  • Automatic transmission

When I took my vehicle in for service to find out why it seemed to only go into reverse when it felt like it, they couldn't find anything wrong. There were no metal shavings and the fluid was fine. Told me that I would eventually have to get my transmission rebuilt. Seems to only go into reverse about 2 times after it's been parked for about 5 hours and will jump into reverse when I step on the gas. Just waiting for the other gears to go before getting transmission rebuilt.
