i bought this truck brand new off the show room floor. about 1,000 miles the transmission fail and was like in neutral when it was in drive. took it to dealer and they did the double transmission flush. got it back and it was fixed... well until the next morning when i had a driveway full off tranny fluid, called to have it towed from my driveway and it ended up being the rear mainseal and the tranny pan. the main seal was the cause of the slipping transmission and "MR GOODWRENCH" supposivly over tightened the bolts and squished the gasket on the pan. and about roughly 5,000 miles the seat had started on fire because the electric seat motor burned up and the truck stunk like burnt rubber, so they replaced the seat, carpet, headliner, and shampooed the back seat and passenger seat just to get the smell out. and off coarse the rear main seal blew again shortly after that, it was reapaired and then it blew again at 10,000 miles. i then took legal action and i guess by law if the same thing goes wrong three times it is concidered a lemon. GM baught the truck back with out going to court. but i paid $27,999 for the truck. i put 3,000 down and paid on it for 9 monthsso over all the truck costed $32,306 after tax and liscens. but they only gave me what i owed on the truck wich was $26,300 well wheres the $6006 that i paid. i didnt get that back so basicly i paid $6006 to drive the truck for 9 whole wopping months what a rip off!!!
