Transmition filter destroyed my 1997 Corvette automatic transmissionby David
I purchased a transmission filter from Pepboys that caused me to destroy my 1997 Corvette automatic transmission. The filter was almost the same as the original but did not have an extension nozzle coming down to reach the fluid. As a result the transmission ran dry and now the reverse does not work. I did put back in the old filter and replaced the fluid which smelled burnt. When I went back to pepboys and explained to then that there Purilator ( P1211)filter was not the right filter for my corvette and caused this damage, they refused to believe me and did nothing. Now I have to deal with the cost of getting this fix with an unemployment income. What would be the cheapest way to fix this and is Purilater or Pepboys liable?
