Consumer Description

WAS DRIVING FROM DESOTO STATE PARK BACK HOME TO TUSCALOOSA WHEN THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO SLIP BETWEEN 2ND AND 3RD AND THEN AGAIN BETWEEN 4TH AND 5TH. ENDED UP HAVING TO DRIVE HOME DOING 40 MPH ON BACK ROADS. REBUILT THE TRANSMISSION TO THE TUNE OF $4000. TWO YEARS AND 40,000 MILES LATER THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AGAIN...SAME EXACT ISSUE. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM TO EVERY MECHANIC I HAVE DEALT WITH. THIS ISSUE HAS EXISTED SINCE THE CAR HIT THE MARKET. THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. NOW I HAVE A GIGANTIC PAPERWEIGHT SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY. THE VANS VALUE IS LESS THAN IT WILL COST TO FIX. PEASE INVESTIGATE.
