Vehicle transmission began to slip in and out of gear constantly, and was brought to dealership for repairs. Vehicle misdiagnosed and shiftimg linkage replaced, vehicle problem continued. Also, engine overheated while at dealership and engine block destroyed, engine replaced at 8000 miles. Transmission problem persisted and was overhauled with one seal being replaced. Problem continued to 03/17/99. Was brought to shop after accident when vehicle was in reverse and transmission would not engage. Wgile engine revving transmission slammed into gear, vehicle jumped backwards and struck parked vehicle. Also owned by myself. Both vehicles danaged. Dealership diagnosed vehicle with another seal leaking and put in new transmission. Factory rep. Would not allow lemon law filing, and would not make repairs to vehicle damaged from accident. I have been advised by other owners of these vehicles they have ex;perienced the same or similar problems with the transmission.
