About the only GM that compares well with its competitors through the small to midsize vehicles is the Trax. I would like nothing better to just drive GMs. My wife in a Cadillac me in a Chevy minivan and Colorado. Part of my day is comprised of reading and watching comparisons of automobile. I could buy a car today. I’m back to research the next.
I had a similar problem years ago and it ended up being the positive battery cable that ran to the main fuse block/ECU. It looked fine but when I sliced it open it was badly corroded.
I'm the original poster of this thread; I'm 85,000 miles now with no transmission issues after they did the fluid change without filter at 45,000. I plan on a fluid change AND filter in another 5,000 miles and agree with you on staying to witness what happens if possible. Ideally I would have done the filter at 45,000 too, but my original dealer was incompetent. I've since moved on and get service done by another more reputable dealer, so I'm hopeful they follow the correct procedure at 90,000.
