| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Dodge marketed a version of the mitshubishi 3000gt vr-4 in the early-mid 90's. both of these cars are equipped with transmissions that can lock up when being driven!!! i personally know of at least 4 occurrences of this, even though the production of the cars was limited to a few thousand turbo models (note: this applies only to the turbo models). my failures have included a 2nd gear syncro failure, and a leakage problem, both warranted a full transaxle replacement. other people (see www.3si.org) are reporting complete transaxle lock ups, input shaft lock ups, synchronizer failures, and general leakage problems. most leaks, if undetected, particularly in the transfer case lead to lock up at, often at high speed!!! this transmission makes the chevy vega of the early 70's look like a high quality car!! *ak |
