Well, yesterday I go to back out of the driveway and I cannot shift into reverse (6mt). This is the second time it has happened.
I have been claiming that the shifter is loose and the tranny grinds, as well as, complaining about the reliablitiy (18 days out of service since 12/12/05). Well the short story is the shifter is shot and has to be replaced.
The longer story is the District Manger was coming to the dealership to drive my car today anyway so he got to drive it without reverse. He then called me up and told me that it shifted normally, and all the problems I've been having are just start up problems and will work themselves out. Because the dealership does not keep a shifter in stock they have to order it (over the weekend) and my car will be out of service close to 25 days. The lemon law in this state is 30 days out of service over 2yrs or 18,000 miles. I've only got a little over 7K miles.
Is anyone else having reliability problems or had their shifter fail? I've also had the parking brake fail, the roof leak twice, the check engine light come on twice for no reason, the recir pump on the a/c fail, intermittant grinding noises in the instrument cluster, the traction AND stability control turn off and on for no reason.
