2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Power Train

I hit my brakes to avoid an accident in multiple -5 degree weather and my trucks transmission shuttered and failed to work. This truck was running very strong before this unexpected event. Chevy owners should not have to pay for this out of pocket. Thank you

Vehicle is shifting extremely hard vehicle has 115*** miles. If the transmission fails in the interstate it can cause a major accident or even death Multiple owners have the same issue with faulty components related to the transmission no warning lights on the dash the hard shifting gets worse as the transmission temp gets hotter

Why is/was there no investigation in to the torque converters in these vehicles? I have the 5.3L V8. Took it to a tranny shop and he has five on his lot, same transmission same generation all same issue. He says they start eating themselves and he has a few with only five digit mileage that he still needs to fix. A guy in my firehouse is a parts manager for a Chevy dealership and knows the part number for the transmission off the top of his head because they fly through them and he has 19 in stock. Luckily I'm a good driver and when the transmission gave out on the highway I was able to control and get over without my kids getting hurt. But that is two shops confirming this is an issue. It's a safety issue. An expensive safety issue. There's even a tranny guy on Facebook that says the same thing because these are mostly all he works on. I'm a bit shocked you all allowed this to pass through. Granted the shop said the American made parts in the torque converters are the ones failing, so it would look bad. But my kids could have been hurt if my wife was driving and couldn't control the truck. This is an epic failure. Five digit mileage trucks coming in for the same issue. He told me to keep up whatever maintenance I'm doing because coming in at 130k is the second highest he has seen.

While driving on the interstate my truck starting slowing down fast and the engine RPM's went up. I pulled to the side and restarted the truck i would start driving then the truck would do the exact same thing. While all this was happening there was a burning smell in the truck. I brought the truck to an automotive mechanic and the found the transmission was bad. It is a very common problem with 2014 silverado 1500 trucks with the 6 speed transmission.

Transmission failure. At 140,000 miles, metal flakes in the pan. This could cause an accident and I've done some research and found multiple people with this same issue between 2012 and 2016. Also, a transmission shouldn't be needing to change at this amount of miles. Also, I bought this vehicle used with this problem.

The automatic shifting gears from v4 to v8 is causing a hard shift, now the vehicle will not go into v4 at all

The transmission at less then 150,000 miles grinds and causes a vibration through the steering wheel. It is available for inspection if need be. There was no sign of this failure before it happened. It has made the truck unsafe to operate because of it were to fail it would cause a complete loss of power to the drive shaft, and currently is causing intermittent power loss to the drive shaft. It has been inspected by a local Chevrolet dealership as well as an independent transmission shop that both confirmed the torque converter has begun to fail. The local dealership as well as the transmission shop have both stated they have had a large number of trucks with the same issue come in over the last year. The service manager at the dealership even informed me that there should be a recall put out for the issue. I have even put in a complaint to GM and there was nothing done about the issue. I went back and forth with them for months

Don't get gears skipping gear

Going into neutral on its own almost causing a accident and slipping. Yes inspected by service department. No warning

#1. 2 days after purchase left rear tire was replaced because of out of round #2. 11/2/21 rear brake pads and rotors were worn to the metal replaced by ourisman Chevrolet #3. 7/14 /22 front struts leaking where replaced by Eds body and paint #4. 10/11/22 rear axle pinion seal, transfer case front output shaft seal, oil pan all leaking replaced by jba Chevrolet #5. 11/3/23 front differential leak and coolant hose leak not replaced. Dealership claimed (in writing 11/25/22) upgrade to warranty to cover repairs but was denied by warranty company

The transmission and transfer case malfunctioned and then failed. It was out in 4wd low to grab a trailer out of our field and I pulled back onto the driveway, put the truck back into neutral, and lost all gears. The truck wouldn’t shift or move at all. Purchased a transfer case motor and installed, but the truck would barely move so I hauled it to a shop for further inspection. Upon inspection of the vehicle I was told that the transmission needs replacing. When the truck initially stopped shifting out of neutral it rolled down the hill and I had to run after it before it hit my fiancé and dog. The vehicle has not been inspected by anyone other than myself and the certified technicians at the shop I towed it to. There were no warning lamps or messages or anything else until after the new transfer case motor was installed at the shop. Then the “service 4wd” warning came on. The truck will now shift itself into neutral when it is driven.

When I attempt to speed up or slow down my truck hesitates, and it's followed by a significant shake, like a shudder, and sometimes it just jerks, or clunks, like it's doing a very “hard shift” when the automatic transmission changes the gears. Sometimes it shifts so violently, I feel like I got hit by another vehicle. I've also tried to accelerate into traffic, and the truck hesitate and then abruptly and violently jerks into gear. It creates a big traffic safety issue! Other times the transmission shifts gears so hard that it slams the truck forward, and makes feels like I've been rear-ended.

I had been driving for about 45 minutes. When I was driving and hit a speed of 50 mph, it felt like my truck was on a bumpy road and I could hear the banging and feel the hesitation and shakes. Then it felt like I was being hit by another vehicle at low speed. When I slowed down below 50, it seemed to have stopped. But when I stopped to get gas it started back up again. Because I was at least 30 miles from home, I called my husband and he told me to drive back home immediately. It seems to be getting worse and at lower speeds. This is my only source of transportation as I am disabled and cannot afford the ridiculous amount they want to just diagnose it.

The torque converter has failed and less then 200,000 miles. It has caused damage to valves in the transmission. It is only on the 6L80 transmissions from GM. I have had Coleman Taylor which is a transmission shop in Tennessee look at it. They have informed me that it is the most common issue they see with that particular transmission before the failure should occur. I have spoken to multiple people with Chevrolet Silverado trucks with varying years from 2014- 2018 having to have transmissions rebuilt or replaced as soon as 70,000 miles all the way up to 150,000 for the same failure. The safety concern for myself and others on the road is the transmission can suddenly lock up due to the transmission failing. I have spoken with express Chevrolet in Covington TN the service department informed myself that there was no active recall but they feel that there should be. There was no warning that this was going to happen. The truck and transmission are sitting at my home currently and available for inspection at your earliest convenience

The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle shuddered. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where unknown repairs were performed on the transmission; however, the failure recurred. The contact stated that while driving at 85 MPH, the transmission downshifted, and the engine made an abnormal sound. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, who performed unknown repairs; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who replaced the torque converter. After driving the vehicle approximately 2,000 miles, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the independent mechanic, who replaced the torque converter again. The torque converter was replaced four times; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact related the failure to the NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V374000 (Power Train). The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

While driving at highway speeds at about 73mph the rear end of the truck will shake and has caused the rear end to start to fishtail while still driving straight is the road is even slightly wet.

Vehicle less than 150,000 miles and transmission hasn't held up. Vehicle isn't driven hard its my daily driver to work. Transmission temperature exceeding 200 degrees on a short drive, hard shifting into 1,2,3,4 gears. I have done my research looking into other people that have had this trouble and it has become a well known problem with these vehicles. Everyone is experiencing trouble from the torque converters to the gears, and clutches. Its terrible that we are spending 10's of thousands of dollars on a vehicle that will not even hold up to 150,000 miles. These transmissions needs to be recalled and replaced. I have also done further extensive research that shows that from the GM Bulletin you can find documentation that shows that the 6L80 transmissions have problems with this exact issue. This Bulletin was published in June of 2020. If GM has listed 13 different models of 6L80 transmissions in different vehicles that are having such problems. Why hasn't this been recalled to make it right to the customers who have these vehicles. We are being ripped of our hard earned money and left with vehicles that are extremely expensive to have repaired or forced to let them go back or have no option but to trade it in and still be left with lots to pay on these vehicles.

Transmission quit working at 125195 miles. When I called around to Chevy dealers, this is a common problem for this particular year and model. Dealer said it would cost close to $7,000 to replace with a different transmission to resolve the problem. They did not put the same make/model transmission into the truck - they put a different one due to the issues the original transmissions are having. We spent a significant amount of money to get the transmission REPLACED. The transmission needed to replace the bad one was on backorder - due to the demands. I personal feel that Chevy should have recalled the bad transmission and the cost of the repairs should have been covered by the manufacturer. I am a woman and this could have been very dangerous had the transmission quit on the highways in Portland, Oregon while commuting to or from work. Please look into this. I would like Chevy to reimburse us for the repairs we paid. I have an invoice of $4,690. Thankfully it quit a few blocks from my home. I had to have the truck towed to the dealer. That was an additional expense.

Transmission failed because of faulty torque converter at roughly 95,000 miles. Now the same failure has occurred at 115,000 miles. This type of failure is unsafe if it were to happen in heavy traffic or crossing an intersection. GM refuses to acknowledge the issue and demands a certified dealership diagnose the issue. I maintain my right as a consumer to use a private repair shop. They will not investigate any further with my report, without their service department, which is biased and a conflict, providing the diagnosis.
