POWER TRAIN

Potential Consequences:

WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM A LOW SPEED, MAYBE 20 MPH OR LESS, THE TRANSMISSION OFTEN DOES NOT DELIVER ANY POWER TO THE DRIVE WHEELS (THE MOTOR REVS UP BUT THE VEHICLE DOES NOT ACCELERATE). ALSO, WHEN CLIMBING A HILL AT NORMAL ROAD SPEEDS THE TRANSMISSION OFTEN DOES NOT DOWN SHIFT, TO THE POINT WHERE THE MOTOR ALMOST STALLS, AND THE FEW TIMES THAT IT DOES DOWN SHIFT THERE IS AN EXPLOSIVE INCREASE IN ENGINE RPMS RESULTING IN AN ALMOST UNCONTROLLABLE BURST OF VEHICLE SPEED. CHEVROLET SAYS THIS IS THE WAY IT'S DESIGNED TO WORK. IF IT IS, IT'S THE FIRST VEHICLE I'VE SEEN, OR EVEN HEARD ABOUT, THAT DOES THESE DANGEROUS THINGS.

POWER TRAIN

Potential Consequences:

CHEVY 2016 COLORADO Z71 V6 WITH A 6 SPEED AUTOMATIC: THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT SHIFT UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION OR WHEN UNDER LOAD GOING UP A HILL. THE TRUCK HESITATES SEEMS TO MISS AND DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO TO GET IT SO ACCELERATE! IT ALSO HAS THIS ISSUE WHEN LIFTING MY FOOT ON THE GAS WHEN ROLLING THROUGH A CORNER AND THEN HITTING THE ACCELERATOR. THEN I HAVE TO PUSH THE ACCELERATOR HARD TO MAKE THE TRANSMISSION UP SHIFT 2 GEARS TO MAKE THE TRUCK ACCELERATE! THIS IS FRUSTRATING AND DANGEROUS AS IT COULD CAUSE BEING HIT FROM BEHIND WHEN THE TRUCK DOES NOT ACCELERATE AS IT SHOULD. I TOOK MY TRUCK BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THREE TIMES AND THEY SAID 'THERE ARE NO CODES, THERE SEEMS TO BE NOTHING WRONG THE COMPUTER DOESN'T KNOW WHETHER TO STAY IN THAT GEAR OR UP SHIFT 1 GEAR OR 2. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS TO PUSH DOWN HARDER ON THE ACCELERATOR AND LEARN TO DRIVE WITH A SMART TRANSMISSION.' MY REPLY WAS 'I AM NOT PART OF THE VEHICLE SENSOR SYSTEM AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO LEARN HOW TO DRIVE TO A POOR SHIFTING SITUATION ESPECIALLY WHEN I AM PAYING THIS MUCH FOR A NEW VEHICLE.' GM SHOULD BE FORCED TO FIX THIS VERY COMMON PROBLEM BEFORE SOMETHING SERIOUS HAPPENS AS A RESULT OF THIS!
