempting to accelerate into traffic. On two occasion, I attempted to merge on to the interstate and the delayed transmission engagement almost resulted in a collision. Issue 2 - engine: the chevrolet silverado has an active fuel management that drops the truck down to 4 cylinders. When this occurs, the entire truck will vibrate / reverberate causing headaches. Google "chevy shakes".
