8 Speed Transmission Recall?

[seniorjumper82]

Anyone had their transmission replaced under GM Program# 2044120? Talked to dealer about this today and GM is not replacing parts but the whole transmission. I set up an appointment and asked if mine really needed it as it seems to not have any issues. Of course they said I should and would take a couple of days. Suppose to drop off Monday morning.

did you receive a recall notice or take the truck in for service under warranty?

Interested as well. Any details about this? Is it a TSB or full recall? Production date range?

This is nothing new, been policy since the 8-sp was introduced. Dealers are not to open them up for repairs.

What is the problem? Recall number?

[seamus2154]

I have a 2015 denali w. the 8 speed and it has already had a new torque converter. Now i still have the delayed engagement upon start up. They issued this #16-NA-014, which states they will install a new stator shaft?? This is the issue I have now. I wasn't' crazy about them opening my trans. Are you sure and saying they will not open it up just replace it???? Is there a TSB or something written.

 

Thanks

They sure do... just had the stator tsb done and they took it all apart and put it back together again. I even have the work order to prove it lol.

The transmission is currently on exchange through the GM Product Quality Center (PQC). No transmission repairs, internal or external, are allowed at this time. If diagnosis has determined the need for any repair to the transmission, contact the PQC to discuss the information/diagnostics that led to the need to repair the transmission assembly before performing any repairs.

That's nice... also totally out of date and completely irrelevant.... research the stator tsb... yes dealers dismantle the transmission.. end of story.

Nothing in the mail. Checked for recall with my Chevrolet app and popped up. GM program #2044120 date issued Jun 21,2016.

Program title: Cracked 2-3-4-6-8 Clutch Piston

 

Program description: Certain 2016 model year Cadillac CT6, Chevrolet Silverado LD and GMC Sierra LD vehicles, equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission, may have a condition in which the 2-3-4-6-8 Clutch Piston is out of specification. Parts exhibited a crack condition as cast after machining. As a result the vehicle could exhibit 1-2 up shift slipping ot a flaring condition.

 

Safety Risk Description: The Vehicle could exhibit 1-2 up shift slipping or a flaring condition.

 

Repair Description: Replace the transmission.

 

This is all I have information wise. Dealer confirmed I would get a entirely brand new transmission. I'll keep you all posted.

What is a "flaring condition?"

[redneck47441]

What is a "flaring condition?"

Where it runs up to a certain RPM to demand a shift then right before the shift it jumps a couple RPM before the shift.

Humm interesting, my dealer just ordered a new TC for my truck.

[ChevyRoofer]

Is there anyway we can confirm that we are eligible for this recall of the transmission?

I still have the delayed engagement when I start my vehicle and put from park to drive.
