I have an Easy Care warranty. My transmission has gone out this week. The tech at the dealership advised there’s a chance Easy Care voids the warranty due to a 1-1/2”level kit and 33” tires.

Has anyone ever experienced this? If so, is it worth it to swap out tires and remove level kit to ensure warranty isn’t voided?

How many miles do you have? Bringing my 2018 in to the dealership tomorrow for transmission issues, only has 45,000 miles on it and has developed the “Chevy shudder”. Not very happy about as the truck is stock everything.

My cousin owns a auto shop. The amount of work they get from guys with voided warranties due to lifts is astounding.

Do you have the 10 speed? If so, that trans has known (chronic) issues. You might have some recourse there. Good luck.

I have a good friend who is on the exec board. I just shot him a text to see if true?


ETA, his response was "depends...are specs within factory guidelines"

He said for you to call direct and ask. they have a hotline for stuff like this

also said they allow for mods within a range.

sorry he is just firing off text. Also said to see if any other trim levels come from factory with 33's
