Default Re: PT broken when paid for
Sorry about your trouble. Sounds like your the victim of the dreaded 41TE transaxle problem. The auto transmission on the PT Cruiser (also the minivan) is a weak link. Although thousands of owners have no problems, there's quite a lot that do break down, some luckaly before the warranty runs out. I don't have the information at hand, but there's a part or two inside the tranny that is prone to brake.

If you do a Google search of "41TE problems" you'll see what I mean about the tranny.
