Consumer Description

STEADY DRIVING BETWEEN 35 AND 65 MPH, THE TRUCK SHUDDERS AND THE RPM TACH NEEDLE JUMPS. IT DOES NOT DO IT WHILE SHIFTING BUT WHEN RUNNING AT A STEADY SPEED. MY 4TH TIME AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE ONLY FOCUSED ON THE VIBRATION OF THE TRUCK AND ARE NOW REPLACING THE THIRD TIRE. I AGREE THE VIBRATION IS BAD BUT THE SHUDDERING IS RIDICULOUS. THERE IS A TECHNICAL BULLETIN FOR THE SILVERADO WITH THE 6.2 TRANSMISSION WITH THE EXACT SAME ISSUES. I CALLED THE SERVICE TECH WHO HAS MY TRUCK AND HE SAID "YOUR TRUCK DOESN'T HAVE THAT TRANSMISSION." I SAID "I REALIZE THAT RICH...HOWEVER IT IS THE SAME ISSUE." HE SAID AS SOON AS THEY GET THE NEW TIRE IN THEY ARE GOING TO TEST DRIVE IT SOME MORE. DID I MENTION THEY HAVE HAD IT FIVE DAYS THIS TIME AND THEY STILL DON'T HAVE A TIRE. ALSO...ACCORDING TO THE TECHNICAL BULLETIN #PIP5337D, THE SHUDDER IS TORQUE CONVERTER. *TR
