I've owned this car since it had 32,000 mi and never had an issue accept for one or two small issues. The transmission bangs into 1st gear when coming to a stop. I took it to a transmission place and they fixed it electronically. It occurred many other times and I had it fixed a few more times without being charged. I have asked and asked if something can be replaced but no one seems to know what the definitive answer it. It keeps occurring and now the engine and transmission mounts need replacing. There was one time in a severe snow storm where the car banged into 1st gear and I slid through a red light until the car was stopped by the ABS. It was dangerous. The car is fantastic and still running today but that issue still exists.
Purchased used in September 2010 When driving over 20 miles an hour, when coming to a stop or slowing down the car jerks when the speedometer hits 20 and I hear a knock. I had my mechanic drive it, he stated that the car has what they call a hard down shift when the transmission is switching gears. Will be taking it to the dealer for repairs, unfortunately I did not get the extended warranty.
