Is this car really that bad? Everyone is talking about some transmission issues.

Two years and 60,000 kilometers, no issues with the transmission. The car is also problem-free.

Many fellow car enthusiasts have driven their cars for over 100,000 kilometers and have had them for more than three years without hearing of any transmission issues.

The power in the trash: My 6AT had a transmission failure yesterday, only D5 and reverse gear are working.

This is indeed trash.

Buy the 6-speed automatic version with the Aisin transmission; it has a very low failure rate.
