If I had one of these , and it were still under warranty (do you know the drivetrain warranty is 24 months or 24000 miles ?) ,I would take it to the dealer and have it checked out. Even though they say there is nothing wrong with it ,get it in writing from the service manager that they checked it and could find no problem . Then when it fails out of warranty , you have established that the problem existed previous to the expiration date . Using this ammo , call the ZONE service manager , and ask for GM assistance on the problem . They gave away so many hours of labor and transfer cases ,we called them Generous Motors ! At the time I left GM , there was an intensive investigation into S-10 transmission and tranfer case problems. Maybe it's under control now. The service manager should have all bulletins pertaining to factory-approved fixes .
