Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Started off as a speedometer problem. speedometer would peg from 0 to whatever speed i was traveling when taking my foot off the accelerator, then it would reverse it and only peg back and forth when my foot was on that accelerator. overdrive light blinks on and off and overdrive fails. transmission shifts into gears quickly,chirping tires. also, when speedometer drops to zero, if you push the accelerator the car seems to think it needs to shift into first or second gear no matter how fast you are going. almost caused me to have 3 accidents in one day just driving home from work. *jb
