Consumer Description

THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER ON THE INTERSTATE. IT LOCKED DOWN INTO "LIMP HOME" MODE. WE HAD CRAWL ALONG THE BERM AT 30 MPH. THE PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED BY GM AS TRANSMISSION FAILURE DUE TO FAILING OF THE WAVE PLATE. THIS WAVE PLATE IS A KNOWN PROBLEM TO GM BUT AS OF NOW NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. I HAVE READ ONLINE BLOGS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND IT IS A FREQUENT AND UNSAFE FAILURE OF THIS DRIVE-TRAIN. OUR CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY BY YEARS BUT ONLY HAS 84K MILES ON IT. GM HAS OFFERED US A 50/50 SPLIT ON THE REPAIR WHICH THEY WOULD NEVER DO IF THEY WERE NOT AWARE OF THIS ISSUE. I THINK IT SHOULD BE THEIR FULL RESPONSIBILITY. PLEASE INVESTIGATE, THANK YOU. *TR
