Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: While my vehicle was still under warranty, i took my car to the dealer with a slipping/shuddering problem. they changed the transmission fluid and the problem seemed to go away. the problem re-curred and i took it back again. again they changed the fluid. by the third time i took the vehicle back a third time, for the same problem, the vehicle was out of warranty. now i am finding out, only after researching the issue myself, that the belt is the problem and that the issue is consistent with 2003 to 2005 models. the problem is becoming worse and now my car is bucking when i try to start out from a stop. i am afraid to drive because of the fear or the car stalling at inopportune times and i am distracted by the issue. *tr
