THE COMPLAINT IS ABOUT MY TRANSMISSION IN MY 1998 GMC SONOMA. ENGINE SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON SO I TOOK THE TRUCK IN FOR SERVICE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REBUILT OR REPLACED AS PER THE SERVICE BULLETIN. A $2,200-DOLLAR FIX. THE TRUCK IS NOT QUITE 3 YEARS OLD THOUGH I HAVE 59000 MILES ON IT. I CAN TELL YOU THAT IM THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS DRIVEN THIS TRUCK AND IT HAS HAULED NO MORE THAN GROCERIES I CALLED THE CUSTOMER CARE CENTER AND GM HAS SAID THEY WOULD PAY 40 PERCENT OF THE REPAIR REF CASE NUMBER: C05710638. AT FIRST I THOUGHT THIS WAS BETTER THAN NOTHING. BUT I BELIEVE THERE IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND GENERAL MOTORS SHOULD STAND BEHIND THE PRODUCT DUE TO THE NATURE OF THE FAILURE, WARRANTY OR NOT. THIS IS NOT RIGHT. THIS IS A MAJOR PART...

DECALS ON FRONT BUMPER AND DRIVERS SIDE DOOR WERE PEALING OFF. THESE WERE BOTH REPLACED ON SERVICE ORDER DATED 6-25-98. THIS HOWEVER TOOK 3 TRIPS, 3 DIFFERENT DAYS AND ABOUT 2 WEEKS TIME TO COMPLETE. DECALS ARE NOW BEGINNING TO PEAL OFF AGAIN. THIS TIME THE PASSENGER'S SIDE DOOR IS JOINING IN ON THE PEALING. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED IT FROM AND THEY SAID, "STONE CHIPS ON FRT, PASS. DOOR HAS DING FROM ANOTHER VEHICLES DOOR STONE CHIPS -DAMAGE NOT WARRANTABLE-STRIPED ARE WELL ADHERED". I FOUND THIS RATHER AMUSING BECAUSE I CAN TAKE A HOSE AND SPRAY THEM OFF. I ASSUME THEY MUST HAVE A HIGH POWER MICROSCOPE TO SEE A DING IN THE DOOR. I STILL CAN NOT FIND ONE IN THIS AREA. I NOW HAVE ANOTHER GMC DEALER WORKING ON REPLACING THEM FOR THE SECOND TIME. THEY HAVE THEM ON ORDER. 7-26-99
