This Problem Across All Years
I'm reaching out for urgent help regarding my 2024 GMC AT4, which is currently at Newby Buick GMC in St. George, Utah, with a transmission failure that occurred on Saturday, [XXX]. While returning from a horse show in Ogden, Utah, the truck began to experience severe transmission issues near Santaquin, Utah, around 5:30 p.m. Just before reaching Santaquin, the truck jerked violently three times-so hard that I immediately checked the camera system inside my horse trailer to make sure one of my horses hadn't gone down. That's how intense the jolt was. I pulled into a gas station in Santaquin and called the dealership right away. At the time, I had three horses on board, it was nearly 100 degrees, and I was hauling a large living quarters horse trailer. The service manager was initially unavailable, but he returned my call shortly and advised me to continue driving to St. George at a steady speed if the truck could manage it. He also warned that it might go into limp mode, and in that case, I'd just be traveling very slowly. My husband was on standby in case he needed to meet me halfway, but I was hopeful that I could make it to at least Hurricane, Utah. I was able to access my GMC app on my phone at the time and confirmed to him that the transmission check light was on, and I was receiving a warning notification on the app indicating there was a transmission issue. I was able to limp the truck as far as Hurricane, where my husband met me. We unloaded the horses into stalls and took both trucks into St. George that night to drop the AT4 off at the dealership. On Monday morning, I contacted the dealership for an update and was informed that the issue was likely related to the transmission valve, and that the required part is on national back order-with an estimated delay of two months or more, but no confirmed ETA. This has been my first GMC diesel. I've always driven Dodge trucks. Over a year ago, I saw the new color GMC released and kept telling my husband how amazi INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM O

Transmission would not stay in gear while towing trailer and would only go to 5th or 6th gear and would jerk out of gear and oil temperatures would go to 225 degrees. Erratically shifting and while driving with cruise control stop with out warning

The check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact pulled over to a truck stop and parked the vehicle. The contact stated that the battery became fully drained while parked with the windows rolled down in snowy weather. The contact stated that after waiting 6 hours for AAA to arrive, the vehicle jump-started. The contact stated that the battery had drained on several occasions.

Transmission has a bad vibration at low RPMs under acceleration as well as slipping and hard shifts. A few times the transmission has locked up the briefly. It also runs very hot between 180 and 249 degrees. Have been researching this when I came across all the problems and recalls however nothing listed for my VIN

Nothing has happened so far but I believe they have an issue with the Allison transmission. When you first start off in the morning driving slow the transmission shifts hard with a thump. I've taken it in to the GMC dealership in Ft. Walton Beach, Florida and they kept the truck overnight and said everything seems to work as it should. I just traded my 2021 gmc 3500hd dually with 130k miles on it and never heard that or ever had an issue so I'm not sure what changed since then? I'm not sure what you guys can do to look into it?

Car will not turn off and will display "Shift to Park". Similar recall on other models. This has gotten worse and happens most of the time now.

Breaks and/or drive train. It is available for inspection. 1) Breaks sink causing slowed break time and decreased breaking ability. If the breaks are "pumped", more often than not, they will come back up to full pedal. However, in an emergency breaking situation, there is not time to "pump" the breaks. I was nearly in an accident recently when the break pedal would not stop the truck in time, due to the soft break pedal. I literally had to steer to the shoulder of the road. 2) When placing transmission in Drive or Reverse from the park position, then taking foot off of break pedal, there is about a 1 - 2 foot roll, then the truck stops as if the e-break has been engaged (but it is not engaged). By tapping the accelerator, it will "break free" (with a popping sound and a slight "jerk" in the truck) and then roll fine. This does not always happen ~ guestimate of about 10% of the time. 3) I don't know if this is related, but when I set the Drive Mode to "Normal", it automatically goes to "Off Road" ~ this happens no matter the driving conditions. This isn't safety related necessarily, however, it may be a part of the total problem.... It also decreases my fuel economy. I took the truck to the local GMC dealer/shop. They said the truck had 2 recalls and they took care of those. They believed one of the recalls would help solve the "sticking" when placing in Drive or Reverse ~ it did not. They also (supposedly) checked the breaking system and took it for a test drive. They said the breaks were fine. I doubt this happened as the soft break pedal and the need to "pump" the breaks to bring them to full pedal is completely obvious. I took the truck home after the inspection and recall. The same issues continued, so I took it back to the shop where it was inspected again. Again, I was told everything was in working order ~ it is NOT! There are no warning lights that I can find to indicate there is an issue. I'm begining to think that I should have bought a Ram Truck...
