Went slow and tried to brake and accelorate to understand trigger. Turned around after 1. 5 mile to head back home. A few yards in the car made loud dropping sound and grinding and scraping and would not accelarate. So loud i thought the bottom came out. People pushed it into parking lot for me. Aaa towed it to dealer. 24 hours later told it was a transmission problem. 24 hours after that told they are replacing with new transmission. Asked if this would trigger any future problems and they claim no. |
