The contact owns a 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 2500. The contact stated while her husband was hauling a trailer and driving 55 MPH in the snow, the vehicle lost power steering functionality. In addition, the contact stated the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended while depressing the accelerator pedal before slamming into gear. The RPM fluctuated up to 6,500 RPM. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact's husband was able to coast to the side of the road. The vehicle was turned off but failed to restart. The contact's husband stepped out of the vehicle, and the vehicle restarted automatically. The vehicle was towed to a dealer, where it was diagnosed that the wiring was for a diesel vehicle; however, the contact's vehicle was gasoline operated. The contact was informed that the wiring harness control arm had rubbed against the control arm, causing the electrical system to short-circuit. The vehicle was repaired. The failure had progressively gotten worse. Most recently, the contact stated that the vehicle vibrated abnormally while driving. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, no cause for the failure was found. The contact stated that a seal was placed on the transmission.

Transmission lock-up while driving. Rear end of vehicle jumped up felt like I was rear ended. If this happened at higher speed or when towing it could cause serious injury to myself or others. The problem is well known by the dealers and GM manufacturing, they have recalled over 400000 trucks with this issue years 2020 to 2022 and yet they are still installing the faulty control bodies in the transmission of the 2023 to 2025 models. No warning messages, there was some shifting issues just before the lock-up.
General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2024-2025 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and GMC Sierra 2500 vehicles equipped with the enhanced towing option and 20-inch accessory tire/wheel package. The tire information label may state the incorrect rear tire pressure, resulting in underinflated tires and preventing the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) from displaying a low tire pressure warning.
