Description of the problem | Vehicle has an automatic transition but does not transition from one gear to the next properly. When accelerating from a stop, the vehicle jerks before the transmission switches gears. The "clutch" has been replaced by the dealership one already as "defective". This was approximately a year and a half ago. Now the problem is happening again. Vehicle is at dealership having the exact same repair done. Major devalue to vehicle and concerned this will just happen again since the car is less than 3 years old and is already having the third clutch installed (including original). |
