| Description of the problem | I purchased my vehicle pre-owned in 2014. The vehicle has less than 120,000 miles and is only 6 years old. I put a brand new battery in the vehicle a couple weeks ago, i started to notice when i put the vehicle in reverse it would jolt, then it started doing the same thing when i put in drive. I had to pull over with my baby in the car and got the verhicle towed because i was scared, and now all of a sudden my transmission is bad! The vehicle drove fine and now since the battery change the transmission. Its not fair that they only cover certain vehicles which include cvt transmissions (all should be covered) this is their fault in making these vehicles this way and i wish i had known i would have never purchased this vehicle |
