My 2019 Silverado's transmisson jerks when slowwing to stop for a traffic light. Anyone have this problem or have it fixed?  Thanks

My 2021 5.3, 8 speed does this for about two days, every 500 miles. I had my dealer witness it last week and they made an appointment to diagnose the problem. I spent 4 hours waiting and they came back and said they could not tell me what the issue is. They said the will discuss this with GM and to come back for a second appointment. I have owned only GM products since buying my first car, a  Chevrolet, in 1964. GM started selling Hydramatic transmissions in 1939, in the Oldsmobile. The 8L90 transmission is in the 7th year of production. There is no excuse for this!  Despite being a Chevrolet judge, and a long time member of the Vintage Chevrolet Club of America, if they don't repair or replace this transmission, I will never purchase another GM product again. I think that perhaps next time, if this issue is not resolved, I will try a Chrysler Ram.  I hope that the GM executives read this because, if they don't support their long time customers, they will loose many more to Ford, Ram and sadly foreign companies like Toyota.

Thanks and keep me posted on your issue and resolution. They have been having these problems with the transmissions in the Corvettes as well for the last few years and have not corrected the problem.

I spent another half day at the dealer with my 2021 Silverado. The service writer and the technician have both driven the truck and acknowledge the issue,  but say they don't know how to fix it. GM refuses to replace the transmission, or even admit that 2020 and 2021 have any issues.  This would not have happened at the old GM I grew up with.

    • Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
    • Correct.  2019-2021 model years are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.  Recall 2021s use 19420611.   The recall engines 2022-2024 model years are serviced with 12740076.     The difference between 19420611 and 12740076 is GM changed injector size for 2022.  The injectors are smaller on 12740076 with smaller injector bores in the cylinder heads to match the smaller injectors.  So you can't install a 19420611 in a 2022-2024, and you can't install a 12740076 in a 2019-2021.     Both engines are the replacement engine p/ns that are in the L87 recall.  So both of these are the updated engines.     Here's a version of the L87 recall with the p/ns for all the parts needed.    RCRIT-25V274-7075.pdf   Note it shows 19420611 and 12740076 with an asterisk to a footnote "Use the VIN and the GM Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) to determine which part to order if two or more part numbers are listed for the same part, as it may vary by vehicle options."    
    • Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.  
    • Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.
