Cirrus 6-cyl

  • 104,900 miles
I currently own a 1999 Chrysler Cirrus V6. Auto is equipped with a 41te automatic transmission with 104,000 miles on it. According to al web sites I have come to find that the 41te automatic transmission has proven to be an unreliable unit resulting in premature failure and bearing failure. Chrysler has refused to acknowledge the defect. As of this writing the pinion bearings have failed in my vehicle and Chrysler has refused to repair as this is an ongoing problem with this transmission for which the manufacturer denies an responsibility. There are thousands of people like me out there with no recourse. Estimated repair cost $2,000. 1999 Chrysler Cirrus V6 any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated as there are many other people like me out there.

Transmission slips gears, and it is making a very loud sound. Consumer had vehicle checked, and was told that transmission was suppose to be making that kind of noise. But consumer can be riding along and can hear a loud sound. He knows that is not suppose to happen.
