Lumina

Transmission was replaced at 6000 miles under 3/36 warranty, then at 76000 miles the transmission went again. This time I tried to have it replaced by the 5/75000 warranty and they said it was not covered. I have heard of other Chevy transmissions with overdrive having transmission problems. Considering the transmission only has 70000 miles that it should have been covered. Please help me is at all possible. Thank you
