problem #2

Aug 122021

Sonic RS 1.4L V4 Turbo

  • Automatic transmission
  • 45,000 miles

The transmission failed and required a total replacement. This left the car unusable. Thankfully it was covered under the extended warranty, otherwise the car would have been totaled.

problem #1

Sonic LT 1.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 70,000 miles

When shifting from 1-2-3 in city traffic, the transmission seems to slip and not grab a gear. the Tach raves to 2-2500 RPM while the car tries to get in gear.

It is slipping while trying to move.

then it grabs and lurches forward while attempting to move.
