| Auto transmission starts out in 2nd gear for no reason. i bought extended warranty for this car when i bought it and the dealership cannot fix. after 10 trys i want the transmission replaced. obviously technicians are not qualified to fix problem. i tried to sell the car and was unsuccessful because it started out in 2nd gear when someone was test driving it. what good is the warranty doing me?!?!! the differential-(loud noise) was finally fixed after the 3rd time of going into the shop. you should not sell a gm protection plan if you do not plan to back up you product!!! | |||
