A newspaper reporter is seeking interviews with Southern California residents who are members of either the Boomer or Gen Y generations to talk about their first cars. In other words, if you were born between 1946 and 1964 or between 1976 and 2000, we want to hear from you. Please respond to jfallon edmunds.com no later than Wednesday, October 17, 2007, and provide your daytime contact info and a few words about your first car. Thanks, Jeannine Fallon Corporate Communications Edmunds.com

I’m posting this on behalf of a journalist at a national publication writing a story about negotiating new-car prices and the car-buying experience. He writes, "I’d like to talk to car buyers about their views on negotiating a car’s price and hear your recent experiences about buying a new car. I am particularly interested in the experiences of woman and all shoppers under the age of 35. Would you prefer to haggle or just get one price and pay it? Are you attracted to brands like Saturn and Scion because they boast one-price selling? You must be willing to chat by phone and be quoted in print. If you have some experiences or thoughts to share, please send an email to carguy147hotmail.com and I’ll set up an interview." Alternately, you can write me at jfallon edmunds.com and I'll be sure to connect you. Please respond on or before Wednesday, October 17, 2007. Thanks, Jeannine Fallon Corporate Communications Edmunds.com |

I've had my Toyota Camry for 1 year now, up until Thursday November 1st I wasn't aware I had a problem with the transmission. I was driving home from work on the Conejo Grade "Ventura County" California when It felt as though I had a flat tire. My car felt like a huge wind hit it and I started to feel as if I was losing control of my car, there was NO wind! Yet my car was waving with me trying to get control to pull over, I was scared to death. I pulled over and checked my tires and that was not the problem. I had it towed to the dealership where I purchased it. What was explained to me was the transmission needed to be replaced, no reason as to why, just the transmission went and a new one was needed. After reading Consumer Reports, I'm livid! No one has recalled these transmissions and I could have been killed going down a grade at 65 MPH and losing my ability to steer the car. Is the new transmission a different model than the one originally put in the 07's, or am I going to be scared to death that this could happen again possibly with my four year old in the car? Does anyone know? |
