| I have a 2002 chevy s10 ext. cab pickup truck with a vortex 4.3 litre eng. with automatic transmission. while baking out of driveway i noticed i had no reverse gear, it is also slipping in all other gears. this truck has never hauled anything heavy and only has 49,500 miles on it . i got down to the stop sign and tried to proceed and the forward gears started to slip and i couldn't get out of the way of oncoming traffic and almost got hit by an oncoming car. i have heard and talked to many other people who own these vehicles with the 4l60e/4o65e transmissions. i feel these could be dangerous. they seem to all have the same sun shell and sun gear problems. i feel general motors should re-call them. *tr | |||
