[QUOTE="13COBRA, post: 16614558, member: 138337"] Not really. Say they were able to fix it for $800 the first time. They saved $3,700. If they fixed it for $1,400 the second time, they save $2,300 overall and $3,100 this trip. If they fixed it for $1,100 the third time, they saved $1,200 overall, and $3,400 this trip. If they fixed it for $900 the 4th time, they saved $300 overall and $3,600 this trip. If they fixed it for $1,800 the 5th time, it cost them $1,500 overall, but saved them $2,700 this trip. If they fixed it for $2,200 the 6th time, it cost them $3,700 overall, but saved them $2,300 this trip. ....and so on. Not ever car with your issues would take a transmission, so it's their job to go through the steps of corrections in order to come up with the least cost for the manufacturer. Does it always work out in the consumer or manufacturer's best interest, no...but the majority of the time it does, which allows them to do it this way. Kinda like house insurance. If everyone had a $50k claim this year, all insurance companies would be broke...but they're banking on people having a wide variety of issues and some with none at all. [/QUOTE]
