Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2000 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX GP AND WHEN IT WOULD RUN FOR AWHILE, OR I WOULD DRIVE A LOT IN A DAY, THE TRANSMISSION SEEMED TO SHIFT HARDER. ON THE HIGHWAY IT WOULD BE ESPECIALLY BAD OR FROM A TRAFFIC LIGHT GOING FROM STOPPED TO HIGHWAY SPEED. IT WOULD SHIFT HARD AND SOUNDED TERRIBLE. I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP, AND THEY FOUND OUT THEY WOULD HAVE TO RE-BUILD MY TRANSMISSION! AT A TOTAL COST OF OVER $2500 TO ME! HAD I NOT TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO THE SHOP, MY TRANSMISSION WOULD HAVE EVENTUALLY FAILED, AND COULD HAVE LED TO A MORE SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND A MORE COSTLY REPAIR. *TR
