1 Transmission Gear Slipping problem

Failure Date: 03/17/2010

The car had no power and the transmission started to slip and now it slips every time you use the car. This is dangerous because if you were in on coming traffic and you had to move you cant move quick.

2 Transmission Gear Slipping problem

Failure Date: 11/01/2004

Travelling on interstate, going 30 to 40 mph because of rush hour traffic. Transmission starts to slip. I was lucky enough to pull car onto the shoulder and out of traffic. After towed to dealership, I'm told a plug on the radiator that connects to the transmission "popped" off. This caused all the transmission fluid to drain on the interstate and immobilized my car. The radiator has to be completely replaced because of this plug.
