Consumer complained about engine check light constantly coming on. He took vehicle to dealer several times, and the light kept coming on. Consumer was told by one dealer that he needed to have engine cleaned out and use a different gas. Consumer stated this he did. After a couple of days the light came on again. Also, consumer was told by one of the mechanics that the problem was the fuel line because it was possible that he used some contaminated gas. But, nothing will stop the check engine light from coming on.
While driving at various speeds the transmission would down shift from high gear to lower gear and then lock up. The vehicle would jerk forward and remain in the lowest gear when this happened. The wheel would lock up just prior to being release. The vehicle has been to the dealer who changed the speed sensors 3 months before the transmission was replaced. The speed sensor was replaced 2 times. The pulse generator was replaced a total of 4 times. The thermostat has also been replaced. Also there was a tire label replacement. Stopper and ELR seat belt was installed. Blade fuse and wire repairs. Hood latch cleaned. Dealership most recently found the transmission had internal problems and replaced the transmission and flushed the cooler lines.
