Transmission failed with no warning while pulling into traffic, near miss, car had to be pushed from road and towed. This is the second time this transmission has failed both at 60 to 70 K miles!!! this is a product design defect and a safety defect.

Dealership advised that transmission had codes of 628 torque convertor solenoid locked up and code 657 fluid over temp, and that transmisson oil dark in color. Need to replace transmission cost of $2650. No problems with car other than O/D off light flashing. Car shifted normal.

Flashing od light at 68800mi, transmision began slamming into gear. Codes indicated bad torque converter, dealer service would not rebuild due to burnt transmision fluid. Replacement cost $2100. Waranty only 10000/90days. Aamco rebuilt transmision for $1750. 50000/3yr waranty. Another torque converter failure with only 2000 miles, hmmm. Third failure due to a faulty locking ring. 1000 miles with no failures so far.
