Potential Consequences:
They sold me a vehicle at the dealer. Three days after I bought it, I had to buy tires for it. Because they were in bad condition, they also charged me for a liquid called 3m nitro and I don't understand why they put it in if the tires were in bad condition, and they also promised to fix some details on the bumper and details on the paint on the body of the truck, and the transmission has already started to fail, and they don't want to help me or take responsibility. The truck still has a Dealer warranty.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Wires were improperly installed during assembly, on truck and rubs on a frame which chafes, which causes the protective covering to get rubbed off causing a short circuit on my wiring harness which causes the "check engine light" to stay on constantly. This is a factory mistake yet they want to charge me for the fix. I also have come to know this is getting too common on Chevy Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierras. GM needs to correct their factory defect for free. This chafing can happen in three different areas on the trucks. These shorted wires can cause failure of the fuel pumps and leave you on the road when the engine shuts down. GM knows about these problems but has not acted on this problem. they never mentioned or noted the wiring problem on my repair summary, Oct. 23, 24, when they were replacing the torque converter. They showed it to me, but never made note of it. They are going to work on it Monday 12/9/24, I will talk of, who's going to cover the cost of this after it's repaired.

Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
Pulling an enclosed trailer with my 2019 Chevy PU. Stopped at a gas station and discovered the tailgate had dropped down while driving. Making the turn into the gas station with the trailer in tow creased the tailgate considerably by the jack on the trailer. Thankfully nothing was noticed missing from the truck bed that was needed for our trip. Very unhappy for the faulty tailgate opening while traveling. Request contact for repair as I see there are recalls on this matter but not my truck when indeed it did happen.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
When I bought the truck it only had 82 miles on it. After owning it for about a month it was shifting very hard at times. So hard it felt like I was being hit from behind. I complained to the dealership and they told me "that's normal for those". I learned how to drive it to avoid the problem. At 52000 miles I had the dealership do the routine transmission service that is due @ 45,000. The truck was fine when I took it in. When I got it back it was shifting extremely hard and erratically. It would downshift and accelerate by itself. On wet roads it would fishtail and I would almost lose control. It did this in traffic and I almost slid into oncoming traffic. While pulling away from a stop sign, the transmission slipped so bad the engine revved to 5000 rpm before catching. Then the check engine light came on. I took the truck to the dealership the next morning and they checked it out. They said it needs a new transmission. They also said it was my fault for going past the recommended service interval by 14%. Now they say a new transmission is going to cost $12,582.78. GM has agreed to pay half of that but they have known about these transmissions for years and they kept selling them anyway. My truck was not showing any unusual signs that the transmission was failing until I got it back from the dealership after they serviced it.
