Consumer Description

VEHICLE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT GEARS PROPERLY, THEN SHIFTED EXTREMELY HARD INTO GEAR. THIS IS A GRAND PRIX GXP MODEL AND AS I HAVE RESEARCHED, THIS TRANSMISSION FAILS AT AN EXCESSIVE RATE. IT IS SUPPOSEDLY A HEAVY DUTY MODEL OF THE TRANSAXLES USED IN THE V6 MODEL, HOWEVER IT RUNS VERY HOT ( FACTORY EXTERNAL COOLER SHOULD HAVE BEEN USED) AND WEARS OUT VERY EARLY. IT HAS FAILED TO SHIFT PROPERLY NUMEROUS TIMES, CAUSING AN UNSAFE CONDITION FOR THE VEHICLE AND DRIVER. *TR
