Went in today to speak with the mechanic and service manager. Other than the tranny having to come out, it was a snap ring that came out causing a large metal seal to not seat, so no big deal. No damage other than not having the car to drive...we went over it together part by part, all looked good. No rebuild required, just a new ring and seal. Should have the car back middle of next week. As a former mechanic, I'm happy with the solution. If there are any issues, it will be back to them in a heart beat.

Well...this is post #2 for me Just picked up a brand spankin new 2011 Tuxedo black Fusion SEL with sport appearance last Thursday. Sadly the tranny decided to get really grumpy on day 2 of ownership and the cars been in the shop since Tuesday and is now awaiting a new tranny. Dealership is looking after me, so hopefully they can get this turned around quickly. Looks like a seal got shredded and one of the valves isn't operating properly keeping line pressure high. Hits hard going into drive and really hard when it kicks down. Up shifts are fine. As they say $h#t happens, so I'm taking it in stride. Car is really nice to drive thou, and real step up from the high mileage HHR I traded in for it, so I can hardly wait to get it back ASAP, as the focus they lent me is not so nice LOL Thought I would share, as I came on here wondering if this might be a common thing.......which it would seem not to be at all.

Good a place to get a first post as any I guess...... Hi :D
