I purchased a 2015 Sierra SLT with 6.2l and 8 Speed in August 2015 and when it is cold meaning its been setting a day or so, you will almost always get a slip in the transmission causing a several second delay. I had went to a show for my company in Atlanta GA and almost got hit because, I backed out onto the street and when I put it in forward it would not go for several seconds because it just revs up the stairs shudders going forward. I have taken it back to my dealer twice and they cannot recreate the problem so, they have done nothing. I ran into a man at my dealership who was in the process of describing the exact same problem and gave him my business card to see if they fixed his issue. The dealership told him the same thing and he called me yesterday to let me know he and his wife got hit in the Highland NC because, he backed out and could not go forward just like I do weekly in mine. I now have a couple phone videos of mine doing it to show my dealer again but, I am wondering what to do as they have not done anything yet.
