POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
THERE WAS NO INDICATION THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION UNTIL ONE DAY I WENT TO PULL OUT INTO AN INTERSECTION AND THE CAR FELT LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL. DURING THAT SAME EPISODE, WHEN AT A STOP LIGHT, THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE UNTIL IT WAS PUT IN 2 INSTEAD OF DRIVE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CAR ONLY HAS 48,000 AND THE COST OF THE REPLACEMENT OF A NEW TRANSMISSION WAS $3,256 + TAX. *JB
