| Description of the problem | I had my vehicle maintained at the same dealership i bought it from since i first purchased the car and was never notified of the cvt transmission issues. Over the last few years i told them that the vehicle whined when i accelerated on the highway but they never recommended replacing the transmission under the 10 yr or 120,000 mile warranty. The transmission just failed at 136,000 miles and the manufacturer said that they would not honor the warranty. |
