My2005 92x Saab 70,000m-has been diagnosed by both SAab and Suburu as needing a new transmission. General motors has agreed to pay $1200. of the $6000. repair. How can I get them to be responsible for more???I gave them all my maintenance records. ---

If the Powertrain Warranty has expired, as it appears, then any payment from GM is purely “at their discretion”. No monetary assistance is required of a car manufacturer once the warranty has expired, so I am honestly surprised that they are offering you $1,200. ---

Is this a manual or automatic. Either case you can source a used one from a wrecked Subaru Impreza or WRX if an Aero as it near identical in the powertrain and majority of car. I still would get some quotes from indepedents for the work and possibly fixing or rebuilding vs overpriced Saab replacement.
