2016 Colorado Transmission problem???

[tjmetro5]

Purchased my 2016 Chevrolet Colorado LT March 5 2016. Drove it home and returned a week later to have dealer put on hitch & wiring for towing my small boat. Picked up truck and everything great. Before getting a chance to tow my boat I stared having problems on the morning of March 18, 2016 with 300 miles on truck. After coming to a stop and then trying to accelerate, the transmission violently kicks into gear and takes off. A low clunk is heard. I went straight to dealer and a salesperson drove with me and confirmed the problem. We then drove back to the service dept. and a mechanic test drove the truck and confirmed my complaint but did not have a clue to what was the cause. I left the truck for them to troubleshoot. I called them 4 days later and they told me it was possibly some kind of valve in or attached to the transmission or drive line. They ordered the part and I will update my post once I get the truck back.

Sounds like typical GM transmissions. Clunking, late shifts, etc. My '07 has a very noticeable clunk going into 3rd gear, (Could be driveline). I just don't care anymore. Hopefully you can get it straightened out.

 

Let us know!

Picked up my truck yesterday after it spent 10 days at the dealership. They told me it took some time to find the parts. So far no problems. See attachment for details of work performed..

Sounds like you got a good mechanic who looks for details, keep that guy in your speed dial for the future!
