Consumer Description

ONCE, THREE MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING, AND A SECOND TIME EIGHT MONTHS LATER, MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY WOULD NOT ENTER GEARS FROM NEUTRAL. IN THE FIRST EVENT, THE CAR WAS STILL WARMING UP, DRIVING QUICKLY. IN THE SECOND EVENT, THE CAR WAS AT RUNNING TEMPERATURE, DRIVEN FOR ONE HOUR, DRIVING CONSERVATIVELY. IN BOTH SITUATIONS, I HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CALL A TOW. ~1 HOUR LATER, THE VEHICLE WORKED FINE. NO BURNT CLUTCH SMELL, NO CHANGE IN THE FEELING OF THE CLUTCH/GEARS. DEALERSHIP COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM, CORPORATE IS DENYING THE PROBLEM.
