Transmission Gear Slipping Problems of Mini Cooper

When driving vehicle transmission slips causing a jerk reaction in the vehicle and then it will renegade causing another jerk reaction in the vehicle and makes going and or stopping unpredictable. Turning left is dangerous as the car may not move forward at a speed that it should or may jerk in the middle causing the vehicle to stop in front of oncoming traffic. I have had a machanic change the transmission and it still does the same thing. I have contacted the manufacturers who informed me that there were no recalls and nothing they would do.

Before I bought the car it was rear-ended from losing speed because the transmission was slipping. This is in the design of this year of Mini Cooper as I am finding that it is on the internet as just a bad design. I can't get anyone to work on it for a reasonable price. I'm hoping there's some help out there for unsuspecting innocent people like me who thought they were getting a good car and now it is just unsafe as I have had to tow it 3 times now and I've only had it since may of this year 2018.

The cvt transmission on my 2003 Mini Cooper has failed rendering the car not drivable. The transmission has always been quirky, but I was assured by the dealer that it was working properly. The transmission slips drastically and makes a very audible whirring sound. The only option for repair is a complete new part install at the dealer cost of $8,800. I have read hundreds and hundreds of identical stories about the cvts on Mini Coopers as well as the power steering pump. It seems from research that this part commonly fails and replacing with a defective part at a cost near nine thousand dollars is absurd and disgusting. It is cost prohibitive to keep my car operating and I feel as though I have, as well as thousands of other Mini owners have been sold a defective product worthy of recall.

2003 Mini Cooper, transmission problems. Dealers states it would cost seven thousand dollars to replace and fix. With the car only worth double than that it is an shameful act on Mini for doing this to customers. Sounds of rattling and transmission slipping, dealer states it is a regular problem with the Cooper but there is no recall of any sort.
