| Description of the problem | You'll be driving down the street or highway and it all of sudden it loses power and the light that means transaxle problem has been detected and shifting may be restricted. Have system services immediately if light remains on. I looked it up with my vin number and i know there is a recall due to this problem. I looked it up on a site and it said it hadn't been fixed and i called one dealership and they said they don't see where it had been fixed either. Then all of sudden when i discover another dealership that is closer to me a couple days later and decided to call them to see if they could get me in instead of the first dealership cause it was closer to my house they all of sudden say it was already had been fixed back in 2012. Which is bull cause i looked it up on a site and it said it hadn't and the first dealership also said it hadn't but now two or thee says later it's strangely in the system when i call the second dealership that i called cause it was closer. That is very strange and ironic that all of sudden it's now in system that it's been repaired. |
