Consumer Description

I HAVE REVIEWED ALOT OF WEBSITES AND IT SEEMS THERE HAVE BEEN ALOT OF TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS REPORTED ON THIS MODEL OF CAR. SOME COULD HAVE LED TO ACCIDENTS, WHILE OUR CAR SO FAR INVOLVES ONLY TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAKEAGE AND OCCASIONAL NOISE. BUT, I AM AFRAID THIS MAY BE PRELUDE TO A FULL FAILURE. IT SEEMS PRUDENT TO CONSIDER A GENERAL RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION SINCE THERE SEEM TO HAVE BEEN SO MANY COMPLAINTS POSTED ON THE INTERNET. EVEN OUR AUTO MECHANIC WAS WELL AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND SUGGESTED THAT WE COMPLAIN TO THE DEALER AND SEE IF THEY WOULD BE NICE ENOUGH TO HONOR SOME TYPE OF COMPENSATION!*JB
