| Description of the problem | My vehicle started to stall as if it was going to cut off, i pulled to the side of the road and waited a few minutes then it started right up as if no issue. Later that day when my husband was driving the vehicle started to shift really hard and stall. I took it to the dealership and the dealer diagnosed the transmission problem as fluid cooler located in the radiator assembly that allowed coolant to mix with and contaminate the automatic transmission fluid. I was really afraid of being rear ended as the vehicle stalled as it shifted to the next gear, prior to this there had been absolutely no warning that there was an issue of this magnitude. |
