Friday-02/18/05- my "Check Engine Light"came on....
I had been experiencing the reported
"vibrations" that many of us have had.
I called my service dept.,told them of the "check engine light"
coming on,and about the vibrations in the transmission problem.
They said I could drive the car as long as the "check engine light"
was not flashing,and to bring it in Monday morning.
Sunday morning,I got in the car to go to church,started it up,and lo and behold
,the "check engine light" did not come on.????
The transmission vibrations were still there,no change in that area.
I did little driving the rest of the day.
Monday was at dealer at 715am,we reviewed the problems,
and they took car to be checked.
An hour and 15 minutes later,I was told that indeed there was a problem
with the transmission,according to computer findings.
They will contact Main Service section ?? for
resolution of problems.
I told them that the car is brand new,has 1780 miles on it,
and I really don't want a rebuilt transmission.Service Manager agreed,
said most PROBABLY they would replace with NEW transmission,
less time and money.To which I totally agreed,now at home awaiting
a call on what the next step is,and probably getting rental car
to use till mine is back in service.
We will see..
