Transmission dip-stick is too long and causes a false reading of fluid level! Hence, when fluid is 1 qt.(+/-) low dip-stick shows full, even though vehicle will not engage in gear. Many owners have towed to transmission shop for repair when all is needed is additional fluid. This causes unnessary costs (expensive, etc.) which most shops will charge for as high priced repair &/or installation of re-built transmission worst of all, the stalled vehicle can result in injury &/or death !!! *ak
