Need GM Direct Number - Clutch Issues
Posted: Tue Sep 21, 2004 10:32 am
Alright, i've had enough. I was driving back from Hilton Head Island today, from my Honeymoon, may I add. And as I was driving back to Conyers GA (Just outside Atlanta), I was going up about a half-degree slope, basically slightly uphill, going 75 with the cruise control in 6th gear. All the sudden, I hear what sounds like grooved pavement, then I realize it's louder.My GT was redlining in cruise control.I can NO LONGER go UPHILL, at any angle, without slipping, in anything other than 1st or 2nd gear. I had to drive 150 miles downshifting to 4th to get enough grab to keep speed up any incline.The dealership I want to said the clutch has a 12,000 mile warranty on it. I have 26,000, and I went to see them a few months ago at 22,000. I did get the extended warranty. I need some sort of phone number to get a fire burning, because I should NOT be having this kind of trouble. I drive normally, I don't stress it out. I hit lift maybe every third day. I don't ride the clutch, I sit in neutral at stop lights. This is not acceptable, and I need to find out who to call to get something done.. I don't have $500 above my $370 a month loan payment to put into this car simply to keep it running less than 1.5 years after buying it..Anyone? Please?
