Consumer Description

THE FIRST PROBLEM HAPPENED ON 4/24/03 TRANSMISSION STUCK IN SECOND GEAR WOULD NOT SHIFT. DEALERSHIP REMOVED AND DISASSEMBLED TRANSMISSION. FOUND A LOT OF METAL FILINGS AND FOUND TORQUE CONVERTER FAILURE. THEY REPLACED CLUTCHES AND CONVERTER, REASSEMBLED. THE SECOND TIME THE TRANSMISSION BLEW. THE DEALERSHIP INSPECTED TRANSMISSION AND THERE WAS A HOLE IN THE CASE, DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE. THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION. THE BRAND NEW FROM THE FACTORY TRANSMISSION IS DOING THE SAME AS WHEN WE FIRST BOUGHT IT. I BELIEVE IT IS A LEMON.
