Here is a way to NOT start your day

Got a mile and a half from the house and the transmission in a 2007 Suburban stopped working!!!!
D and d3 didnt work d2 and d1 worked so I was able to get it to the house but ARRRRHHHHHHH

I am very thankful it is still under warranty....makes me think of trading it before that warranty goes though!

Sorry for your bad start today. Some models of cars tend to have transmission problems two years down the road. Not sure subaru has one of those. If you can afford to trade in might be a good deal if not get the car to the dealer as soon as possible to have the transmission replaced as soon as possible, for sure.

Ok, Warranty covered gobs, but they just gave us the list of maintenance items....$710 with tax and a 10% coupon.....

It should get us ready to drive to WDW in July, last year it was $600 so.....

Why do things cost so much?
