Mine has been to the dealership four times with a shudder. (3 different dealers)   They say it's normal.  This is my last GM product. I can't stand driving my new truck

 

Take it to the dealer again and tell them there is a TSB 19-NA-121 out for TCC shutter this as it flushes and changes the trans fluid to the new type of Mobile 1 blue label fluid, I had this done about a year ago and all is fine.

@nichos I think I’ve been having the same problem on my 2019 Silverado 1500 5.3L V8- getting worse/more frequent the last month or two.
 

Did you get the Trans fluid flush done and have any benefit? 
 

Hoping I can get away with just the TSB that @Silverado4x4 mentions there.

 

thanks in advance!

@Garystruder I think it did for a while but the problem came back. I took it in at the start of the year since I knew my 60k powertrain was expiring. The dealer said it would be covered and GM would rebuild it for free.

 

I was fortunate though, the dealer included a 100k warranty when I bought the truck and I was able to get a new transmission (see this thread: https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/263709-2020-chevrolet-silverado-1500-8-speed-shudder/#comment-2647696 )

 

Anyway, I have the new transmission, I wouldn't say it's smooth, but the shudder is definitely gone. Still had shift when she's cold.

 

Good luck!

I experience the same thing a high frequency vibration. It’s not at a severe level yet I was concerned. I took my truck into the local Chevy garage. The service manager said it was due the torque converter. He wanted to replace the fluid in the transmission. He said that might help. $675 later with new fluid the high frequency vibration comes and goes as before. 
I’m planning a 2,000+ mile trip over Christmas. I’m concerned regarding possible transmission failure on the trip. The truck is a 4 door with a 5.3 liter engine - 4x4 of course. The truck has 130,000 plus miles on it.
