Sucks buddy. Really sucks. But the reality is, shit happens. That's why they have a warranty. Like the other guys said as long as it's being replaced with a brand-new transmission I think it's pretty reasonable. As for the new versus repaired vehicle. It is still a new vehicle, and now even has a new transmission. Sounds new to me. A transmission swap is not going to harm the resell value of your vehicle. Not that you need to be worried about resale for a while, you bought a domestic vehicle brand-new. It'll lose 20% value in the first year anyway. Try to get some floor mats or something out of them and call it even.
