problem #1

2006Jan 15

Freestyle SEL 3.0L V6

  • CVT transmission
  • 5,000 miles

For 4 years I have complained about hard shifting in gear and loud whining noises from the cvt transmission. Today 06-20-2009 I went to the dealer again about the problem because of a check engine light. The dealer told me that the problem was my throttle control assembly and it would stop the winning and hard shift. This repair is about $500.00 and not covered under my extended warranty. My factory warranty expired in jan 2009. Whats with that?
