Should have listened to Scotty Kilmer

These are real people not actors.... they should put this on the commercials

Its a endless money pit they should’ve bought a used 96 celica

"Hey the transmission has a shudder." "Oh nice lets open up the hood for the camera!"

First mistake: Spending 52 k on a Chevy

Same is happening on my f250 diesel, except its 18 years old so I don't mind.

That shutter is the “real people” presenter trying to get out from under the seats

I’m not sure why this is a problem presented just now it’s been a problem for years

That’s not vibrations, that’s the “Heartbeat of America” your feeling.

They should also return those bought “JD power” awards.

It’s not just the 8 speeds, it’s a huge problem with the 2014-2018 Silverado’s as well as the 6-speed and 8-speed

I bought this Chevy and stuck these nice mud tires on her and now she vibrates like my wife’s night light she keeps in the top drawer

My wife shakes and shudders,maybe I can trade her in!!!!

But JD Power and Associates gives them the dependability award every year!

I used to like Chevy now I don't. Why did we bail these guys out again? P.S. Don't pay $5,000 more for a truck because it has 2 red stripes on the rims.

I love how he opens the hood, when he says it’s a trans problem..

And my 40 year old Turbo 350 still shifts smooth.

Should known GM quality control has been going downhill for decades.

Why’d he call a news reporter to look at his truck

Toyota has the same problem but it only comes after 20 yrs of service.

It’s not the transmission, it’s the cylinder deactivation turning off and on.

I've had my GMC Sierra at the dealership 3 times.... they finally told me.... that's how it is!

I was a transmission engineer at GM working on the 8-speed (prior to being laid off as part of their 15,00 person slash) and this shudder issue has been know about for years. Seems they still haven't figured it out... My advice, avoid the 8L45 and 8L90 trans if at all possible.

Where is Scotty when you need him lol..

Just like scotty kilmer says GM products are even worse made and the quality is horrendous.... meanwhile they continue to raise their $$$$$

Known as "Chevy Shake". Possibly the driveshaft isn't "true" on a lot of them. Bring it to a drivetrain shop.

People spend over $50,000 on a 1,500 mall crawler pickup 😂😂😂

your own fault if you bought a chevy and don’t know who scotty kilmer is

My tundra shifts are so smooth I don’t mind the 13 mpg, I don’t care about cylinders deactivation

The decline of Chevy is happening. Even Ram took their number 2 spot. Wonder why.

Your Dog : my owner bought a Chevy now we go on long walks!! Dog owner : I named my dog Chevy because he never leaves the driveway

After the 90's GM quality has been going down

This is one of those guys that say they would never buy another chevy product again lol

They shouldn't have ever got bailout $. Then moved to mexico! GM will fall again.

Yup same thing happened to me with my Silverado. The so called mechanics couldn't figure out what was wrong. It was in the shop several times. So I finally traded it in on an older better model. Been happy ever since.

Surprised GM owners don’t shake and shudder when they realize they just made one of the biggest mistakes in the automotive industry when they buy a GM product

Instead of telling the news about it, tell a mechanic. He’s been having it for a year

"Chevy shake" is very common. My brothers 17 escalade had it BAD. Ended up being lemon lawed after transmission failed for the 7th time and steering column failed 4x. Garbage

Ford is having the Same issue with the Focus clutch packs

“Built like a Rock” rolls down the road like a rock too

I got a Dodge Ram Advertisement before watching this lol

That shake is the excitement of the truck for its junkyard visit. *insert Scotty K. laugh

The 8 speed is known to have issues - their is a fix... According to TSB (Technical Service Bulletin) 18-NA-355, the update addresses “torque converter clutch (TCC) shudder conditions on 8L45 and 8L90” eight-speed automatic transmissions, RPO codes M5N, M5T, M5U, and M5X. Affected vehicles include Chevrolet, GMC and Cadillac vehicles, as follows. Chevrolet 2015 - 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 2015 - 2019 Chevrolet Corvette 2016 - 2019 Chevrolet Camaro 2017 - 2019 Chevrolet Colorado GMC 2015 - 2017 GMC Yukon 2015 - 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 2017 - 2019 GMC Canyon Cadillac 2015 - 2017 Cadillac Escalade 2016 - 2018 Cadillac CT6 2016 - 2019 Cadillac ATS 2016 - 2019 Cadillac ATS-V 2016 - 2019 Cadillac CTS (excluding V-Sport models) 2016-2019 Cadillac CTS-V The issues with the 8-speed GM transmission are two-fold. First, some customers report the transmission shuddering frequently. Secondly, the shifts are very harsh between first to second, and then second down to first, especially when accelerating and the transmission is upshifting or decelerating and the transmission is down Shifting. These conditions are most commonly observed under light and medium throttle applications, and as often during full throttle applications. However, a new fluid flush appears to fix the issues, with some customers beginning to report a dramatic change in shift quality after swapping out the old juice. If the flush doesn’t fix the issue, the next step may be to replace the torque converter, which could be glazed. The issue seems to stem from “moisture content in the transmission fluid.” As such, the old GM transmission liquid is swapped for new Mobil 1 Synthetic LV ATF HP fluid. Driving the vehicle for about a week or so improves shift quality even further as the new fluid cleans things up inside the transmission and the adaptive shift algorithms relearn various parameters. This is obviously a big deal for owners struggling with their vehicle’s eight-speed. Hopefully the new fluid swap will provide a lasting fix. It could also be the Cylinder Deactivation System

Should have purchased a 94 Celica instead

Chevy needs to start stress testing their powertrains like Toyota and Honda does.. Honda does it to 200k and Toyota 300k before they push their products out to the mass market.

And this is why you can't beat an old 80's-90's pick up truck

2000-2006 best suv and truck Chevy has built probably ever

Ford: *laughs*

2019 Silverado 200 miles already clunking

Laughs in Ford owner

Everyone in this comment section all of the sudden is a car mechanic or car engineer🤣🤣

I just bought a 2017 Colorado Used last Thursday. It started doing this immediately. I took it back Monday they gave it back to me today after doing a fluid flush and ITS STILL DOING IT!!

This is why I only buy Japanese cars

that’s why you buy a ford or tundra 🤦‍♂️

Next time my car acts up im calling the news station

I was thinking about getting a chevy camaro..i won't have any issues right?

Wrong everyone, it is the torque converter that is faulty.

Wisconsin, same, dealer change the transmission fluid, and did a transmission calibration. Gone for now and gas mileage has gone up. But that only 2 fill ups so far.

GM responds: Drivers are just drunk. It’s them shaking and shuddering.

I worked there I was the delivery coordinator I literally said all of these trucks were fucked I knew it lol

Its like dating they don’t always drive how they look. Read Consumer Reports before dropping 50k.

I drive for a local Chevy dealer, and I know what they are talking about. New Silverado’s are the worst. The 1-2 shift is awful! And no two change the same.

I'm here for the comments.... But Scotty is always rite though😂😂

Toyota : evil laughing in a dark corner somewhere with a pair of binoculars spying on GM😂

They cannot fix the problem and they don’t care about the customer

Toyota’s brakes were failing like a year ago 😂

Whoa that's crazy. Who could've guessed Chevys were so shit. I did.

100 mile daily commuter.. 95 suburban 2wd put on 200k miles drove for 7 years (retired at 307k miles). 2 transmissions and chased oil leaks since I bought it. 03 z71 suburban on 33" Firestones. Drove it for 3 years put on less than 100k miles (still have at 211k miles). Put 3 transmissions, transfer case rebuild, motor mounts, u joints, rear end bearings (all), front hubs and the vibrations never stopped. I've been a chevy guy since I was 5 polishing my uncle's original owner 68 rs/ss camero that he had for over 40 years before he passed 2 years ago. As a daily driver. I will never own another American vehicle. Especially a 100 mile daily commuter. I'll still use the chevys for local nostalgia. Like rat rods, low riders and hauling. Last May, I bought my first Lexus. It's cheaper than a chevy to work on, I dont chase mechanical issues every week. No dash lights or vibrations. If you need a pickup truck. Buy a tundra. I did a lot of research on dependability. I dumped over $10k in my z71 keeping it on the road. Believe me brother. It ain't worth it... just put your head down and walk away, gm isn't what they used to be. They're designed to fail now. Spend a little more and buy Toyota, so u can be drivetrain worry free.

Should of got a Ford No shacking and no Obama taxpayers bailout !!!

My 99 Sierra does the same thing and it has low mileage and its been well maintained

My 2014 does it with the 6 speed transmission. From what I’ve read on some of the truck forums is that it’s the active fuel management system that’s causing it. I read that if you drive in manual mode in 5th gear it tricks the computer into thinking your still pulling off and it won’t engage the AFM. Once you’re one open roads and above 55mph manually switch to 6th. It works but I’m thinking off getting a module to delete the AFM. I guess for the people with 8 speeds you would try running in 7th. That being said my buddy did have the torque converter in his 16 go out on him which I thought was odd for such a new truck.

Meanwhile my 2002 Silverado with a 4L60E is still shifting like a dream, what happened Chevy?

The fix to this issue and other several issues is DON'T BUY GM it's that simple.

Never buy an American vehicle that shares its name with a comedian. C H E V Y.

This is what you Americans get for dumping the manual in favour of the slushbox For every American who does drive manual I salute you. You made the right choice.

But they have the JD Power Initial Quality Award!

the automatic transmission was invented back when woman started driving to make it easier, so what gm needs to do is start putting a mans transmission option back in and solve the issue

Well it’s a Chevy. POS cars. Chevy was good in the old days.

Had the same problem in my Chevy Colorado,got the upgraded fluid & it fixed it

I had a 2019 GMC 3500HD Denali transmission gone in 17k miles

Dude It's the Active fuel management it goes into v4 mode thus making it shudder

what did you expect when buying a GM? 😂😂😂

This is why GM is the laughing stock of the worldwide auto industry. When more people see the parodies of GM commercials than the original commercials, there's obviously a problem

There still building them like this everyday LMAO!!!!!!

My 2016 Silverado has the six speed auto and works like a charm.

My Jeep Cherokee Xj has almost 400,000 miles and is just like new.4.0 AW4 IS A BEAST....ALL THESE NEW VEHICLES ARE JUNK.

My 2001 sierra has a shake like that that i cant fix, but my 2019 corvette is as smooth as can be!!

Chevy and Ford collaborated on a 10 speed auto that's pretty solid swap it up

This is exactly why I bought a 2019 Trail Boss V8 with 6 speed trans, I have 10,000 miles on it , and besides my old 03 Z71, the trail boss is the best truck I’ve ever owned.

Its not only the 8 speeds its also the 10 speeds in the new 2020 pickups!!!!

The shudder is the TCC, it's designed to slip a little to prevent the computer setting a misfire code. They have been trying to fix it with fluid updates. The Lockup clutch in the torque converter is designed to slip slightly. It's this slip that is causing the shudder. If you use the wrong oil, it will cause it as well.

Well it’s GM what did he expect ? Guessing it’s Tundra time !

30 years ago I bought a Chevy with a 4.3v6. I asked about the way it shakes and was told it was demonstrating the “ classic 4.3 shake “. To which I said let’s just hope this bastard doesn’t come with fries....

Should have got a TOYOTA 👍

This is literally why my whole ass family buys Toyota’s and Honda’s

I own a 2009 Silverado, with 92,000 miles 4.3 V6 Auto. 4wd. And I do not have 3rd.gear. The local transmission shop told me this is a very common problem. And he showed me the 3rd gear cluster he was working on. And pointed out the other two trucks in for the same Issue! I Live in Vermont!

What happened to the JD power award winning cars?😂😂

It happened with an Escalade it a torque converter . It fixed it

No problems from my 2015 z71 5.3 6 speed transmission. I've roasted the tires off it since I bought it. 50 k hard miles

I Love That Truck.
