All I can say is good luck and be happy if you can still drive your vehicle. I bought a brand new '24 Sierra Denali 6.2 in February. Engine light came on April 5th. Total engine failure at 1400 miles. They got a new engine in a week. GM required the radiator be replaced at the same time though and they didn't know how long until they would get one. It's now the middle of June and the dealer says GM SPAC says they have the part but for some reason can't get a delivery date on it. Yeah, they gave me a loaner but I'm sick of paying on a luxury truck that I have driven for less miles than I have on their base Sierra loaner. This is just bad customer service all around.

2023 Sierra 1500 5.3......Service Transmission Soon when shifting into reverse or neutral, on the way to dealership stopped to pick up something SERVICE TRANSMISSION NOW, Will Not Shift Soon.

Dealership tech says that it is the shifter assembly and that it is not currently available, looking at weeks to months so they say.  😞  Had to cancel a camping trip this weekend and now what else is going to be cancelled.

I am in a rental ( dealer provided ) but not the same.

 

Will wait a week until I push the panic button.

I have been waiting on a transmission valve body for a month now. No idea when to expect it. Multiple people waiting for the same part at the same dealership they say. Have had to cancel or change plans since I have a loaner vehicle.

I am in the same boat waiting on a Valve Body 7 weeks ago. Dealer has a new transmission in stock with a new valve body but still waiting no ETA in sight..

I have a 2018 chev silverado. Dealer was doing some unrelated warranty work on it. Removed then improperly re installed my serpentine belt and it blew up on me on the way home. Haven't had my truck in 60 days because there are none to he found anywhere on the planet. GM reached out to the company that makes the belts and they have a list of 40 other people all waiting for the same 4 rib belt. The company is located in eastern Europe and none of us have any idea when they will be built let alone shipped.

 

Only had the truck for 5 months. Asked the dealership if they'd buy it back and they said the best they could do is 8 grand less than I paid for it.... Sweet.

Sounds like a phone call to Chevy Customer Service and your local Attorney General's office are in order. Then find an attorney.

This doesn't sound right to me. Have you tried NAPA or Rock Auto or Gates or other aftermarket parts suppliers? You don't need a GM belt. Just a suitable replacement belt. There must be thousands of replacement belts for an 18 Silverado.

I agree. 2018 with 5.3l plenty on Rock Auto including ACDelco.

Hi my name is Michael and I am having this problem with my 2024 Chevy silverado 1500 Duramax, the stater was damaged and with only 3,870 miles, my car has been on the dealer since July 3rd, 2024, two months exactly today and part is on back order,

Not related to trucks, bought a new model Kawasaki side by side and a part for the plow I was just told will be here end of year. That's 6 months to get if it shows up. 

We could get snow soon in the mountains of Colorado, end of September last year we got snow.

That seems insane for a starter.

In my mind manufacturers should be accountable  for providing parts in a timely manner. In my case, I have my truck setup for work with all the right accessories.  Not really wanting to drive a loaner without that.

The easiest way to hold them accountable is to stop buying from them. Hyundai or GM. I know given the refusal to replace the entire set of lifters on my first failure, and no subsequent failure, this will be my first and last GM product. I have never dealt with such incompetence when it comes to repair and doing things right the first time.

I’m paying $1000 a month for a Sierra Denali and can’t get it back from the shop because they can’t get a part for my bumper. They’re saying it could be months. At what point do I just stop paying the lease?

I purchased a used 2023 GMC Sierra 2500 4x4 in July of this year. 50,000 miles on it. I drove it for 5000 miles and then all of the sudden, it went into reduced power mode. Read the codes and hometown dealership informed me it needs a new automatic transmission valve body. This was in August 2024. They told me the part is on backorder with not eta. I was told to disconnect the negative leads on both batteries; wait about ten minutes; then reconnect to reset the computer. That worked the first 12 times. I checked today, the part remains on backorder and they have another vehicle needing the same part. It’s very frustrating trying to get to work when can only do 45 mph on major highway. And now it sounds and feels like the transmission and power tran is about to fall out. No offer for a rental or loaner. Come on GM get it together.

    • I agree, simplicity and reliability matter more as vehicles get more complicated. A V8 work truck option with fewer electronic features and a stronger warranty would definitely appeal to a lot of buyers who use their trucks for real work. Customizing it with trusted outfitters is often the best way to get exactly what you need.webcrimsNY
    • I’ve heard similar complaints from newer vehicles where the factory “premium” systems don’t always live up to expectations. A good installer should be able to improve the sound without turning it into a bass-heavy setup. I’d look into upgrading the front speakers, adding a quality DSP amplifier, and possibly improving sound deadening first—those changes usually make a much bigger difference than just adding a subwoofer. Hopefully someone local can recommend a reputable installer in the Las Vegas/St. George area.
    • Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.  
    • The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.  
    • Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
