CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2012 Chevrolet Sonic is fairly new & is already showing an early trend of transmission problems.
Owners report hesitation when shifting & grinding/hard shifting into gears. Some dealers are calling the condition "normal". Another owner reported his dealership replaced the transmission under warranty, but the new transmission had the same exact grinding problem. Design defect?

According to my ASE certified independent mechanic, the module that tells the car to start has decided to NOT do so. The car is PAID OFF not even 4 months. I now have a 3,000 pound PAPER WEIGHT! Am I pissed????
