Consumer Description

SOMETIME IN 2011 I NOTICED THE CAR BEGAN TO HESITATE WHEN SHIFTING GEARS (AUTOMATIC). I WAS ON A LONG DRIVE FROM FLORIDA TO MY HOME IN MARYLAND WHEN THE FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A THING UNTIL IT BEGAN TO HAPPEN ROUTINELY AT ALL SPEEDS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY ADVISED THAT THE VALVE BODY WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $4,500. I MISSED THE WARRANTY PERIOD BY 60 DAYS SO I WOULD HAVE TO PAY THE COST. THE TRUCK ONLY HAD 75,000 MILES ON IT AS I USUALLY USED MY OTHER CAR FOR MY DAILY COMMUTE. I'M LETTING THE VEHICLE SIT UNTIL I CAN AFFORD SUCH A COSTLY REPAIR. I GOT THE VEHICLE FROM A DEALER IN NY WITH ONLY 3000 MILES ON IT. I'M CERTAIN THIS WAS A DEFECT THAT PORSCHE KNEW ABOUT AND THEY SHOULD OFFER TO FOOT THE BILL FOR THE REPAIR.
