2017 Chevrolet Silverado Engine Problems

“Recently I have been noticing my Silverado with less then 20,000 miles has had really low oil pressure. Around 15-20 PSI at idle and the transmisson slams into gear,”

“Engine hesitation, or misfiring. Jerking, or transmission shuttering when engine is at low RPM and on incline. (I.e. When traveling about 45mph and start up a hill, the RPM's are about 1300, and the transmission doesn't gear down, so it starts shuttering until you give it more acceleration than usual.) after dealing with this issue for nearly 8 months and 15k miles, I believe this safety issue should be recalled.

When accelerating it surges,jerks and stumbles. Sometimes when accelerating the transmission downshifts and hangs in that gear until you let off the accelerator. Under heavy acceleration there is vibration in the power train and the transmission seem noisy. …”

“In june of 2017, I bought a new Chevrolet Silverado. It runs great no problems. In november 2017 I called to make an appointment to have the oil changed. The service department told me that there is a recall on the chuggle drive quality. The service did what was needed to be done. I had to make a 5-hour trip up north when I noticed that my truck wasn't running like it was before the recall was done. I noticed that the transmission was shifting hard. When the cylinder deactivation went to 4 cylinders the engine lugs. …”
