Consumer Description
I HAVE A CHEVROLET CRUZE, I BOUGHT IT IN OCTOBER OF 2010; AFTER A FEW MONTHS I DISCOVERED THAT MY CAR WAS SHIFTING ROUGHLY. I ALSO NOTICED THAT MY CAR WOULD NOT GAIN SPEED AT A NORMAL RATE. I HAVE FOUGHT FOR 2 YEARS TO HAVE MY CAR INSPECTED AND REPAIRS TO BE DONE; NOTHING HAS COME OF IT YET. I NOTIFIED GM WITH THE ISSUE AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD PUT IN A NEW TRANSMISSION. I WAS ALSO NOTIFIED THAT THE ISSUE WOULD PERSIST, IT IS THE WAY MY MODEL TRANSMISSION WORKS. I KNOW THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN, MY CAR HAS ALREADY LEFT ME STRANDED ONCE. I BELIEVE THAT GM IS GOING UNDER THE RADAR AND JUST TRYING TO APPEASE ME WITH A NEW TRANSMISSION. I ALSO BELIEVE THAT MORE CAN BE DONE FOR THE PROBLEMS THAT PERSIST IN MY CAR AND GM IS REFUSING FOR IT TO BE DONE. MY CAR IS A SAFETY HAZARD FROM THE NUMEROUS RECALLS TO THE TRANSMISSION AND COMPUTER DEFECTS. GM IS TRYING TO PUSH ME INTO ACCEPTING AN AMOUNT THAT IS LESS THEN HALF OF WHAT I HAVE PAID INTO THE CAR OR TAKE THE TRANSMISSION. I HAVE NO OTHER OPTIONS FROM THEM. I WOULD VERY MUCH APPRECIATE SOME GUIDANCE IN THIS MATTER. THANK YOU *TR
