Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The transmission started siezing up. it will not shift to the next gear while the engine kept revving up. it would eventually jerk badly and shift to next gear. dealer says that the car needs a new transmission. the car only has 34000 miles and it appears that there is a rash of transmission problems with this year and model. how do i know that this will not happen again in another 1.5 years? i was thinking of buying a acura mdx. i have second thoughts now.*ak
