Consumer Description

BROKE DOWN, CAR FELT LIKE IT WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO SECOND GEAR THEN JUST DIED. DEALER FOUND A CRACKED WAVE PLATE, CRACKED CLUTCH HOUSING (CLUTCHES WORN), CYLINDER EXCESSIVELY WORN, TORQUE CONVERTER FULL OF METAL. NO SIGN OF ANY COMPUTER ALERTS OR CHECK ENGINE SIGNALS UNTIL BREAK-DOWN. REPAIRED ALL FOR $2820.15. SAID IT WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED IF UNDER 100,000 MILES. SOUNDS LIKE PLANNED OBSOLESCENCE, OR JUST POOR MANUFACTURING. NO MORE AMERICAN CARS FOR ME. *TR
