Consumer Description

OWN A TOYOTA MATRIX 2003 XR HAVE BEEN HEARING ODD SOUNDS FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS. HAD MECHANIC DO A CHECK AND COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. NEVER STOPPED TO THINK IT COULD BE THE TRANSMISSION ON A MANUAL TRANSMISSION WITH LESS THAN 100K MILES. A WEEK LATER, DRIVING ON HIGHWAY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION TYPE SOUND AND SWERVED OFF THE ROAD. MECHANIC SAID ITS A BAD BEARING IN THE TRANSMISSION. TOYOTA HAS YET TO RESPOND TO MY COMPLAINT. THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. *TR
