Consumer Description

COMING OFF STEEP HILL AND TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTED TO LOW GEAR, THE ENGINE REVVED UP AND WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT. TRIED GIVING AND LETTING OFF GAS, FINALLY PUT IT IN NEUTRAL TO LET RPM'S GO DOWN AND PUT BACK IN DRIVE AND IT FINALLY SHIFTED ON OUT. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED AND THEY TEST DROVE IT AND SAID THE HILL DESCENT FUNCTION WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY BUT THERE WERE NO RECALLS OR SOFTWARE UPDATE ISSUE AT THIS TIME THAT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. ISSUED COMPLAINT TO CHEVROLET AND THEY SAID THERE WERE NOT ENOUGH COMPLAINTS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AT THIS TIME. VERY FRUSTRATED.
