I drive alot. i have to drive from VA to New England 1-2 times a month. obviously it's an auto. I've read so many complaints and problems on this board and i was so happy i didn't have any problems until this. After they fix this problem i am gonna sell it. After the shocking breakdown of transmission i am afraid someething else will start to break down from now on. it's sitting in my garage like a piece of junk. a $55K vehicle broken only after 43k miles. it's pathetic.
