| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Wench holding spare tire on 2002 chevy trailblazer was stuck and would not lower the tire. having a flat tire is bad enough but being told that they would have to cut and destroy the wench mechanism in order get the spare to put it on in place of the flat one was not good news. i told aaa to proceed and cut the cable and mechanism so they could change my flat tire. i found this is not under warranty and it cost $137.00 to replace the wench. this happened in august 2006/ in october, my wife had a flat and guess what the wench would not lower the spare and again the mechanism had to be replaced. i put my spare on my wife's 2004 chevy trailblazer so she could continue her trip to iowa. her wench was replaced at a cost $143.00. obviously this is a problem with chevy trailblazers as it happened with my 2002 and my wife's 2004. there is never a mention in the owner's manual about any maintenance on the wench. to find the problem when you have a flat is not the right time tom discover the wench doesn't work. i filed a complaint with general motors on monday of this week and was told that all complaints are reviewed by supervisors. i simply replied that it was highly unlikely that i would ever hear from anyone at gm about this problem. *nm |
