Love the car. But ...
It started to act up ...
Rough shifting between gears on a couple of occasions ...
When going up an incline, the car didn't seem to know it should downshift for more power so instead the car limped up the hill ...
Check engine light came on ...
That lead us to do some searchs on Google which brought up many web sites describing the problem.

Even the New York Times is blogging about the problem.
The car is now in the shop and we are hoping that the transmission isn't torn up.
Rambling about soccer: LA Galaxy, IF Elfsborg, Falkenbergs FF, Liverpool FC, Queens Park Rangers, and LAFC. Also random rambling about Star Trek, LA sports (Dodgers, UCLA, Kings, Lakers, Rams), politics (centrist), faith (Christian), and life. Send comments to rrblog[at]yahoo[dot]com.
