Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Transmission shifting rough. it seems the transmission is slipping and then slams into gear. it happens every day, some days more than others and some days harder than others. sometimes i feel like i am going to get whiplash whenever it slams into gear. i have been complaining about this problem since late last year but the dealer cannot seem to fix it. they keep replacing the coils but that does not solve the problem. they mentioned that they seem to be having this problem with a lot of 2003 mpv's. it has been to the shop five times since january and it is still not fixed.*ak
