Description of the problem	While driving at about 45mph i noticed a rumbling noise that resembled the sound when you drive over the speed stips on the highway. I thought it was a change in pavement. I started noticing the noise much more frequently and decided to see what the internet had to say. Wow!!! Was i surprised when i saw 500+ complaints on the same matter. Apparently the transmission cooler line is cracked and runs in to the transmission causing catastrophic failure in the transmission. I have decided to flush the radiator and transmission while replacing the cooler. We will see if this fixes the problem but by reading everyone else's responses it looks like i need to brace myself for the deep economic impact of buy a new transmission. My vehicle is 8 years old but at 120k miles. Let's hope this lawsuit forces them to put out a recall. We all know why they are not putting out a recall... It is because it is an expensive one!
