DelawareJake Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 (edited) Hello, I have a 2018 Silverado, around 11000 miles on it. Driving the other day, lost power around 35 mph, pulled into a parking lot, re started the truck and checked to make sure I was in 2wd etc. Began driving again, toward home due to something being wrong and same issue occurred including check engine light. Had vehicle towed Friday night when it happened, at dealer now which isn't open until tomorrow. Has anyone experienced anything similar?

Hillwood Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Sorry about your luck man.. Any message in the DIC? Your going to have to wait and see what the dealer finds.. You really need codes for a starting point.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelawareJake Posted March 31, 2019 Author Share Posted March 31, 2019 No, it just stinks waiting three days for the dealer to hopefully fit the truck in. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksiesel Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Did you ever figure out what was causing this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelawareJake Posted April 17, 2019 Author Share Posted April 17, 2019 Yes, apparently it was a broken "input shaft", and they had to replace gears 4,5,6. I'm still unsure of what could cause this to happen at 11,000 on a truck I baby. They were also unable to tell me what could have caused this. I just worry that this will happen again in the future.

DelawareJake Posted April 17, 2019 Author Share Posted April 17, 2019 When I get home I'll try to find the paperwork and put on here exactly what it says, codes etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sierra Dan Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Cars and Trucks are mechanical. Anything mechanical can fail. Chalk it up to bad luck of the draw. Good news is, you're under warranty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtnel78 Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Probably not tempered for heat properly and was weak. Wonder how many of those they're replacing free of charge... If they still have it when you pick it up ask them if there was a TSB by chance on it. Good thing you have warranty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
