They advised my transmission gasket was leaking and so I spent $200 on that repair. Now I feel like I can't trust my mechanic OR the dealership. Since the vehicle will be out of warranty in less than 5,000 miles I'm wondering if the dealership was just trying to drag things out until the warranty expires. I don't want to make much ado about nothing but I know when something just doesn't seem right.
