I didn't think that there were any problems with these transmissions. That's why they have them in so many cars, for so many years. The 200-4R was borderline in some cars, but starting with the 700-R4 in the 90's, they seemed to be pretty bullet-proof from then on. I'd think that this was some kind of fluke then. I have absolutely no qualms about the trans in my GXP.

“Has any GXP owner’s experienced similar problems related to the transmission.”
 
I did not experience this sort of issue.
I did have issues (documented above) that resulted in a new transaxle installed.
My ** guess ** is that there was some sort of linkage issue with the particular vehicle – that would (or should) have been addressed by technician(s) when it was prepared. Shortly after delivery to the Dealer. And certainly before anyone was allowed to test drive it.

Otherwise, enjoying the 10,000+ miles . .
