[net.auto] Request for info on GM 200 METRIC transmission problems

*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE ***
The 200 METRIC transmission in my 1980 Olds is shot.  The car is 64 months
old and has been driven 53K miles. The transmission started failing last June.
I want advice on how to deal with GM.  (The dealer is not being helpful,
maybe because I am not a regular customer of their service department.)
I read the November, 1983, issue of Consumer Reports and found out
about the FTC-GM arbitration agreement and about New York State's
lawsuit.  Any additional information, particularly concerning cars
approximately five years old, will be useful.

                              Thanks,
                              S.E. Polanco
