“Transmission would keep slipping. The clutch piston had started slipping. This caused the vehicle to jerk before going into another gear. Been to dealer & was informed by mechanic the pistons were made of aluminum & were cracking. The pistons needed to be replaced with steel pistons to operate properly.”
