Consumer Description

TRANSMISSION WENT OUT WITH ONLY 60,000. DEALERSHIP CANNOT GIVE REASON OTHER THAN "SOMETIMES THEY JUST FALL APART". DEALERSHIP ALSO STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION IN THE PRELUDES ARE DESIGNED TO GO OVER 200,000 MILES. HAD A DIAGNOSTIC TEST DONE AND RESULT WAS CONVERTER COLLASPED AND DESTROYED TRANSMISSION. "SOMETIMES THEY JUST FALL APART" IS A VERY EXPENSIVE ANSWER FOR A CAR WITH ONLY 60,000 MILES.*AK
