Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Dealer will not fix only replace components at the cost of $10,000. this problem exists for many 3000gt owners. it is many owners' opnion that the transmission is not designed to handle the horsepower, and it is a corporate decision to replace rather than fix the original unit at an unreasonable cost. many have replaced transmission units more than once which gives a good indication of the inadequacy. *ak
