The defective transmission would not shift into other gears, it sounded like it was stuck in lower gear. Also, a loud sound would be produced from the transmission area of it being stuck in a lower gear when traveling at speeds around 55-65, dealer replaced transmission 3 times but vehicle still experiencing the same problem.
