Description of the problem | Since purchasing my vehicle in 2016 i have had multiple issues. I have always noticed a drip of oil in my garage that wasn't consistent and when telling my dealership about it they stated they would look into it and found nothing. I was driving down the road and the side door black fascia flew off, the dealership replaced 3 stating it was still under the 34k warranty. I had requested they replace/secure the 4th and was told it was fine and didn't need replacing. I returned for an oil change about 6 months later and reported the one that was not replaced is now loose and was told by the dealership i was out of my warranty period and would be charged an hour labor as well as parts, costing roughly $120. 00. I then had my ac go out in summer of 2019 and had that replaced supposedly a recall. When i took my car to the dealership for an oil change in fall 2019 i mentioned my car was not stopping properly while braking and they informed me there was a current recall that would fix the issue and that was performed. I was still noticing the braking issues. In nov. 2019 i started to experience misfiring with the transmission and not shifting correctly. I made an appointment with the dealership and on the way to the dealership it worsened and i had to get it towed. I was informed i would not get a loaner car as all of theirs were out to people with parts required without an eta from gm. I was called 4 days later as i had not heard back and was told my car needed a replacement transmission as well as a new vacuum pump as this had failed and is the reason for the hard braking. The transmission was replaced and i was told to pick up my vehicle because the vacuum pump is on back-order without an eta and "i still have my abs that will assist with stopping". |
