I was driving under normal conditions and the vehicle began lurching, limiting acceleration, with an error saying "reduce acceleration". Was able to get home but the next time the truck was started there was a check engine light and the vehicle was unable to shift into reverse gear. When attempting to put it into reverse, it gives the error "conditions not correct to shift" and turn on the parking break. Trying to drive it with this issue is unsafe. The truck will lurch, limit acceleration, and overall not safe to drive. The truck only has 21k miles on it.

Purchased new and after 3 weeks (about 600 miles) I was on highway between 60-70 MPH truck started to shutter like it was losing power and would not accelerate. I complained to the sales person and he stated it ran a little rough when purchased first day - I was told it just needs to warm up. Took truck to dealer and they determined at this time it was a misfire and lifter bank issue. There seems to be an issue widespread - I am not comfortable with car and if on the highway i am not able to accelerate properly or becomes unreliable at the time to accelerate I am worried about safety.

Transmission would not engage reverse gear. Then forward drive gears hard shift and surging. Truck delivered to dealer, inspection revealed a bad valve body. Parts availability unknown. No warning lights or caution lights. Just broke in a parking garage in Aspen Co. I live in south Texas. Truck and travel trailer in Colorado. Truck has 16000 miles. Had this failed two days before we would have been on pikes peak mountain. And the danger of transmission failure going up or down the mountain would have been very dangerous.

when coming to a stop, the truck idols high before slowly going down. Seems unsafe as if is not wanting to stop. I am also hearing a chirping coming from under the hood.

My 2025 Certified Pre-owned, 10 day old truck with approx. 6200 miles, was parked and I was unable to shift into reverse (as if in neutral). I put the truck in drive and entered the highway. About half a mile later, multiple warning lights appeared and the truck slowed, unable to shift out of gear. Luckily, there was a dealership a few miles away so I drove the truck there slowly and on the shoulder as much as possible. Upon inspection at the dealership, they told me that the valve body needed to be replaced. After the repair, which only took a few days, the dealership was test-driving the truck when the powertrain completely seized. They attempted to restart the truck but burned out the starter and fuse block which was also replaced. After a GM engineer gave the mechanics permission, they dropped the transmission to find that it was completely seized and had also seized the engine, though the engine was reportedly not damaged. The entire transmission was replaced and the truck was returned to me with about a month of downtime. This was a clear safety issue as the truck stopped working while on a highway. Luckily, I was in a heavily populated area where help was available. The transmission was returned to GM for further inspection and the repair was fully covered under warranty. Prior to the incident, there were no warning lights/messages, but only appeared after the issue.
