WHEN PUTTING VEHICLE IN DRIVE FROM PARK IT JUMPS FORWARD EVEN WITH FOOT ON THE BRAKE. WHEN GOING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE IT FEELS LIKE THE VEHICLE IS NOT IN GEAR AND THEN ENGAGES AND THEN THE VEHICLE MAKES A CLUNK NOISE AND ABRUPTLY JUMPS FORWARD. THERE IS ALSO A ISSUE WHEN GOING FROM FIRST TO SECOND WHEN ACCELERATING AND THE SAME WHEN DOWNSHIFTING. THE TRANSMISSION ON THIS VEHICLE IS VERY ERRATIC IN NATURE, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT IT IS GOING TO DO EVERY TIME YOU DRIVE IT. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE THE FIRST 100 MILES AND I NOW HAVE 8600 AND STILL HAPPENING. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THEY COULD NOT GET IT TO REPEAT THE ISSUE EVEN AFTER LETTING IT SIT OUTSIDE IN 20 DEGREE WEATHER TO COOL EVERYTHING DOWN.

REPEATED ATTEMPTS BY JONES CHEVY, SUMTER SC, THEY HAVE NOT IDENTIFIED THE VIBRATION PROBLEMS WITH MY NEW VEHICLE. 22+ DAYS IN REPAIR, MULTIPLE VISITS, AND GM CLASSIFIES HARSH VIBRATION AS "NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC" AND CLOSED THE CASE, SAYING ITS FINAL. I HAVE CONTACTED GM CEO WITH CERTIFIED LETTER, DISCUSSED WITH EXEC. CUSTOMER SUPPORT TEAM, AND POSTED ON SOCIAL MEDIA TO FIND ANY SOLUTION. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE IS THE WORSE I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED. SO FAR DEALER HAS CONDUCTED TRANSMISSION DRAIN AND FLUSH PER A TSB, CHANGED TORQUE CONVERTER, EVALUATED VIBRATION WITH PICO SCOPE, AND PROBLEM STILL EXISTS AND PERSIST. NOW TODAY IT'S BACK AT DEALER FOR A PROP SHAFT SWAP, FROM A NEW TRUCK. MY VEHICLE NOW HAS 6K MILES, AND PROBLEM STARTED AT 5K AFTER THE DRAIN AND FLUSH. GM SAYS THE VIBRATION IS NORMAL BECAUSE OF THE DFM, DYNAMIC FUEL MGMT. SYSTEM. I SAY BS. THEY ARE WRONG, AND NO VEHICLE SHOULD VIBRATE AT LOW OR HIGH SPEED TO THE POINT YOU FEEL IT THROUGH THE SEAT, STEERING COLUMN, STEERING WHEEL AND HARMONIC DISTORTION IN THE CAB. GM KNOWS WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, THEY JUST DON'T WANT TO ADMIT. NEXT STEP, ARBRITRATION? ANY FEEDBACK IS MUCH APPRECIATED TO SOLVE THIS VIBRATION ISSUE. GM - DO THE RIGHT THING AND ISSUE A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. REMEMBER THE IGNITION PROBLEM? THIS PROBLEM ISN'T GOING AWAY.

THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER TIMES THAT I HAVE BEEN AT A STOP SIGN AND I GO TO TAKE OFF AND THE ENGINE REVS UP AS I HIT THE GAS BUT IT IS NOT IN GEAR AND THEN ABRUPTLY SNAPS INTO GEAR, CAUSING THE TIRES TO ACTUALLY SQUEAL. SO THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED WHEN THE TRUCK IS STILL MOVING AND ALSO WHEN IT WAS AT A STOP SIGN AND NOT IN MOTION,

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND BRAKE PRESSURE PROBLEMS. THE AUTOMATION TRANSMISSION JERKS WHEN ACCELERATING FROM ZERO MILES PER HOUR OR AT LOW SPEEDS. IT CAN DRAMATICALLY INCREASE THE RATE OF AN INCIDENT DUE TO THE POWERFUL MOVEMENT THAT THE MOVEMENT DOES TO THE WHOLE TRUCK. YOU CAN THEN FEEL THE WHOLE TRUCK SWAY BACK AND FOURTH DUE TO THE IMPACT. THIS "JERKING" FROM THE START CAN INCREASE THE RISK OF HITTING ANYTHING IN FRONT OF YOU BECAUSE OF IT NOT BEING CONTROLLED PROPERLY WHEN MOVING IN CLOSE PROXIMITY AREAS SUCH AS HIGH VOLUME TRAFFIC AREAS, HIGH COUNTS OF PEDESTRIANS WALKING ACROSS THE STREET, PARALLEL PARKING, AND PARKING CLOSE TO ANOTHER CAR IN FRONT OF YOU OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF OBJECT IN FRONT OF YOU. THE BRAKE APPLICATIONS TAKE AN EXTREME AMOUNT OF PRESSURE TO STOP THE VEHICLE AT ALL GIVEN TIMES. MY TRUCK IS BRAND NEW AND PURCHASED ON 9/18/2019.
