Consumer Description

VEHICLE BEGAN HAVING SHIFTING ISSUES. FIRST GEAR FAILED TO CATCH WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOP. CHECKED TRANSMISSION FLUID AND FOUND FLUID WAS LOW. ADDED FLUID. PROBLEM RETURNED 1 TO 2 WEEKS LATER. CHECKED TRANSMISSION FLUID AND FOUND THAT FLUID WAS LOW AGAIN. ADDED FLUID. I LOOKED AROUND UNDER THE HOOD AND OBSERVED TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAKING AT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF ENGINE COMPARTMENT. FLUID APPEARS TO BE LEAKING FROM THE TRANSMISSION COOLER. AFTER RESEARCH, IT SEEMS THIS PROBLEM IS QUITE COMMON WITH THIS MODEL YEAR. THIS ISSUE, LEFT UNFIXED, WILL SURELY CAUSE TRANSMISSION FAILURE AND/OR A POTENTIALLY CATASTROPHIC ACCIDENT RESULTING IN INJURY OR DEATH. *TR
