On my Hyundai Accent I have replaced the transmission three times and now it is about to be a forth time and I have only had it for a year and a half. The transmission will go up to 55-65 miles an hour and then wine really badly and then shake bad to. Third time to happen. I believe with the lemon laws they owe me a new car.

My transmission has failed 7 times and replaced 4. it is still presently slipping. The factory rep. Was of no help however, the service department at college park have been extremely polite and understanding. Sam carlin, jim thomas, and jeff peleruzzi.

In snow, icy or wet road conditions this unpredictable loss of RPM's and power train response makes car handling and control very difficult. We are aware of other complaints logged on auto forums in the usa and that is why we are reporting this to draw attention to a potentially much bigger problem. We have had this vehicle in for warranty repair 8 times over 10 months. They say they have never heard of this problem, yet there are other internet reports of the same problem. They say they cannot fix it, which means, difficult to control cars are on the road. We hope this helps the us consumers identify this problem in an import vehicle in your country.
