The transmission is almost the same as the one found in the Cadillac CTS, SRX, and one other model. Those have been pretty reliable transmissions. The only small issue is the valve bodies on these transmissions do wear down and usually need to be replaced or refurbished at some point if you plan on keeping it for a long time.
