problem #1

Jan 052010

Matrix XRS 1.8L L4

  • Automatic transmission
  • 66,000 miles

I was planning on going to visit family for Christmas and i tried to put the car into gear and it wouldn't go. All gears acted as neutral no matter how much i accelerated no movement. had the car towed and i was told itd from the transmission. i was surprise caused i though Toyota had good engineering but luckily the transmission was covered by Toyota warranty and it only cost me $700 which was very good compared to $2500. the reason i got for transmission failure was that AWD weights too much and a 4 cylinder car couldn't handle it.
