Component | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION |
Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | The transmission problem does not seem to affect the handling of the car. The noise occurs after the car is completely warmed up, whether the car is moving or stopped and is heard when the car is in or out of drive. It is a grinding noise. The air bags did not deploy in a collision. The dealership advises that i 'just go buy a battery.' i think it is unreasonable for a car to have these problems after two years, although the mileage is high, these are not hard miles in my opinion. *ak |
