Overall a very reliable car and never heard of that problem on any others like it.

I had almost the same experience as you. About 6 months after buying a used car, the tranny craps out. A new tranny had to be Fedexed from overseas. Never mind the shipping and labour, parts alone would have cost me $5K.
