    All of my documentation is in my vehicles glove box which is currently still at AAMCO. I took my 2010 ****** Ultima Coupe there have the transmission rebuilt and payed **** dollars. They had my vehicle for almost a month when I went to get it. 400 miles later my vehicle left me stranded when the transmission failed. The vehicle was towed back to AAMCO in which they had my vehicle another month. A week later my vehicle started making a screaming noise at **** rpms and above. I take my vehicle back again to AAMCO where I am told that there is nothing wrong with it , clearly that is untrue. I decided to take it to a different AAMCO and was told that there was clearly something wrong with it but they couldnt fix it that I had to take it back to where I had the work done because of the warranty. Now currently my vehicle is setting at AAMCO and has been there for another month. I have called several times but keep getting excuses like they are busy, personal issues. This is not my problem and I have told them that. I feel like they are jerking me around until April when my warranty expires. I have put **** miles on my vehicle in a little less then 18 months because Im afraid I will be stranded. Would like to have my vehicle fixed properly and a extended 12 month warranty. This has been a huge hassle for me to get to and from work over almost 18 months and costly.
