| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: 1. first time my transmission gave out i was in the middle of a busy intersection and when i pressed the gas peddle the rpm went way up but the car did not move. i tried not to panic as oncoming traffic came right at me. before i knew it, the intersection was gridlocked and horns were honking everywhere. i was almost hit and would have been injured. finally, with the help of others the car was pushed to the side of the road and towed away. the final bill costing 2,300.00$. recently, in a parking lot, after shifting into reverse and pushing the gas peddle, the car shot forward (still in drive). luckily there were no people in front of me but i almost hit a car. i looked at the console and saw the gear was in drive even though my shifter was in reverse. the shifting mount is unhitched and the transmission needs to be replaced again!!!! this is a complete hazard and i have narrowly escaped collision and injury for a second time. 2) failure is to breakdown in busy intersections and almost hitting a car in a parking lot. *ak 3) transmission replaced using old parts and now the second time i'm not sure what is going to be done. |
