POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
CHEVROLET DID NOT PAY FOR ANY OF THE REPAIRS. THEY OFFERED TO PAY HALF, WHEN I DID NOT ACCEPT , THEY WITHDREW THE OFFER. AT THE TIME MY VEHICLE WAS IN THE SHOP THERE WERE 3 OTHERS IN FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY ALL HAD TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSIONS REPLACED. I BELIEVE THERE IS A DEFINITE PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSIONS THEY HAVE PUT IN THESE VEHICLES, AND THEY ARE NOT STANDING BEHIND THEM. MY VEHICLE HAS ALWAYS BEEN PROPERLY SERVICED BY CHEVROLET, AND IT HAS NOT BEEN ABUSED. I FEEL THAT THESE VEHICLES SHOULD BE RECALLED AND CHEVROLET HAVE TO FIX THEM. *AK
