Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE WAS EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS SHIFTING INTO OVERDRIVE, THEN ONCE IN OVERDRIVE, I WAS LOSING THE CAPABILITY TO ACCELERATE ON THE HIGHWAY AND OTHER AREAS OF SPEEDS GREATER THAN 40 MPH. I NOTICED TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAKING FROM THE TRANSMISSION AND TOOK IT TO AN AUTO REPAIR SHOP. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION COOLER HAD FAILED COMPLETELY ALLOWING RADIATOR FLUID TO MIX INTO THE TRANSMISSION FLUID CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE TRANSMISSION. THE REPAIR FOR A NEW RADIATOR AND INSTALLATION, AS WELL AS A RIGOROUS FLUSHING OF THE TRANSMISSION COST $599.00. I AM CURRENTLY, AS OF THIS DAY, IN NEED OF A NEW, USED, OR REBUILT TRANSMISSION BECAUSE OF DAMAGE CAUSED BY THE FAILURE OF THE TRANSMISSION COOLER WITHIN THE RADIATOR. *JS
