Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I purchased a 2002 chevy trailblazer the transmission went out at 15053 miles with previous owner 2-3 shift solenoid in transmission replaced. the transmission went out with me at 33431 miles, still under factory warranty. dealership found shell stripped out reaction carrier teeth broke replaced all clutches replaced 2/4 band. at 83029 miles transmission went out with me again. vehicle is now out of warranty. dealership found reaction sun gear stripped inside reaction sun shell. replaced sun gear and shell & o/h transmission. i called gm customer service and asked them to replace the entire transmission because i felt something was causing these parts to keep going bad and this is the 3rd time. i felt there could be one part that came from the factory in this transmission as a defect. gm agreed to pay parts if i paid labor to replace parts not replace complete transmission. this cost me $840.00. now it is 119000 miles and transmission gone again. i called gm to explain to them that this is the 4th time and i requested a new transmission and a refund of my $840.00 from last time because for some reason this transmission has a pattern of going out at approximately every 30 to 40000 miles. gm would not assist me with any assistance. the diagnostic this time shows would not shift out of 1st but to determine what parts were bad it would have to be broken down. i was hoping gm would assist me in this matter but i seem to get no where. i hope you can help! *tr
