Consumer Description

AFTER ONLY HAVING THIS NEW TRUCK FOR 2 DAYS THE TRANSMISSION WAS TAKEN OUT OF IT DUE TO A TICKING NOISE IN THE ENGINE. THE MECHANIC WAS ADVISED BY GM TO TAKE OUT THE TRANSMISSION AND REPLACE A FLYWHEEL. AFTER 2 WEEKS OF WAITING FOR A PART I PICKED UP MY TRUCK. THE NEXT DAY THE NOISE WAS BACK. I HAVE HAD 2 GM REPS LISTEN TO THE NOISE. THE SECOUND REP TOLD ME THAT IT WAS "ENTRAINED GASSES" AND THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT. I DID NOT PURCHASE THIS TRUCK MAKING THE NOISE AND DO NOT WANT IT ANYMORE AFTER THE TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN TAKEN OUT.*AK
