Consumer Description

WAS HEADING HOME FROM FISHING TO HAVE EASTER DINNER WITH THE FAMILY I WAS IN THE RIGHT LANE GOING TO PASS A TRUCK ON THE EXPRESS WAY TO THE LEFT LANE, WHEN I WENT TO GIVE IT GAS TO GO AROUND HIM, I GOT NOTHING LIKE THE CAR WAS IN NEUTRAL, RPMS WENT UP AND I STARTED SLOWING DOWN .NO NOISE NO NOTHING SO I SAT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR 2 HOURS WAITING FOR A TOW TO GET IT HOME. SINCE IT WAS EASTER SUNDAY I HAD NO WHERE TO TOW IT TOO. I'VE BEEN DOING SOME RESEARCH AND LOOKS LIKE A TORQUE CONVERTER NOT 100 PERCENT SURE UNTIL I DIG INTO IT. BUT I DID BUY THIS CAR USED AND HAVE NOT HAD A PROBLEM IN 2 YEARS, GOT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW I WAS 1600 MILES OVER THE LIMIT SO NO WARRANTY. I'M DAM WELL NOT GOING TO PAY FOR THIS AND ILL BE CALLING THE FINANCE COMPANY TO COME GET IT STILL MAKING PAYMENTS, CAUSE IF IT GOING TO COST ME 1800 TO FIX IT, NO WAY CARS ONLY WORTH 2500. *TR
