The service light kept coming on so we hooked it up to a computer and it indicated a tranny problem. I didn't think anything was wrong with the tranny and neither did other people who checked it out. About a month after the light being on constantly, i blew a head gasket and ended up having to get a whole new engine. I hear this is a very common thing on this year and make.

it would not be so dam bad if it had only happened once, but as my luck would have it I have had to repalce the heads three different times because we could not figure out why the heads kept cracking
