Cvt

Saturn / GM made a CVT for the Vue. It has never been sucessfully launched and has now as of last month been discontinued and the CVT program dropped in GM. Honda has one that seems to work. Now when Honda buys GM we will have the best of both worlds. Seems to me that Subaru has one to, and that is GM ??

My sister has a Saturn Ion and that has the CVT transmission in it. It has only 13,000 miles on it and has been into the dealer so many times for repairs on the CVT that they are buying it back before she files lemon law. Not enough testing before production it would seem.
