They're often easy to notice. Dodge Omni transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding or jumping during acceleration, the car shaking at any speed, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood. If you ignore Dodge Omni transmission issues you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your Omni at all.
