Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING, I SUDDENLY STARTED GETTING TRANSMISSION "SLIPPAGE". ENGINE WOULD REV UP, BUT NO POWER TO THE WHEELS. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. THERE WAS A STRAWBERRY MILKSHAKE COLORED FLUID COMING OUT OF MY RADIATOR OVERFLOW CONTAINER. TURNS OUT THE THAT TRANSMISSION COOLER INSIDE THE RADIATOR BROKE LOOSE AND ALLOWED ENGINE COOLANT TO MIX WITH THE TRANSMISSION FLUID. APPARENTLY IT'S NOT AN UNKNOWN PROBLEM. I'M LUCKY THAT I WAS IN A RURAL RESIDENTIAL AREA AND NOT ON THE INTERSTATE. *TR
