problem #1

Dec 242006

RAV4 4WD 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 67,000 miles
Automatic transmission shift cable broken while selecting to park, this vehicle could roll forward or backward upon releasing the brake. If in case the cable broken without knowing while cruising I have no option to downshift in case of emergency on a downhill road or brake system failure. I've replaced the part at a cost of $196 + labor.
