Consumer Description

IT STARTED OUT AS A LOUD THUMP THAT ROCKED THE CAR WHEN SHIFTING INTO GEAR... THAT HAS CONTINUED BUT NOW IT ALSO WHEN ACCELERATING HESITATES THEN YOU HEAR THE THUMP AND THEN IT WILL ACCELERATE. I HAVE HAD THIS AT MY DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES NOW AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT. THEY CONTINUALLY SAY THE CANNOT "RECREATE" THE PROBLEM. I ALSO HAVE A AIRLEAK IN THE CAR THAT IS SO LOUD YOU CANNOT HEAR THE RADIO WHEN DRIVING ON A INTERSTATE. THEY ARE BLAMING THAT ON THE ANTENNA ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAR. I HAVE LESS THEN 20,000 MILES ON THIS CAR AND A EXTENDED WARRANTY. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO TO MAKE THEM FIX IT. I WORRY ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THIS, I HAVE A NEWBORN AND AM AFRAID IF IT IS THE TRANSMISSION, WHICH IT SOUNDS LIKE, THAT IT COULD SEIZE UP AND POSSIBLY CAUSE A ACCIDENT. *TR
