Consumer Description

MY HUSBAND SAID THAT HIS CAR WAS DRIVING POORLY FOR ABOUT A MONTH OR SO BEFORE IT BROKE DOWN ON A BUSY ROAD. SINCE THIS IS THE THIRD CHEVROLET TRANSMISSION TO BREAK DOWN ON BOTH MY HUSBAND AND I WE KNEW THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. AS A RESULT WE WERE WITHOUT A CAR FOR ABOUT A WEEK. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT BUT THERE VERY WELL COULD HAVE BEEN. THE CAR JUST DIED AT A RED LIGHT. CHEVROLET REPLACED THIS TRANSMISSION WITH A REBUILT TRANSMISSION,BECAUSE IT WAS STILL UNDER THE ORIGINAL FACTORY WARRANTY. THE WARRANTY ON THE REBUILT PART WAS FOR ONLY 90 DAYS. LAST YEAR WHEN WE HAD TO PAY FOR THE TRANSMISSION TO BE REPLACED ON MY 1997 VENTURE AFTER ONLY 52,000 MILES THE WARRANTY GIVEN WAS FOR ONE YEAR. *AK
