2002 Chevrolet Chevrolet Truck Transmission and drivetrain Problems

“The gear position sensor on the side of the allison transmission failed in traffic during rainy conditions causing the transmission to quit working. I was able to get to the side of the road and get the transmission to shift into default second and make it to a repair shop where I got the part replaced hopefully with an improved part. My truck is a 2002 Chevrolet k2500.”

“I purchased vehicle used with 11500 miles on it from a used car dealership here in monroe, louisiana. I received notification of a faulty tailgate cable and fuel filter for the 6.6 duramax diesel. I scheduled an appointment with the local dealership and had this taken care off. When I was at the dealership I met a construction company owner and he saw me drive up in the truck. He asked if I have had any trouble with the fuel injections. I advised him I have not noticed any difference in the fuel economy or leaking fuel. He had three duramax diesels and all of them had fuel injection problems. …”

“My husband was driving home, heard a loud pop and the transmission failed - would not go in reverse, made a loud noise even in neutral and park. After tearing down the transmission, found that the reaction sunshell had gone bad. I found that several different mechanics/dealerships have repaired this problem in an unusually high volume. Updated part issued but no recall. Truck has just over 60000 miles - just out of warranty. Have to make payment of $1600 to have fixed. Getting the runaround from GM. Purchased the truck used just 10 months ago from a certified GM used car dealer. …”

“I bought my truck used in january 2004, at exactly 51,000 miles truck made a loud pop underneath while turning on road. I lost my reverse, second and overdrive gears. 1st works okay, and sometimes it would jump into 3rd. Havn't drove the truck since then and my dealer expects me to pay a diagnostic fee and price for transmission. I have had the truck, about 13 months. I am contacting GM to see what they tell me. I have so far seen numerous complaints with this same problem. The sun reaction shell. Gm bulletin says that the shell wasnt heat treated enough in 2002 years and will break. …”

“Vehicle wouldn't drive over 15 MPH as if I lost all of my torque. Mechanic looked at vehicle to see what was wrong and found out multiple issues including: front and rear brakes barely working, master cylinders messed up, oil leaks, transmission leaks, coolant leaks, control arms have rusted out on both sides but we're welded (which makes them weaker) I've broken down 4 times in a week in this vehicle but my contractor in its in me driving it.”
