Consumer Description
ON 12/06/11, I WAS BACKING INTO MY DRIVEWAY WHEN MY SHIFT CABLE BROKE. IT MOVED MY TRANSMISSION FROM REVERSE INTO DRIVE SENDING MY CAR FORWARD ACROSS THE STREET. I AM THANKFUL IT HAPPENED THERE AND NOT IN A BUSY PARKING LOT SOMEWHERE. I HAD TO GET THE CAR TOWED TO A REPAIR STATION SINCE SATURN DOES NOT EXIST ANYMORE. I PICKED AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR STATION. IT TOOK TWO DAYS TO GET THE PARTS DUE TO A NEWLY DESIGNED BRACKET WHICH IS DIFFERENT FROM THE ONE ORIGINALLY INSTALLED. THIS MAKES ME BELIEVE THAT SATURN / GENERAL MOTORS IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. SHIFT CABLE & A SHIFT BRACKET WERE REPLACED. PARTS, LABOR AND TAXES CAME TO $322.68. *TR
