Consumer Description

TRANSMISSION SLAMS INTO GEAR AFTER STARTING FROM FIRST TO SECOND THEN FROM SECOND TO FIRST. GOT DIAGNOSTICS TEST DONE AT CANTINS IN LACONIA THEY STATED THAT THE PARK/NEUTRAL SWITCH WAS WET THEY CLEANED IT THEN STATED IT WAS FINE. PICKED CAR UP AND THEY HADN'T FIXED THE PROBLEM FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND REMAINS ON WITH THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURING. ALSO, HAD A RECALL ON THIS CAR FOR THE LATERAL CONTROL ARM BOOT ASSEMBLY . CANTINS SAID IT WAS FINE ON THE CAR BUT THINK THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH IT FOR WHEN I BRAKE IT HAS A GRINDING SOUND TO IT.
