Consumer Description

Transmission is very erratic to shift, especially when cold. Sometime, when pressing the accelerator, the car hesitates before moving forward. This can be dangerous at intersections with oncoming traffic. The transmission was inspected by a Chevy dealer right after the car was purchased (09/2017) and parts replaced. The symptoms still happen. It was inspected again 01/2023 by a Chevy dealer and the transmission fluid flushed. The symptoms still happen regularly. GM is aware of this dangerous issue, yet nothing has been done to correct the problem.
