After having the torque converter replaced as the recall says I noticed that the transmission was doing good but right outside the warrenty mileage I noticed that it started acting kinda like before after several months guess what as I was climbing up a hill on my driveway the transmission stopped pulling starting to roll backwards and making a grinding noise as for it to recall the torque converter then why has it once again almost like me with loss of all gears yet no new recall had been added why did it do this again?.
I was mid turn when the gas pedal stopped working with a loud grinding sound. It would not shift back into gear and the loud grinding sound still persists.
