POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
WE HAD NEVER TOWED ANYTHING WITH THIS VEHICLE, NEVER TOOK THIS VEHICLE OFF ROADING EITHER. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT A GEAR POPPED THROUGH THE CASING, THERE ARE MANY NOTICABLE CRACKS IN THE CASING. WE KEPT ALL THE OLD PARTS FOR INSPECTION. I FEEL THAT I HAD A DEFECTIVE CASING OR SOMETHING ALONG THOSE LINES. A VEHICLE WITH LESS THAN 57000 SHOULD HAVE NEVER DONE THIS. I CALLED THE LOCAL GM DEALER AND THEY WERE NOT HELPFUL AT ALL. *AK
