Consumer Description

FIRST TIME WAS A MODULATOR, WE PAID FOR IT TO BE FIXED AT ABOUT 34 TO 40000 MILES.AT THAT TIME CAR WAS SHIFTING REPEATEDLY. THIS TIME IT WAS SHIFTING VERY HARD AND JERKY, WHILE DRIVING 3RD GEAR WENT COMPLETELY, ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT ON INTERSTATE. NOW THE DEALER SAYS THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REBUILT, AT A COST OF $900 TO ME! SHOULDNT A TRANSMISSION LAST LONGER THAN THAT? THE CARS VALUE AS TRADE IN IS ONLY ABOUT 4000 WITHOUT THE TRANS PROBLEM. THAT WOULD MEAN I COULD ONLY GET 2800 IF I WAS LUCKY. WILL NEVER OWN ANOTHER. *AK
