I had to replace tbe tie rod and steering gear at 70,000 miles in nov 2017. I've just been told that the transmission needs to be replaced and i am only at 76,000 miles. T am in an active bankruptcy so i can't replace the car because the car dealership will approve me for a loan that has 18 percent interest. This is cost me a lot of stress. A lawsuit needs to be filed.
