2002 Chevy Tracker -hHard shifting, piston rattle, loud squeaking all at 2,000 miles

I bought my 2002 chevy tracker about 1 month ago, already at about 2000 miles I am experienceing problems. Hard shifting, piston rattle, loud squeaking from the passenger side dash area. When I took it in and left it over night, the next morning I was expecting the problems to be solved. Ha!

They have informed me that "this is quite normal for these cars". Funny how these noises, do not seem to happen when the tech is listening. Anyway I saw two other trackers in as well(brand new too). I guess Ill just have to cross my fingers for the next five years since my waranty doesnt seem to mean much.

Dont make the same mistake I did, buy a Toyota!
