Description of the problem | Purchased vehicle oct 2013 with less than 400 miles, within a few days i called dealer to say i heard a grinding shuttering noise coming from transmission to be informed that was "normal". Car began to get louder and began hesitation so i took it in and was told computer needed recalibrated. Ran ok for awhile then began to do the hesitating and shuttering again. I was informed there was a recall on the clutch seal.. Took it in for replacement. Ran fine for awhile began hesitation and shuttering yet again and had to have computer recalibrated again. Now with 28000 mile it has began to shift hard, shudder and hesitate yet again. Service is scheduled for saturday 11/14/15. |
