| Driving on the freeway on 4 different occasions the engine service light came on. first time at 52,000 miles in july '01, second time at 55,076 miles in sept. '01, third time at 63,196 miles in june '02 and fourth time at 63,766 miles in july '02. first time it was a transmission code, but transmission performed fine on test drive. second time unknown code. third time, no code given. fourth time transmission code of 1870, internal slippage. we noticed that coming off the freeway after 1/2 hour or so, the transmission shifts abruptly from 1st to 2nd gear. neither we nor the former owner towed anything with it. we had to get a remanufactured transmission which is good for 50,000 or 3 years. | |||

| There is a major problem with gm and chevrolet truck transmissions. hard shifting is experienced followed by engine light on panel. a code 0f 1870 is reported when it is serviced. i have had the dealer look at this several times and there appears to be no way to fix it. i have heard of many people paying $3000 for rebuilt trtansmissions and the problem stil is not corrected. gm has been contacted but will not respond. *ak | |||
