i doubt that arbitration would repay you the money you're out, since everytime the arbitrators find for the manufacturer.. I am sure the abitrators are paid off to always side cases that way.. so arbitration is usually a waste of time..

if you want to get your money back, i would say you should get a good attorney...

Hmmm, if your tranny goes bad and they replace it under warranty, that has nothing to do with selling the car after because you don't want it. Frankly, it might even add a few bucks to the car because it has a new tranny. Arbitration because it went bad? Waste of time

What you might be thinking of is GAP insurance. If you total your car and you owe more than it's worth, GAP picks up the difference. If no GAP, you are out the difference. So, you need insurance to cover the insurance you already pay for but don't cover.

Just my opinion but if I was looking for a used car and both had 10,000 miles and one already had a new transmission, I would choose the one with the original. I would be hesitant of why did the tranny go in the first place? How was that car treated.

Plus if it was done at the dealership it would be on a carfax. And hits on a car fax usually drive the price down, not up.

Just my opinion tho.
