TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1995 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED ON THE VEHICLE. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED WITH A REBUILT TRANSMISSION. WITHIN A YEAR AND A HALF, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AGAIN. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT IT SEEMED AS IF THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS NOT BEING COOLED FOR SOME REASON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT JUST BEFORE THE TRANSMISSION FAILED, HE COULD SMELL BURNING TRANSMISSION FLUID EACH TIME. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED AGAIN WITH ANOTHER REBUILT TRANSMISSION. WITHIN NINE YEARS, THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED A TOTAL OF FIVE TIMES EVERY YEAR AND A HALF. THE CONTACT HAD THE TRANSMISSION REBUILT AT THE COST OF $1,700. THERE WERE NO RECALLS FOR THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE LESS THAN 21,838. UPDATED 05/15/09 *BF UPDATED 05/18/09.*JB

I HAVE PREVIOUSLY CORRESPONDED WITH YOUR AGENCY (ODI# 10098003) ON 10/29/04. ALTHOUGH GENERAL MOTORS HAS RECENTLY ISSUED AN ANTILOCK BRAKING SYSTEM RECALL, IT INCLUDES ONLY CERTAIN MODELS AFTER 1999. BE ADVISED EARLIER YEAR MODELS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM, AND REPAIR TO THOSE HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED. I HAVE INCURRED $200.00 IN REPAIRS CAUSED BY THE PROBLEM WITH CORROSION DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL. MY MECHANIC HAS DISABLED THE SYSTEM BY REMOVAL OF THE FUSE TO PREVENT THE ACTIVATION OF THE ABS SYSTEM FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I THEREFORE HAVE A SYSTEM DESIGNED FOR SAFETY WHICH IS COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY USELESS. AND IN NEED OF REPAIR. LETS GET GM TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM IN TOTAL. *NM
