Good truck but some transmission issues
I purchased a 2019 Silverado in July 2019 and it has developed a strange lurching motion while coming to a stop kind of feels like hitting a small pothole after doing some research GM has been aware of this and other issues with the 8 speed transmission for about 4 years now. I’m taking it back to the dealer to see if they can fix it I still like the truck but this issue is really disappointing and is starting to ruin my new truck buying experience so do your research before buying any GM vehicle with this transmission I have a LT double cab with the 5.3 V8 Updated on 1/29/2020, 6700 miles, the problems with the transmission have mostly gone away. I would say 95% of the time I drive the truck it shifts fine, and any rough shifts are more smoother now. I like everything else about the truck..the new design, the performance, the comfort and new tech features are great. It seems like anything you buy nowadays has some technical issues or doesn’t last as long as the old versions use to. Bottom line I would recommend the Silverado but if you’re looking to buy a new one, you might want to wait for the 2021 models as they’ll have the new GM 10 speed transmissions which are supposed new be better/newer than the 8 speed. I hope this info helps REVIEW UPDATE: It’s been just over a year now since I bought my truck I have about 10,000 miles on it now so I thought I would update my original review. The last time I took my truck back to my local dealer was in January 2020 and they reprogrammed the transmission module and I have not really had an issue with the transmission since then so that helped a lot. My last truck was a 2001 Silverado so it took a little getting used to all the new computer controlled components but I am really enjoying my new truck now and I now feel the same way about my new truck that I used to feel about my old truck it’s a part of the family now. I’m sure you truck guys know what I mean. So I would recommend Chevy trucks to anyone thinking of buying a new truck just take your time, do a lot of test drives, do your due diligence and make an educated decision. Good luck

IF WANT VEHICLE THAT WON'T DRIVE ALL THE TIME...
- I purchased my beautiful 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT Double Cab in June 2019 and LOVED it until a week later when I went camping out of state and next day the vehicle started yet wouldn't drive forward or reverse. When it finally did go forward, there was NO power steering. Then, when I turned it off blocks away to try to get the power steering to return; it would not drive again. I called ONSTAR and they were able to reset the computer so I could drive home. Dashboard message read "Trailer Brake Assist, Power Steering Reduced". I had NOTHING hitched to the vehicle. Then, over the next 5 months my truck has stranded me 9 times at all hours of the day/night with starting and not driving and with the same error message...so is VERY UNSAFE! The truck stranded me in a Chevrolet dealership parking lot and I was told they would NOT assist me with discovering the problem since I did NOT purchase it from them. Thanks to ONSTAR for being able to reset the computer for me so I could drive home. I was in Colorado stranded for two days after I got vehicle towed to Chevrolet dealership and was promised they would fix truck & yet when got there they did not have rental car they promised or willing to fix truck so I ended up getting very ill over next 6 weeks & had to seek medical attention 3 times. Thanks for NOTHING! - I took my Silverado to local Chevrolet dealership twice and they cannot get vehicle to duplicate the problems so are unable to fix it. When the truck had the issues, the Chevrolet dealerships were NOT willing to assist me so it has not been fixed yet after 7 months of purchasing it. Problems get worse...now I have had 2 accidents with the vehicle in 2019 costing $10,000 in repairs because of reduced power steering when turning and the vehicle stalling then lurching forward with increased acceleration when stepping on the foot pedal just to turn from almost a stopped position so I end up on a curb (forced my front bumper to fall off that will cost me $1,000 to replace) AND hit a sign in the parking lot (cost $9,000 in repairs). My truck stalled in my own driveway and then after ONSTAR reset the computer, it lurched forward into my garage and hit a board in front of it that pushed through my drywall...so now I have a hole in my garage also. - I called General Motors before and after the accidents and complained that my vehicle is a "LEMON" and that they need to take my vehicle back and get me a vehicle that is safe and that I can drive without any issues as I do like to travel and I plan on using the vehicle to move so it needs to be safe and reliable; especially after all of the money I spent to purchase it. I also complained to GM that their Chevrolet dealerships were unwilling to assist Chevrolet Owners when vehicles were under warranty and there were issues because we did not purchase them from their dealership and we needed assistance so hopefully they can put out a bulletin that this is NOT acceptable. Finally, GM did send an Investigator to take pictures of my vehicle and check the computer for any codes after it was damaged and in the repair shop for 40 days. I was told this delay was because GM was on strike and parts could not be obtained quickly and yet Chevrolet NEVER gave me a rental car. My insurance had to pay for the truck repairs and car rental for 30 days due to the accident and then I had to pay for the car rental for extra 10 days.it took to repair the truck. - I love the comfort of my Silverado truck and how safe I feel driving it, love that it has seat height adjustment (paid extra for this option since work truck does not include seat height adjustment for reduced price of truck), love comfort of back seat (slept in it late one night on trip), love length of truck bed to haul items and all the tie-downs to secure them, love all the storage areas (purchased under seat storage compartment for back seat with owner points that is wonderful to not get carpet dirty), love that windows do NOT fog up inside like most cars, love large backup camera, love steering wheel controls, love ease of stepping in and out of bed of truck, love good stereo reception, and all the ports to use for accessories. I HATE the stereo speakers in my Silverado...they cannot play music loud or they rattle and the sound is muffled so Chevrolet should provide better speakers for the amount of money that this Silverado costs so Owners can enjoy music while outside of the vehicle also. I did get notice that the 2019 Silverado 1500 truck was recalled due to some of my issues; yet MY VIN # WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL! WHAT? So, I am very disappointed in General Motors and Chevrolet right now until they can assist me with owning a reliable and safe vehicle and one that ALL Chevrolet dealerships will repair when there is an immediate need for it; like the one I was supposed to have purchased for a large sum of money in 2019.

2019 trail boss is a lemon
2019 Custom Trailboss- The good it looks nice, drives nice its got a Capri Camper on it and it tows nice. I like it when its not broke. The bad, lots of electrical problems, the fuel pump, the fuel pump controller burnt out at 5000 miles leaving me stranded. Ruining my vacation. They also fixed the breaks and battery cable? 5000 miles later the dash burnt up and was replaced, alternate cable was inspected for defects(recall) and breaks fixed again for coding errors. Side note when I went to remove the tailgate to install the camper the workers had cross threaded the bolts for the wire supports for the tailgate. Drove them in full length with an air gun. Trashy work guys. I wont beable to reinstall without having to rethread the bolt holes. Im probably gonna sell it before the warrenty over because its a piece of junk. Ill sell the camper and my boat then too. I cant afford to be driving around unreliable expensive gear cost prohibitive gear Fords are breaking down too and so are Toyota's. It just takes all.the fun out of wanting to enjoy the outdoors. Ill just stick to walking my doggie its alot cheaper.
2019 Silverado Nightmare.
Bought a 2019 Silverado Lt with a 5.3 and an 8 speed. Since the day I bought it? 2 days in had defected break switch. Could not get truck in gear. Radio has had 4 updates. Bluetooth dropping in out, display goes blank or goes a pretty rainbow if you are into that stuff. Had a water leak. Got new carpet. Replacing bumper because of bad Crome. And the transmission is junk. And I only have 5000 on it. It’s finally in its 3rd time for transmission so after this a lawyer. I like the truck? But definitely a no brained. Poorly built.

Wouldn't have it if it were free
I had the use of a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with the double cab for 3 weeks while my truck was in the body shop. The truck cured me of ever wanting to own this vehicle. The cons: HUGE turning radius. The transmission KLUNKS every time it shifts gears. It drives like a pig. The pros: Nice backup camera. Great hand-free setup. Good gas mileage.

GM knew about defective injectors - Never fixed!
GM Knew about faulty injectors, and never fixed them. Bankrupt in 2009. Save yourself the trouble and go with another manufacturer that will stand behind their products.
Silver more like lead!
Seats are not good at all. No support. You need to sit on a driving cushion. Trouble starting cold weather. One USB charge plug and one 12volt plug! Are you kidding me. Soft suspension promotes uneven tire wear. Poor towing capability. You can’t go off road or ice fishing as computer turns traction control back on. Terrible interior lights. Terrible headlights.
2019 silverado 1500 custom dbl cab, 2 wheel dr,
have 14 problems already....hood paint-dripping off interior hood-looks like ice sickles and excessive paint on hood, brake pad wear- had fixed was computer glitch(maybe)- still indicating excessive wear, tailgate uneven, all 4 doors do not fit right due to poor install weather proofing, the body that connects the hood to the outside of windshield is off 1/2 inch indicating may have been torqued to hard or frame problems, interior weatherproofing coming apart, climate control does not work properly, volume control will not turn off, drivers seat sinking in-cheap foam material, two interior roof speakers don't work, infrequent sound in roof possibly electronic device not properly installed, muffler leaking(says it's normal), eco-v-8 gas milage is not as advertised-about 3-4 mile less per gallon in city and on hwy, would have to leave NEW truck up to 2 weeks for repair as it would need to be sent out to body shop and trim specialist, huge inconvenience, hoping for buyback, if not, this chevy man is gone to ford. In the model section it does not have a custom eco-v8 model listed so chose the first custom on the list

GM garbage
I'm writing this based on a 2 week loaner I was given to drive because my 2017 Silverado with a 6 speed tranny 5.3 v8 is back for the fourth time for many tranny issues and various other problems which GM says they can't find or fix?? My thoughts now on the 2019 ......chevy had fallen way down the ladder. These trucks are ugly the ride is decent when you stay away from the Z71 package and 20 inch wheels. These options are a waste of money because my 2017 has them and mine rides like a tank. This 2019 goes down the road like a bullet and uses no gas hardly compared to mine . If you must buy a Chevy get the 8 speed tranny because it is far better than the 6 Do your home work and read all you can on the new trucks and you will see Dodge and Ford are killing GM across the board. I have driven Ford and Dodge and I must say they both ride brake and perform way above Chevy. I have beat this 2019 hard and the only good thing I can say is that MPG is good. Interior is cheap ride is decent but shaky and for 47000 bucks I would buy Ford or Dodge over this Chevy any day!! I don't know why edmunds doesn't have a option in their reviews for a LT double bab 5.3 truck? That is what my review is based on and not a LTZ. You would be more upset if it was because you paid way too much for that piece of junk over this one!! GM is back to building garbage again along with their false advertising on TV. GM trucks are to be rented and not bought because you will not be happy down the road. Please do some research!!

Buyer Beware
If you're thinking about buying a Chevy Silverado truck with an 8 speed transmission, be ware.Traded in a great 2016 Silverado with 27,000 miles for a new supposedly better truck. My 2019 truck has 7200 miles on it. Have had it back to the dealer 3 times already for transmission issues. Have owned Chevy trucks since early 80's and never experienced anything like this.I keep the truck in my garage during the winter, I let it warm up 3 to 5 minutes if not longer on cold days. Pull out onto rod and go to accelerate. Truck has major hesitation, falls on it's face. Transmission shifts erratically first 2 to 3 miles after that. Service manager drove truck, looked up issues on GM site, found bulletin stating this is normal for these transmissions. Being told you have to let the truck warm up 8 to 10 minutes before you drive it so the transmission fluid can warm up and circulate through torque converter and tranny. All these years of owning Chevy trucks, never heard or experienced anything like this. Not happy, when you spend $50,000 on a vehicle, you shouldn't have to worry or deal with anything like this. Am getting rid of this truck and going back to the 6 speed transmission.. Stay away from the 8 sppeds!!!

Transmission Failure
Purchased this RST 4x4 new with a 5.3. Truck runs fine but around 25000 miles the transmission began to have a high pitch sound. Driving one day at 40000 the transmission began hard shifting and I thought that I was not going any further. Took the truck to our Chevy dealer and there was no check lights or any indication of a problem. I recieved a notice for GM that the truck was fine with no problems. Had the transmission checked and it was full of metal. Totally failed. The truck is still at the dealer after 2 months and now GM says they will ship a new transmission from Michigan. Its winter and we have not had a 4x4 since before Christmas. This is Colorado and we cannot get to the doctor or store most of the time. I have been a GM Customer for 50 years. This may be the end.

Not designed for a female passenger.
Check on what it's missing, buy the 2018, it's pretty but not built for a female passenger, no navigation! No outlet in storage, passenger seat is too low.

2019 silverado z71
purchased new, now have 24K on it and still loving it. Go into some rough areas for work and it has not let me down. Spacious interior, pleasure to drive, took a little getting use to dynamic fuel management..but not bad once you become acclaimated to it.
Awesome truck
I absolutely love my truck. It’s great on gas and has plenty of room and I also love the bigger bulkier body style. My truck rides amazing and is an absolute tank in the winter.

My truck
I initially leased this truck, after my lease was up I just bought it. My truck is the 8 cyl, 5.3 liter, double cab.
Massive disappointment
This truck has been a massive disappointment. At 29k miles it had to have a new back up camera and radio. At 31k miles the power steering went out and the wiring in the steering column needed to be replaced. At 33k miles the exhaust pipes rusted apart at the split… this vehicle is just a complete disaster. I’m incredibly disappointed in Chevy.

Great truck so far!
In 2019 I was looking for a new truck that could pull are 24ft camper. I've always had toyota, but decided to give GM a try. The first month I had the truck it developed a leak behind the back window glass which they fixed. Since then I've had 80k worry free miles and no real complaints except on really cold mornings if I jump in the truck and take off the transmission does a hard shift from 1st to second gear, other than that it shifts smooth. I love the ride, handling, and power compared to my tacoma.
Trail boss custom
So far I love this truck. Being a Jeep guy and this being my first truck I am very impressed. Good job Chevy !
