Description of the problem	My vehicle has had transmission related issues since i purchased it. I have taken it to the dealer numerous times to have it addressed and was always told it was nothing. In dec. 2017 my car broke down while on vacation in fl, it had 131,500 miles at the time. After having it towed it was diagnosed as a valve body failure. 10 months and 7k miles later it is now stalling and shutting down when i brake and i have been told that i need a new torque converter. I never received the letter about the cvt transmission issues and extended warranty, nor was this covered when i had the valve body replaced. The car stalling when braking is a huge safety issue and should be a recall. I luckily have not had to brake to the point of the car shutting down when driving on a road with higher speed limits, it has only happened in town when approaching stop lights or stop signs.
