A 2009 with 18,000 miles- take it to the dealer for warranty work. Did you get a check engine light? If so what was the code? Could possibly be an engine misfire-maybe a bad coil pack, maybe moisture in plug boot.

Unfortunately since the mileage is so low what ever is wrong is odd. You are going to have to contact corporate GM and push then to find out the problem. Does it run bad all the time?

I'm sorry to hear of your frustration with your Silverado. I see you stated that you have taken the vehicle to two different dealers. Also that the vehicle only runs rough while in gear at a light. Was the dealer able to duplicate the problem? It is difficult to diagnose a problem if it cannot be duplicated.

I look forward to your reply.
