Consumer Description

ON JULY 29, 2015, WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY DOWNSHIFTED ITSELF INTO FIRST GEAR CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SLOW DOWN SUDDENLY WITH NO NOTICE. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD AND INTO A GAS STATION. AFTER THE FACT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THE TCM (TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE) NEEDED REPLACING AND THAT THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS YEAR TRUCK. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION TO HAVE YOUR VEHICLE SUDDENLY SLOW DOWN WHILE DRIVING AT SPEED. IF GM KNOWS THAT THE PART IS FAULTY WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL? WILL IT TAKE MULTIPLE DEATHS BEFORE GM TAKES RESPONSIBILITY?
