Consumer Description

WHEN DRIVING, NOTICED ON THE FREEWAY, IT WASN'T SMOOTH AT TIMES. THE TRANSMISSION'S SHIFTING WAS PRETTY ROUGH. NO INDICATION OF ANY ISSUES POPPED UP ON DASHBOARD. WHEN ARRIVING AT A FREEWAY RAMP, IT FELT LIKE I WAS HYDROPLANING, BUT ON GRAVEL. THEN, NOTICED WHEN PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR, WAS NOT GOING ANYWHERE, BUT FELT LIKE I WAS IN NEUTRAL. WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND TAKE A LOOK... TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS FINE... NOTHING POPPED UP ON THE DASHBOARD. NOTHING! THE INDICATORS FOR TIRES, OIL, ETC WERE SHOWING INFO, BUT NOTHING TO INDICATE IT HAD DIED OR IF THERE WERE ANY ENGINE ISSUES. HAD BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I HAD BOUGHT THE CAR 11 MONTHS AGO. THE MECHANICS WERE SAYING THAT THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN SUCH AN HUGE TRANSMISSION FAILURE BEFORE. THEY WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE THING. *TR
