At first when the problem started I thought that I had put some bad gas in the car. But it was sputtering just when I was cruising around 50mph. Dumped some heat in....nothing. Took it to the dealership and they couldn't "repeat" the problem... I still dont even think they drove the damn thing. 2nd time to the shop problem getting worse. They keep it over night for a charging system failure code. Next day call me saying that I need a induction cleaning because I have carbon build up in my car and its misfiring causing the sputtering..... OK $153 for this. 3rd times a charm!!!! TAKE IT BACK! because now I had a friend which works at the dealership take a look at it and drive it after work. He automatically says is a tranny issue!!! Now its in the shop again with a new transmission on the way because the torque converter came apart and reaped havoc on the tranny.

This all happened within a week...

NOT TO MENTION THEY WON'T REFUND MY $153!!!! WTF
