Consumer Description

TRANSMISSION SHIFTING PROBLEM, NO LEAK. HAD SPEED SENSOR REPLACED AND WHILE THERE HAD FLUID FLUSHED AND CHANGED. THE DAY AFTER RETURNING HOME WITH VEHICLE NOTICED SMALL AMOUNT OF FLUID ON CARPORT. RETURNED TO DEALER WITHIN 2-3 DAYS. WAS TOLD THAT MAYBE SOME FLUID HAD SPILLED WHILE CHANGING. SEVERAL DAYS LATER NOTICED MUCH MORE FLUID ON CARPORT. RETURNED TO DEALER. NOW THEY SAY THE TORQUE CONVERTER SEAL WAS CRACKED. IT WAS NOT LEAKING AT ALL BEFORE BEING SERVICED. THIS SEAL JUST MYSTERIOUSLY DECIDED TO LEAK IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TRANSMISSION WAS SERVICED?
