Look at what I finally got back!
Five months. New transmission. New engine. One lawyer. Numerous certified letters and phone calls... June 2 - Oct 21...
Recap:
I paid my truck off on a Thursday.
The following Wednesday I lost my transmission.
That was the last week of May.
I got my truck back, but something was wrong. She was running really rough.
They said the truck needed a tune-up.
I agreed...
Long story short:
They cracked my block when they snapped a spark plug doing the tune-up... They would not admit they did anything wrong and said I needed to pay them $6600.00 for a new engine... Five months later and with the help of a lawyer, we reached a fairly agreeable settlement, and I have my truck back.
So far so good. About 200 miles into driving, and so far so good. She is running smoothly.
I am still not ready to recommend American Transmission to anyone just yet; I probably won't ever. I am still ticked at the whole situation, plus the condition my truck was in when returned. I am thankful though, that they admitted at least some liability and fixed my truck.
After driving a borrowed 4-door gold sedan, I am starting to feel a little more like myself again!
Today she gets a bath, and pending the results of a follow up appointment next week, hopefully this chapter can be considered closed!
...Black cloud lifting...
