| Description of the problem | Vin#: [xxx]; my vehicle is still in warranty and "baker nissan" in houston, tx has refused to honor "drivetrain warranty". The one piece "cast aluminum "bell housing" (the "major connection" between the "engine and automatic transmission, covering the major "torque converter" which is basically the "hydraulic turbine that converts the engine rpm's/torque into hydraulic torque within the transmission, to the driveshaft, to rear axles, to wheels. The "alum. Bell housing" has "hundreds of major cracks" all around the portion (bottom & passenger side) that i can see and feel and "marked in red" in about 4 of 8 pictures which appears as it is possible, i could eventually "disintegrate"..., which could possibly allow the transmission to spin... I "only wonder" if the "floor shifter" spun to the left, if it could brake my right leg "into"... Guess that could be worse case...? My bell housing (from my little. Knowledge of metallurgy) was "cast" with either "low grade aluminum", "too thin a casting", not "treated properly", etc, etc. Whichever or where ever the "casting mfg."; did not cast my "bell housing" alone with inferior aluminum alloy or thickness! He (mfg.) cast hundreds if not thousands of these inferior aluminum "bell housing" castings. If i have not already stated before, brad baker, owner(?) of baker nissan in houston, tx, yesterday june 1, 2017, (paraphasing him): "... You have been complaining about this (vibration and ultimately transmission "slipping") for 2 years now, (to my knowledge, truck never lifted & looked at, all checking done by computer) and we found nothing wrong... And for me not to bring my vehicle to baker nissan again..." ! 31,000+ miles, june 1, 2017 i'm near 63, and fighting bone cancer, can't afford a lawyer,... Don't really know what to do...? Help from you all would be appreciated...!!! Thank you, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). |
