Description of the problem | I am leasing this car and got it in march 2013. I have had it in the shop 3 times already and the dealers, 2 different ones, keep telling me it is just normal. I have been driving a long time and even drove a 5 speed, but never have i had these issues. Grinding, shuddering, jerking in lower speeds and i sometimes think the transmission is going to fall out of the car. It has been over a year since i have had it in the shop, as i work and it seems to be worthless for me to take it in. I am not sure if i can file a lemon law complaint, but not sure what else i can do. |
