Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING APPROACHING A STOPLIGHT, I RECEIVED A "GEARBOX MALFUNCTION. OK TO CONTINUE DRIVING WITH LIMITED FUNCTIONALITY" ERROR. THE CAR THEN BARELY ACCELERATED AND I COULD NOT GO MORE THAN 20MPH (I WAS ON A BUSY ROAD SPEED LIMIT 35MPH BUT EVERYONE GOES ABOUT 50). I WAS ABLE TO FINALLY GET IT TO DRIVE WELL ENOUGH TO GET IT TO THE DEALER. DEALER SAID IT NEEDS A NEW CIRCUIT BOARD WHICH IS NOT COVERED BY ONLY THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY, AS IT IS CONSIDERED AN ELECTRONIC COMPONENT.
