Check engine light on 4 times in the last 6 months
Hey guys, I'm having some problems with the car. The dealer keeps saying that there's nothing wrong with it, but this is the 4th time since I moved to chicago in september.
The first time it was because my ITM valve was jammed, but in reality it wasn't.
A week later, it came back on so they replaced my ITM valve altogether.
Couple of months later it came back on again, this time the cursor of "D" kept blinking telling me my trans had problems. I took it in they said that there's nothing wrong with the trans but some sensor went nuts because I don't drive the car enough in this cold weather.
They decided to replace the wiring harness for that, and 3 days later the light is back on along with the blinking transmission light.
Does this happen to anyone at all? Or is this just me ...
It's a one year old car with 10.5k miles.
thanks!

There's a definite issue, not necessarily mechanical but there's definitely some type of failure occurring. Pull the DTC for the trans & CEL for us and post up.
