Consumer Description

TRANSMISSION LINES LEAKED AND WERE TIGHTENED UNDER WARRANTY. TRANSMISSION LINES STARTED LEAKING AGAIN BUT THIS TIME I HAD TO PAY BECAUSE ALL OF A SUDDEN THE LINE WAS FRACTURED DUE TO SOME EXTERNAL CAUSE. TRANSMISSION STUTTERS AND SHIFTS HARD ESPECIALLY BETWEEN 25 AND 35 MPH. STARTED COMPLAINING TO DEALER AROUND 30,000 MILES, OF COURSE WHEN I RETURNED FOR THE 3RD TIME TO COMPLAIN AT JUST OVER 37,000 MILES THEY HAD NO PREVIOUS RECORD IN THEIR COMPUTER SO I HAD TO PAY TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. THEY STILL INSIST NOTHING IS WRONG AND THE PROBLEM IS GETTING WORSE. THE COOLANT RESERVOIR IS ALWAYS ALMOST EMPTY NO MATTER HOW MUCH I POUR IN. DEALER INSISTS THIS IS NORMAL AND PRESSURE TESTS INDICATE NOTHING IS WRONG.. IF THE SYSTEM IS SEALED WHERE IS ALL OF THE COOLANT GOING?*AK
