How it happens is I’m sitting at a stop I confidently put the car in first, sometimes I’ll do it twice just to make sure and when light turns green I start going. As I do that it will pop back into neutral with a large CLUNK sound? Could there be an issue with my brand new trans?
I've had this happen about a half dozen times in the two years I've owned my '17 ZL1 (7500 miles currently). It also happened multiple times with my 5th gen ZL1(14,500 miles at trade-in).

I don't think it's a transmission issue since it happens so randomly. There's just some scenarios where you push it into first gear but for some reason it doesn't fully engage. It's most likely driver error.

Now if it would happened every 2nd or third shift into first, then I'd say there's a problem the dealer needs to address.
