General Motors C8 Corvette warranty on transmission filter change, VIN 1G1YC3D41P5124423

On 22 April 2024 I decided to have my 2023 Corvettes oil and filter and Transmission filter changed early at 4405 miles. Since I bought it new the first service was free. I would like to state I am NOT upset about cost ! What I believe a GOOD Service Manager should have told me that the recommended Transmission filter change is a mandatory again at 7500 mile "Break-in" period and if changed early it MUST be changed again at 7500 miles ! Now they have me for the $760. filter change after only 3095 miles. To me this is just a Service SCAM to get warranty paid and again from a loyal customer. How can I trust a Service manager who does not advise good service advice ? Advisor 2519, Dillon Dupre of Jeff Schmitt Fairborn Ohio. [protected]

Thank You

James C Bealer USAF Retired

Claimed loss: The cost of a C8 Transmission filter, GM estimate $760 if made to pay for work at 7500 miles

Desired outcome: My next C8 Transmission Filter change free at 7500 miles

I bought my yukon with 17k miles on it several years ago. From the time I drove it home, it had issues with the transmission. I took it in to be looked at and they said it was an issue with the fluid. Then it was an issue all around. Now, after I have dealt with it for several years under close care and observation, it is now causing so many issues that it...

I own a 2020 Cadillac XT6 with the Night Vision camera system. At some point, the camera was broken so it was replaced under warranty. There is a special tool required to re-calibrate the camera, yet no GM/Cadillac dealers in the Entire state of Colorado have the tool in order to perform the required re-calibration.

General Motors 2023 Chevy Silverado RST Z71 4x4 6cyl Diesel

Purchased a "2023 Chevy Silverado RST Z71 4x4 6cyl Diesel" on 7/18/2023 from Bayway Chevrolet in Pearland, TX. On 1/16/2024 while driving to work my truck would not exceed 30 mph and had to pay to get it towed to Ron Craft Chevrolet in Baytown, TX. It took the dealership 3 + weeks to identify that the wire harness needed to be replaced. They went ahead and replaced the wire harness since it was under warranty and then identified that the Turbo needed to be completely replaced, which unfortunately I was told is on a national backorder. I was given a rental that does not meet my family's needs not knowing that I would not have my truck for 63 days and counting. I have contacted the car rental establishment multiple times to try and get a larger vehicle, but they continuously have nothing available to swap out.

Claimed loss: $50 to tow the truck to the dealership and 63 days with the truck being at the dealership out of service.

Desired outcome: I would really appreciate it if GM could come up with a resolution on how the turbo can get replaced and I can have my truck back in my hands.

I need to share my frustrating experience with our 2024 Yukon from GM. After 2 years of dealing with issues in our 2022 Yukon, GM finally replaced it with a 2024 model.

General Motors gmc terrain

I bought my terrain new in 2015. There were several problems that were taken care of under warranty. Reasonable but inconvenient. This past year I had to replace the AC condenser. Over $1000.00 and now the computer has failed and around $1000.00 per the dealer.

I am a disabled veteran on a fixed income.

Is there any way you can help me with this?

Claimed loss: $2000.00

Desired outcome: Replace the computer at no charge.

General Motors my 2015 Chevy 2500HD duramax

My 2015 chevy is in immaculate condition with only 67000 miles on it. We recently had a poor quality DEF light go off on the dash, wihtch limits the distance and speed you can drive. We took it in for repairs and after 4 weeks in a shop, it ended up costing $6,600.00. Is this what GM expects customers to have to pay every time a light on the dash goes off. This is rediculaous. . It became apparent to me that they did not know exactly what the problem was and began replacing part after part. We basically ended up replacing the majority of the DEF system. hard to believe that all the parts failed at the same time. Does GM feel any culpability for the extreme high cost of a repair like this? I would think they would be very interested in figuring out why all these parts would fail at the same time and would offer to help out financially.I would appreciate any assistance that could be offered.

Desired outcome: Would like some type of rebate or compensation for this repair

General Motors Dealer advertising

Returned from Ancira Chevrolet in San Antonio trying to buy a truck. Whe we sat down with the numbers was to if you use the 1.9 special financing you could not, use the rebates and incentives? No where does it state that on the add and the very very small print eludes to it but does not specify!

I feel GM if falsely advertising and using bait and switch to sell units!

Claimed loss: None

Desired outcome: Internet add need to be absolutely clear. Price shown should be vehicle price bottom line!!!

General Motors Electronic parking brake on my 2018 GMC Acadia Denali.

On January the 19th of this year my 2018 GMC Acadia Denali had a dead battery.

I called AAA to come to my home to jumpstart the car. After he started the car, the electronic parking brake would not disengage. I called my service manager at Randy Marion GMC in Huntersville NC about the problem. He told me if I could not get it to release that I would have no option but to have my car towed to the dealership. I called AAA back out to tow my car and they literally had to drag my car up the rollback. After arriving at the dealership the tow truck driver said he did not know if he could get the car off the roll back or not. A mechanic finally came out and plugged something in below the steering wheel and the parking brake finally released. I can understand having to buy new battery but for the parking brake not to release and for me to have to pay for the tow and to have the rear brakes recalibrated should be covered by GMC.

Claimed loss: $204.67

Desired outcome: I have included photos of the bills I received. I understand it is my responsibility for the battery but I think GMC should cover the additional fees.

General Motors Lifter issues

2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 was in the dealership service department for over 3 months for Lifter issues (which is a huge issue on these vehicles and there is a class action suit) Due to strike and then just compliance issues from GM and no rental car available for me I have had to rent a car for those three months and still continue my payments to GMAC. After three months I finally gave up waiting to have my 2019 worked on and bought a new one and told the dealership to take the 2019 in trade.

I would like to be reimbursed for the rental car at the very least as this is a GMC Problem! That has been brewing for years. Advice?

I am acutally sending this complaint for my employer who is located in Louisville Kentucky. I am onsite contact for now
