I have a pampered 2005 GMC Envoy. 6 cylinder
Have maybe pulled my motorcycle with it a few times and it is less than 1000 lbs, rolling weight. Otherwise I put 58K miles on it, when the transmission failed without warning. Check engine light came on the night before while my wife had it on vacation over 100 miles from home.
Had it towed home at my expense and got the GMC dealer to tell me it was a failed tranny. No offer or suggestion to call GM customer service. I needed to get it fixed so I had it fixed. $2800 for a rebuilt.
A week later I call GM Customer Service and ask what they can do for me.. and the answer is "nothing, we have a policy that if you paid for it, that's it".
So.. I guess this is GM paying the little guy back for buying American.
Next time, I'll buy a Honda. ...or anything else besides GM.
