Consumer Description

RADIATOR CORE IS CRACKED, WHICH IS CAUSING THE RADIATOR TO LEAK. IT IS UNDETERMINED AT THIS TIME IF ANY ANTIFREEZE HAS LEAKED INTO THE TRANSMISSION; HOWEVER, OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS, I HAVE ON A FEW OCCASIONS EXPERIENCED THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OPERATING ERRATICALLY (E.G., DOWN SHIFTING OR NOT SHIFTING INTO PASSING GEAR WHEN UNDER FULL POWER). THE VEHICLE IS SCHEDULED TO HAVE ITS RADIATOR REPLACED ON 11/30/2011, AND AT THAT TIME, I WILL HAVE THE TRANSMISSION FLUID ANALYZED TO DETERMINE IF ANY ANTIFREEZE HAS ENTERED THE TRANSMISSION. I PRAY IT HAS NOT! *TR
