Consumer Description
TRANSMISSION RECALL BUT NOTHING SENT TO TELL US TELLING US THAT THERE WAS A RECALL. WE WERE TOLD IT IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO CALL THEM. WHILE DRIVING AT 60 MPH WITH CHILDREN IN THE CAR THE CAR JUST STOPPED GOING FORWARD AND STARTED TO COAST TO A STOP. LUCKILY WE WERE ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BEFORE BEING TAIL ENDED AND POSSIBLY KILLED. AFTER TAKING THE CAR TO THE DEALER WE WERE TOLD ALL WAS OK BUT WHEN LEAVING IT WAS APPARENT THE PROBLEM STILL WAS THERE AFTER WE DROVE SOME DISTANCE. TOOK THE CAR BACK IN A COUPLE DAYS AND THEN WE WERE TOLD IT WOULD COST 4200 TO REPAIR BECAUSE IT WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL AND THERE WERE TO MANY MILES ON THE CAR. TRADED THE CAR IN AT AN ENTERPRISE AFTER TELLING THEM ABOUT OUR TROUBLE; THEY LOOKED UP THE VIN # AND SAID IT WASN'T REPAIRED AS THE RECALL REQUIRED. LOST A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF MONEY BUT WAS MUCH MORE CONCERNED WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR A DEADLY ACCIDENT.
