| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My 2000 chevy s10 4x4 (purchased from courtesy chevrolet, phoenix, az) broke down on 8/12/03 due to the transmission slipping out of gear and making a grinding noise between reverse & park when i stopped. the truck would not go into drive, and i had to be towed to the nearest dealer (gateway chevrolet in avondale, az) approx. 65 miles away. after the truck was checked out the next day, the service advisor called to say there was nothing wrong with the truck and that it shifted into all gears and ran normal. (note: there were 82,278 miles on the truck at that time and i had the 100,000 mile extended warranty). on several other occasions before and after this event, i experienced a sudden revving up of the engine, which stopped after several rapid depressions of the accelerator. on 4/11/05, while on vacation in california, the exact problem occured again, except this time, after being towed again to the nearest dealer (coalinga motors, inc., coalinga, ca), it was found the transmission was in need of replacement, as well as the shift forks in the transfer case. |
