Detailed review: |
I have almost 500 miles on mine, everything is fine except for the automatic transmission. I'm accustomed to driving a stick but find it difficult to welcome this automatic. When coming almost to a stop and then accelerating, the transmission seems to jerk in an effort to decide which gear to select. (It's at the dealer now for this problem) When the engine is cold (59 degrees) the transmission seems to take quite a while to engage. I checked the fluid level and it seems within the proper range. Very discouraging since I've only had it 5 days. |
