| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: 1. there were no events that led to the failure. 2. when slightly accelerating between the speeds of 35-45 mph, the transmission shifts out of gear, the tachometer would shoot way up, and the vehicle would start slowing down. the check engine light did not come on, except on one occasion recently. this problem did not happen on a daily basis. some days it would happen once, while other days it would happen several times. this almost resulted in being rear ended on several occasions by cars and big rig (18-wheelers) trucks that were following closely. my wife was becoming increasingly afraid to drive the vehicle because the issue was happening at a higher rate (on a daily basis) prior to the transmission being replaced. this is a potentially dangerous safety issue. the number of occurrences is too many to remember. 3. after taking to the dealer on numerous occasions, the dealer finally replaced (free of charge) the transmission when the check engine light finally recorded a transmission code error. *jb |
