C8 Transmission failure less than 100km driven

no, you had yours before me. My VIN 7xxx...

Lol, 2 weeks...

My bad. It was valve springs. Here's the TSB on it. TSB PIP5752A

Ok just read it. Looks like the spring has to break or engine has to throw a code before they fix it

I hear it's $207 to have a dealer hook up a reader lol...

Faulty lifters ? What is your kilomertage ? Is that even a word?

Just so we don't confuse people it was valve springs and not lifters.
I edited my posts on it.

Hello everyone,

I picked up a brand new 2024 C8 and when I brought it home noticed that it had an oil leak. I took it to a GM dealership and they stated that the transmission was faulty and needed to be replaced. After speaking to GM they stated that I had 2 options: Either trade this vehicle in and order a new one (and pay $2000 for the trade in for dealer fees) which would come in 3 months or have the transmission on the current model replaced. Has anyone experienced an issue like this and has GM done anything i.e discounts, extended warranty?

Go for new..Some dealerships suck at basic C8 maintenance...

We couldn’t repair your brakes, so we made your horn louder .

Most C8s don’t have issues

I would hope NOT... There's a lot of them out there...

Get them to replace the transmission. I had a catastrophic engine failure at about 12,000k and my small town dealership replaced it. Took about 5 weeks but I have 19,000 k on it and it seems flawless so far. I guess if I keep it for 20 years I won’t be able to sell as a “matching numbers” car?

You aren't guaranteed that a new car will not have issues though.

In life there are no guarantees (except death). But there are probabilities…..and odds.

Will this show up on a carfax report because I'm not paying the same price for a used car that had the DCT replaced, also if you do have Spencer's replace it I've read others have received extended warranties from GM as compensation
