I'm looking at ordering a 2011 Nox LTZ w/o Nav, but have been reading about people having downshifting issues with the transmission. There is a big thread at edmunds and a few instances here. I understand that there is a fix and that it is a fairly simple flash by the dealer. It also seems that this more prevalent in the 4 cyl models. I'm looking at ordering a V6 so is this a pretty much a non issue? Also can anyone confirm if the newer build dates include the revised flash for the transmission or is it still hit and miss?
I've driven my friends 2010 LT V6 and haven't noticed any tranny issues in hers, the only problem that she has had so far was the power liftgate had a mind of it's own one day and wouldn't stay open. A quick cycle of the key solved the issue.
In my reading I've seen a few teething issues and recalls but no more than with any other of the newer model vehicle out there. It seems there were some centre clusters that were bad for a while and some speaker hissing and the odd few that couldn't shift out of park.
Are the gremlins prety much ironed out of the current production vehicles or is it worth waiting a bit yet?
Also any idea of current order to build times in Canada currently?
Thanks for any input.
