2008 single cab 4.8 (3,000 miles)

Was driving home from Galveston on I45 and a car on the entrance ramp cut me off so I was forced to slam on my breaks (damn f-150). Well I'm assuming my tranny shifted down to quickly or something but it didn't like that and made a loud banging sound at me.

Now when I start it up and put it into reverse and squeals for about half a second at me, not horrible but noticeable. And going from reverse to park will also get a little reaction out of the tranny (small knocking sound). It drives fine though, and is quite.

Not going to lie i feel pretty sick right now. I'm a college kid trying to pay off that brand new truck and now I'm thinking I already screwed something up...

What do you think? Should I go to the chevy dealer where i bought it and get them to "service" it. Don't know what they would do, doubt they'd take the time to take it apart and look at it. What a pain. What should i do ?

 

It doesn't have a warranty?

 

yeah it does. Should I drive it till it breaks or take it in now?

 

Take it in so there is documentation..

 

ok that makes since. I'll go in Monday.

 

Take it in youll be fine

 

take it in.. as long as you havent done anything to eliminate the warranty such as the notch ull be fine

 

Id take it in first thing monday!

 

Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act. Read it. Notching wont affect the warranty of the transmission

 

what is notching??
