My transmission is terrible. I can't get into reverse. It is clunky. That's why they changed it for 2004. It always pops out of gear. If i take it to the dealer, they'll just tell me it's my driving like the other 1000 people out there i guess with the same problem. It needs to recalled and replaced with the 04 transmission. This is ridiculous.*ak

Manual Transmission
Transmission is difficult to shift into 2nd and 3rd gear. The situation is worse on cold mornings, even after letting the car warm up, as suggested by dealer. At times, after vechicle is moving the gear selector can not be placed in next gear, causing vechicle to roll down street under no power until the gear lever will engage.*ak

1. Intermittent manual transmission problems since car purchased new. Gears grind, refuse to go into proper gear, pop out of gear (when driving!) problems are not continual, but do seem to be increasing. Dealer tells us there is no problem, as it cannot be replicated.. Car refused to start on one occasion, towed to dealer, where it "started up right away." problem has not recurred since.*ak
