Consumer Description

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND IT FELT LIKE TRANSMISSION WAS SLIPPING . WE HAVE A 6 SPEED MANUAL TURBO CHEVY SONIC. WHILE THE CAR WAS UNDER THE 36000 WARRANTY AN ENGINE FAULT LIGHT CAME ON AND WE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER. I BELIEVE THEY SAID IT HAD TO DO WITH TURBO ? THEY REPAIRED THE FAULT AND NOW AT 50000 MILES IT APPEARS THE TRANSMISSION HAS LET GO AND/OR CLUTCH ? RECALL 14234 APPEARS TO BE WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR VEHICLE OR THE AFOREMENTIONED TURBO PROBLEM THEY WORKED ON AND WANT US TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT MAYBE A RECALL ITEM OR FAULTY WORKMANSHIP DURING WARRANTY PERIOD. *TR
