Consumer Description

I HAVE BROUGHT MY TRUCK INTO SEWELL CADILAC TO HAVE IT CHECK "SEVERAL TIME" AND I KEEP GETTING THE SAME RUIN AROUND. I TOLD THEM THAT I HEAR A GRINDING NOISE LIKE "METAL TO METAL" AND I HAVE BEEN CONCERNED THAT IT WAS THE CLUTCH PLATE. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ALMOST TWO YEARS NOW, AND THEY TELL ME THAT THEY CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THEY SAID THEY DON'T HEAR ANY NOISE, AND THEY AREN'T GOING TO GO INTO THE TRANSMISSION TO CHECK IT OUT. I HAVE HAD BOTH SEAT HANDLES REPLACED BECAUSE THEY HAVE JUST SHEARED OFF AT THE METAL, AND THEY ARE BOTH STARTING TO GET DIFFICULT TO USE AGAIN. I DON'T THINK IT WILL BE MUCH LONGER BEFORE THEY BREAK AGAIN. *AK
