This is my opinion and we are entitled to one.
The transmission repair offers both value and peace of mind by fixing issues, improving performance and extending its lifespan.
This recall has enhanced my understanding of vehicle maintenance.
The transmission upgrade is more important than a transmission tune and comparable to other vehicle improvements like:
- High performance fluids
- Oil catch can
- Fuel filter
- Security systems
- Exhaust and engine modifications
- Engine tunes and upgrades
- Audio upgrades
- Wiring improvements
- BMR/other suspension components
- AFM disablers
- Paint protection film
- Stabilizer bars
- ETC, the list could go on for pages
Taking immediate action on the recall is more beneficial than waiting.
While we can be selective about which issues to address, ignoring transmission problems could lead to extensive damage.
Waiting for a class action lawsuit to resolve would be counterproductive, as these legal processes often take years and any potential settlement may not adequately cover repairs that could have been addressed when first identified.
By installing another upgrade to the vehicle, I know that the investment made will improve the ownership experience, and when I'm ready to sell the vehicle, I'll be able to explain to the next owner that everything was done to ensure the life of this Camaro for today and tomorrow.
