Consumer Description

I HAVE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS WITH MY 2004 TRAIL BLAZER I FIRST NOTICED IT WHEN I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT 55 AND ALL THE SUDDEN IT WAS LIKE THE VEHICLE WAS PUT IN NEUTRAL AND I PULLED TO THE SIDE SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND TRIED TO START AGAIN AND IT TOOK OFF FINE LIKE NOTHING WAS WRONG. THEN A DAY OR 2 LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED SO I HAD IT TOWED TO THE GARAGE. THEY TOLD ME MY TRANSMISSION WAS BAD I WAS SHOCKED WITH ONLY 58,000 ON THE VEHICLE THEY SHOWED ME THE DIPSTICK WAS RUSTED RIGHT OFF AND ASKED ME WHAT HAPPENED I THEN ASKED THEM WHAT HAPPENED. SO LONG STORY SHORT THEY WANTED TO CHARGE $3000 TO REPLACE BECAUSE THE WARRANTY RAN OUT AT 36,000 I REFUSE TO PAY WHEN THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR A PROBLEM THEY ADMIT THEY HAVE. AND TO THINK THE GOVERNMENT OR SHOULD I SAY WE THE PEOPLE JUST BAILED THIS COMPANY OUT AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED IF THEY ARE GOING TO MAKE JUNK LET GO BANKRUPT. *TR
