Transmission needed to be replaced at just over 56,000. Did not have extended warranty coverage protection so was entirely absorbed by me. Incident failure happened while on highway and safely made it back home with prayers and cautious driving techniques like a bad theme park ride. Cost was over $2,000.00. Replaced in feb. 2010. *cn
