Purchased the car with 75,000 miles on it. Thought it might last a little while. I have had to replace the battery, alternator, front wheel bearings, transmission leak, and now the transmission doesn't work! Grinds when I put it into reverse, and all the other gears nothing happens. I also just put a new filter and fluid in three months ago.
