At 14,000 miles I blew 2nd gear out of my tranny... who woulda thunk something like that might be possible?
26 hours of quoted book labor and $1,200 of parts came to a grand total of nearly $5,000. Unfortunately crap occurs.
Thank GOD my warranty covered this... and I'll be getting as much extended warranty as I can. If I go the whole extra 4 years and not use it, it will still have paid for itself with peace of mind IMO.
Also, you don't have to get the full 4 years; I think you can get 2 or 3 for cheaper.
I'll be doing exactly this!
