Consumer Description

AFTER TAKING OFF FROM A STOP MY TRANSMISSION WOULD SLAM WHEN GOING INTO 2 GEAR, SOMETIMES IT WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO 2ND GOING BACK INTO FIRST AND REVVING UP TO ALMOST 7K RPM AND THEN SHIFT JERKING THE CAR WHEN SHIFTING. TOOK IT TOO THE DEALERSHIP THEY FLASHED THE TRANSMISSION AND SAID THAT WOULD FIX IT. IT DID FOR ABOUT 24 HOURS THEN IT GOT WORSE SO I TOOK IT BACK, THEN THEY INSTALLED A "SOFTWARE" UPDATE TO THE TRANSMISSION, THEY MADE MY GAS MILEAGE VERY POOR, TOOK IT BACK A 3RD TIME THEY FINALLY FOUND THAT A VALVE WAS STICKING AND REPLACED IT NOW SEEMS TO BEING DOING FINE. IM NOT THE ONLY ONE ON HERE WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION ON THIS MODEL CAR. *TR
