Consumer Description

AS WELL AS OTHER 626'S MY TRANSMISSION HAS BLOWN. WAS DRIVING IT, DOWN THE ROAD, THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHED ABOUT 7 TIMES, AND IT REVVED, THEN WENT DOWN AND REVVED WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. TOOK IT TO AAMCO TRANSMISSIONS AND THEY DROVE IT AND LOOKED AND TOLD ME THAT ITS SHOT. OF COURSE THIS ALL HAPPENS AFTER SPENDING $1200 FOR A DEALER ONLY CATALYTIC CONVERTER. WHY WOULD ANYONE BUY THIS CAR KNOWING THAT THEY FALL APART, AND HAVE DEALER ONLY PARTS!? *TR
