Who needs reverse?
Who needs reverse?
We just had one of our 2012 V6's (not mine!) lose reverse gear with only 6400 miles on the clock. Not sure what the problem is but when I find out I'll post an update.

Hey Paul.... did they fix the car yet? Or did reverse get left out to the budget cuts... (grin) j/k!

I think he just uses his rookie to push the car backwards. I have no update yet. I'll go to the garage on Monday and try to get an update then.

Sounds like they are waiting for the replacement transmission to arrive!

Wow... down time now exceeding 1/2 month. Y'all are very patient Paul. I'd be jumping up and down on the phone with a fleet rep. if the dealer didn't make nice fast!

Re: Who needs reverse?
The car is back in service, still dont know 100% what the issue was but the little I got out of its driver is that they replaced the transmission with a new one. More to come...

Re: Who needs reverse?
Nothing more to report. I checked again and they said the trans went on it, it was replaced with a new one. I guess that is going to be the story. Keep an eye on your reverse, its the first sign your having an issue.
