Consumer Description
MY TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN WORKED ON 3 TIMES NOW. IT'S BEEN A BURNT CLUTCH TWICE AND THE THIRD WAS A RECALL THEY FIXED ON THE TRANSMISSION. AND NOW FOR A 4TH TIME, I NEED TO TAKE MY CAR IN TO BE WORKED ON BECAUSE OF THE TRANSMISSION. MY CAR WON'T GO IN REVERSE. SOMETIMES IT WILL BEGIN TO GO FORWARD INSTEAD OF BACKWARDS. WHEN I PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE FROM PARK, I CAN HEAR THE GEARS GRIND. THE CAR SHUDDERS AND JERKS LIKE IT USUALLY DOES. BUT INSTEAD OF THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE LIGHT COMING LIKE IT DID THE FIRST THREE TIMES, NOW THE ENGINE LIGHT TURNS ON BUT I KNOW THIS IS THE TRANSMISSION BECAUSE IT'S HAPPENED 3 TIMES BEFORE. EACH TIME MY CAR HAS BROKE DOWN BECAUSE OF THE TRANSMISSION, I WAS ON POPULATED ROADS AND I COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN IN A CAR ACCIDENT.
