CarComplaints.com Notes: This is a classic example of why you should avoid the first model year of a new car. Sure, it's new and shiny but there's going to be some growing pains.
In March 2011 I took my car into the shop to have the banging and shuttering of the transmission. I was told that all it need was a transmission module. my extended warrant paid to have it fixed. 7-days later my the light came back on in the car,I took it to the shop and told that my transmission was bad and needs to be replaced. To make a long story short, I had a new transmission put into my car in October 2011, i took it back to the shop several times for banging and the car shuddering whether I am driving or changing gears. I was told that it would take some time for the new transmission to adjust, but until this day my car is shuddering and banging. I was wandering if something else could be going on inside the car.
AS of 11/12/07, have found a problem with the instrument panel dials fluctuating up and down while driving. In addition, some of the warning lights blink off and on at the same time. It seems like the car is going to stall, but it hasn't. Notified dealer but they have not heard of a problem like this. I'm wondering if there is a problem with the wiring, etc.
