Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 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
