THE VEHICLE HAD A FACTORY RE- MANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION INSTALLED, WHICH IS NOW STICKING IN SECOND GEAR AND FREQUENTLY FAILS TO SHIFT INTO ANOTHER GEAR. THE MANUFACTURER IS AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT HASN'T PROVIDED A REMEDY TO CORRECT IT. THE TRANSMISSION HAS TO BE REPLACED WITH ANOTHER RE-MANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION. *JB
