Happy New Year!
I have been a strong Chevy buyer from 1965. My new 2016 Silverado HighCounty ha engine and transmission issues from day one. Chevy changed the transmission fluid but didn’t fix it.
They still won’t do anything to fix there design issue. Faulty engineering.
I or my family won’t be buying anymore GM products. John
