Consumer Description
The transmission is defective. Bucks, jumps, and hard shifts decelerating or accelerating. I drive for cancer treatments with my kids and grandchildren. Monday we were almost unable to make it home. Inability to accelerate to merge onto interstate. So hard and loud we thought the transmission was going to fall out in the tunnel. After researching I noticed Gm has a pending class action lawsuit for the issue. Dealership kept telling me it was the spark plug wires and plugs. Replaced twice to no avail. I noticed there are issues reported for the Tahoe and the traverse. Even though these two vehicles are not listed in the lawsuit; the Tahoe 4wd has the same v8 engine as the Sierra, Escalade, and Silverado. This is a major safety issue . Regardless of a legal loophole of design vs defect or materials.
