Quick heads up. No dealership is gonna be interested in fixing anything. You'll get better customer service and satisfaction by going to Taco Bell.

Mine has been to the dealership four times with a shudder. (3 different dealers)   They say it's normal.  This is my last GM product. I can't stand driving my new truck

@nichos I think I’ve been having the same problem on my 2019 Silverado 1500 5.3L V8- getting worse/more frequent the last month or two.
 

Did you get the Trans fluid flush done and have any benefit? 
 

Hoping I can get away with just the TSB that @Silverado4x4 mentions there.

 

thanks in advance!

@Garystruder I think it did for a while but the problem came back. I took it in at the start of the year since I knew my 60k powertrain was expiring. The dealer said it would be covered and GM would rebuild it for free.

 

I was fortunate though, the dealer included a 100k warranty when I bought the truck and I was able to get a new transmission (see this thread: https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/263709-2020-chevrolet-silverado-1500-8-speed-shudder/#comment-2647696 )

 

Anyway, I have the new transmission, I wouldn't say it's smooth, but the shudder is definitely gone. Still had shift when she's cold.

 

Good luck!

I experience the same thing a high frequency vibration. It’s not at a severe level yet I was concerned. I took my truck into the local Chevy garage. The service manager said it was due the torque converter. He wanted to replace the fluid in the transmission. He said that might help. $675 later with new fluid the high frequency vibration comes and goes as before. 
I’m planning a 2,000+ mile trip over Christmas. I’m concerned regarding possible transmission failure on the trip. The truck is a 4 door with a 5.3 liter engine - 4x4 of course. The truck has 130,000 plus miles on it.

Same deal.  2019 with 5.3L at 44k miles and started to experience a slight shudder at about 25mph with gradual acceleration.  I use a Range device to disable DFM.  Brought it in and had the Tranny flush....seems to have made a difference.  Do not have any symptoms afterwards and keeping fingers crossed.   Dealership was quick to point out either the Tech Bulletin for Tranny Flush or TC issue.

I have been having this problem for the longest time! I have had several dials ran on it and nothing. Came across this thread and it looks like there is a TSB?! I thought GM service centers were supposed to check these when you bring your truck in for service?! I’m shocked at this discovery. I could have some serious damage happening to my truck and GM has failed to send me ANY letter of any sort stating there is a TSB! GM, please reach out to me to help come to an amicable resolution for both of us. I love my truck, 2019 Silverado Z71 RST, affectionately named “A10 Warthog”.

Just brought my truck in to another service shop. Shudder is so bad…they recommend an entire transmission swap!!! How on earth can that be?! GM…if you’re reading this, would love to hear how we can work together to resolve this without lawyers.

      That sir is a choice. And even if it were not for all the reasons stated, this disruption has zero to do with the reality of the actual logistics and everything to do with the greed of SPECULATION. Spot price is irrelevant to reality.

      What I think you're saying is there is supply here at home, and in Venezuela, and we could ease pricing if only it were favorable to do so.   Well, yes?   But that's not the current market. Supply isn't what could someday exist, if only, it's what producers are willing to produce and sell at a certain price point.   The national price of single family homes would come way down if we'd just slap together a few million homes this summer.   RAM and GPUs would get a lot cheaper if we just set up some factories to produce a bunch more and stopped using it to build out AI data centers.

      The turn signal/multifunction switch is faulty.  I've seen a few of these go bad at work.

      If we actually used any significant amount of that source in the USA then I'd agree but we don't. We've had that discussion before. We drill and pump more than we use. Thing is, we sell. We export. Gas and Crude. It's more profitable so any shortage here is self inflicted and LEGAL.    I worked a gas plant that has multiple fuel sources available and I worked in the furnace and boiler plant in that facility. I'd had days we swapped fuel types four times in a twelve hour shift which isn't done on supply but on margin. Two of the fuel sources are internally generated. Tail gas and DAK, both of which are sold as well a consumed. We always had more than we needed to run the process but we chose the fuel that produced the best margin not bought at the cheapest price always. A good bit of math to that and back in the time that was done on a slide rule.     I worked the Shale Oil Semiworks of Chevron Research and CONOCO Research in Salt Lake City. That process never went into production although it was very successful. Why? Did we lack oil bearing shale? Nope. Price of crude never made the margins work. That was in the late 70's early 80's. Remember history? What was happening then was a reaction to that situation. It didn't drive it. If so then it's easy. This isn't a supply and demand thing. This is a profit and margin thing and AI rules that now.    In no refining situation that I was ever in would a bomb hitting a well anywhere in the world 'instantly' interrupt or even distress the supply. Most plants have more than a months worth of crude in the tank field and more in pumping stations. That yo-yo could play out over days, weeks and maybe months and have zero impact on plant operations. How many times has this been off and on in the last few months? These people and not stupid. These plants measure down time in hundreds of thousands of dollars per day. They are not sucking fumes or waiting on the next truckload with baited breath. Besides, as I noted, they are for the most part 'vertically integrated'. They own it from the dirt is sits in to the delivery rack and sometimes to the pump. It has a HUGE shock absorber built in. When production suffers, refining wins and when refining is winning exploration is killing. The rest of that crap in the news is a 'news cycle'. Government dipping in to reserves? Oil is stealing their milk money. There's a reason Chevron abandon Venezuela infrastructure and it had nothing to do with security of US citizens. Nationals run those plants. it has to do with MARGINS disappearing to corruption. They are in no hurry to return. Is there supply there? Oh yea. More than enough to offset what is bought in the middle east. Just isn't ???? Profitable.    We have supply. There are places in Illinois you can drive a pipe into the ground and run your homes natural gas furnace on it.    A refinery fire will gum up the supply works but not a localized war where the market is using a limited supply from. Now Europe, that's something other....
