Transmission was slipping and fuel was leaking. Consumer took vehicle to the dealer, and dealer told him that transmission failed, and it needed to be repaired. Conumer stated that dealer told him it would cost approximately $3000. Consumer was concerned because he did not have that many miles on vehicle. Also, check engine light came on and stayed on.
