Description of the problem | On september 19, 2020, purchased a vehicle and traded in a 2013 chev. On 09/27 we were driving home engine light comes on, the vehicle has less than 900 miles.. On 09/28 vehicle taken to the nearest dealership( not purchased from) in which no one would pay to have towed. It took a week to be told a new transmission was needed. Was given a run around on the timeframe for repair. Chrysler and dealership decided to have the vehicle towed to the dealership where the truck was purchased. Promised to have a transmission on 10/14. Chrysler called several days later and stated a transmission would be expedited and should arrive on 10/19. No transmission showed up. Chrysler stated a 2nd transmission was shipped and arrived at the dealership on 11/28. The truck was returned to us on 10/30. On 11/07 we were stopped at a drive-thru, tried to put the truck into drive. Would not shift into drive. Finally shifted but made a grinding sound through all gears. Returned vehicle to dealership on 11/10 due to winter storm and was informed on 11/13 another transmission is needed. I have been treated very poorly in this situation and this has cost me thousands of dollars due to my business and not having a truck. No one seems to care or will help just being told these things take time. Very unacceptable. Repeatedly told my vehicle is not part of a recall but on the service paperwork for the 1st transmission, it lists the cause as recall. |
