Alison failure
Just back from 21/2 week trip along Oregon coast. Took truck (Chevy Duramax) to car wash, and when pulled out of car wash parking lot transmission failed, lots of warning signals (stabilitrak failed, shift interlock engaged). Long story short, towed to dealer - failed transmission control module. Dealer said very rare failure, has to order part, will not get truck back for a week. Only bright spots are it is covered under warranty and it did not happen on the trip. Truck has 66,000 miles without any problems. I did keep transmission in manual mode for much of the time while in the Coastal hills and Oregon mountains, but I have always done that. Can't think of any reason why car wash would have played a role -I go there frequently.
