1. I purchased this car used, and the problem was hidden from me. 2. Problem occurs everyday, the transmission slips about 1500 rpms when cold. A. Seatbelts are hard to click into mechanism b. Interior lights do not come on when drivers door is opened, but does when passenger door is open.. 3. Nothing has been done yet, I have taken this car to many shops trying to diagnose the problem, but I cannot figure it out.
