Consumer Description

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING HER 09 ACADIA AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT QUIT SHIFTING AND THE ENGINE REVVED UP IF SHE WENT OVER 25 MPH. SHE LIMPED IT TO A LOCAL SERVICE STATION WHERE THEY INFORMED US THAT THE REVERSE CLUTCH PRESSURE PLATE WAS BROKEN AND NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. EVEN THOUGH IT WAS WITHIN GM'S 5YR 100K "POWERTRAIN WARRANTY", THEY "CONVENIENTLY" EXCLUDED THAT PROBLEM FROM BEING COVERED. I HAVE SEEN MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND IT IS[XXX] THAT GM ISN'T OWNING UP TO IT AND CORRECTING THE PROBLEM ON CURRENT VEHICLES. SO, NOW WE ARE OUT $3500 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION ON A CAR WITH ONLY 75K MILES! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR *UPDATED 1/15/2014 *JS
