THE VEHICLE UNPREDICTABLY SHIFTS INTO SECOND GEAR WHILE TRAVELING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. FIRST OCCURANCE WAS AT 62,000 MILES. THE REPAIRS SO FAR ONLY SOLVE THE PROBLEM FOR A BRIEF PERIOD OF TIME, 10,000 TO 15,000 PER REPAIR. DURING THE WINTER MONTHS I DRIVE IN THE SNOW WEEKLY. THIS CONDITION MAKES THE CAR EXTREMLY UNSAFE ON WET OR ICY ROADS. ITS NOW DRIVEN ONLY ON DRY ROADS. CAN THIS TRANSMISSION BE REPAIRED?

Reading this record
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
