The transmission will cycle first through third and when it tries to go into 4th it slips and will not operate higher gears it caused me to lose my forward drive momentum as I was switching lanes and the car I was getting in front of almost ran into me.

My 2005 Mini Cooper Convertible needs the transmission replaced. My car has only 92,000 miles and it is unfair that already it has to be replace at a ridiculous cost. There was a class action law suit with BMW/Mini for the transmission that went wrong. There are many people besides myself who where not notified of this and were left out. Mini cooper should recall the transmissions . There are many forums of Mini cooper owners who are outraged and have similiar situations. Please consider and make this company recall the transmissions. Thank you.
