07 Rearend explodes!!! damn my luck!!
 
well this is how the day started i was goingdown a road called nationway, a 50 mph road and well i felt a tug......no noise, just a tug, the i heard 5 or 6 REALLY loud bangs, i knew it was the rearend, but it locked up compltely before i could do anything, and sent me sideways, with me thinking i was gonna roll it, but i didnt! Anyways SC_CHEVY_LOVER came and got me, and i had a tow truck come get my truck and take it to the dealership.....the hole in my rear cover was big enough to put a 50 cent piece through, and my drive line broke at the rear yoke....AND my tranny was pouring fluid......!!!!WTF???!!!??? well went to the dealership to pick up a rental car, and the stupid dumbass lady behind the counter says she can not issue me a rental car until she sees that i am not at fault for what happened to my truck....wanna talk about choke someone!! ohh i was pissed. anyways just had to let that out, im extremely dissapointed in my Chevy right now, 4000 miles, and this happened!!?? i dunno, but the lady called and said it was complete drivetrain mechanical failure!!has anyone ever had something like this happen?? i know it is getting fixed under warranty, but this truck has me worrying!

Well it must just be a bad week for all of us. I was planning on putting my tax return in to my truck for some more power. When monday my lovely wifes car broke a valve spring and bent a rod. Well lets just say there goes all my tax return. Well hope all goes good with your trucks Bigtexaschevy and SC_CHEVY_LOVER.Sadly my cai and exhaust and tires are just going to have to wait.[:@]

Yep, is truck was a site to see!! I've never scene a bigger hole in rear cover than the one he had. I swear if someone would have been walking, they would have probably sustained massive trauma from flying gears!:D

I have never in my life scene more bad luck happen to a bunch of guys in my life!! Hunt4game29 I'm sorry to hear about your wifes car and you getting screwed out of your tax return. I suppose when it rains, it really does pour.

BigTexasChevy - dude you have been hanging around SC_CHEVY_LOVER for way to long bro. His bad mojo is coming to you, if I had not been having **** myself (thankfully not truck related (knock on wood)) I would avoid you guys like the plague. What have you guys been doing soo wrong that has caused all this? Anyway, sorry to here about your pile man, I can't believe that gave you that much ****. But stick with it, your truck will survive and soon this will all be nothing but a bad dream. Keep your head up man. By the way (if you ask SC_CHEVY_LOVER he will explain, its a medic thing) do you have any pics of the carnage??

Sounds like you need to appeal to a higher athourity and gfet a new truck all together. Sometimes The manufacturer will buy a vehicle back so they can research what the problem is in case of a recall. that way they won't spend alot of money in recall hell and you can get another new truck.

Remember,
The sqeaky wheel gets the grease, but you get a lot more attention with something louder.

RE: 07 Rearend explodes!!! damn my luck!!
 
well they gave me an offer, an additional warranty full bumper to bumper.....7 years 110, 000 miles is what it all adds up to!!! so im gonna take it, and never worry about my problems again for now, but should osmething else this stupid happen again, im parting ways and going for a new one whether GM likes it or not.
