The privately owned 1500's tranny had never skipped a beat. One day on the way home from a local shopping trip it started losing gears. Got it home with only third left. The other three 1500's were vehicles my son used at work. Serviced regularly. All three trannies went out in short order. They're not known for being the best. I forgot about a friend who just recently told me her husband had bought a used 1500 Silverado of that era back in April of 2017. Come Sept the trannie was toast. So that makes for five that I personally know of.
That's a lot of transmissions failing .
