WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED IT . THE WAVE PLATE IN THE TRANSMISSION HAD EXPLODED.WHEN WE EXPLAINED THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 52,000 MILES THEY OR GM WOULD DO NOTHING FOR US.WE FIND THAT RIDICULOUS.THEY ONLY USED THAT TRANSMISSION FOR 2 YEARS AND ABRUPTLY STOPPED USING IT.WE HAVE READ OF MANY OF THESE WITH THE SAME ISSUE ON THE INTERNET SITES. KNOW THEY WANT US TO PAY NEARLY $5000.00 TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION.ONCE AGAIN THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 52,000 ORIGINAL MILES IS GARAGE KEPT AND IS PAMPERED .THIS IN OUR MIND SHOULD BE A RECALL AND THEY SHOULD HAVE SOME RESPONSIBITY IN THIS ISSUE AT GENERAL MOTORS.ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED.ALSO WEDNESDAY 5/19/2021 THE DEALER WILL HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE 2 WEEKS.ANOTHER JOKE.
