Heard a ticking noise coming from under hood of vehicle while pulling away from fast food establishment. Pulled over to find that transmission dipstick tube had fractured. Went home and found that gm had issued a "customer care bulletin" back in 2012 about this issue. However, I received no letter about this problem. I contacted gm this morning and they refuse to fix the problem under this "bulliten". This should not be a "bulletin", but should be a recall since it involves potential problems with the transmission. A dipstick tube fracture can lead to water, dirt, and other contaminants getting into the transmission causing failure that could result in accidents causing serious injuries or death.
