What owners wrote

I purchased a 2005 4 door toyota corolla ce from a dealer here in puerto rico. I purchased the vehicle brand new. I am still making payments on this vehicle has I am going into my 4th year this year of making payments. The dealer suggested transmission oil change service every 15,000 miles. My vehicle has already over 72,000 highway miles. So far I have done 3 transmission oil changes mainly because they are not cheap.
