When the car was delivered (it was special ordered with the equipment she wanted) it turned out that it was manufactured in the last week that they used the under-sized transmissions. While they did offer an extended warranty on the transmission, she refused the car, and managed to get her deposit back as well. (She then bought another Olds off the lot of another dealer!).
