| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The incident of the automatic transmission lock-up began when i was on the road to my job after a 15 minute drive when i felt the inability of my car to maintain the vehicle running smoothly as i was driving through rural road on an upward climb into the mountainside. the steeper the climb until i reached my school after 5 more minutes i was listening to the "humming" sound and feeling the rapid de-acceleration of the motor until the car stopped running abruptly but the motor did not shut-down and i was left climbing the steep entrance to my school where i work with my 5 year- old granddaughter with me in the car. i had to call for the mechanic to pick up the car which was hoisted to the garage for repair. i made communication with the car dealer but the car has no warranty ( 2001 45,000 mileage) and it's my responsibility. parts have to be replaced and cannot be repaired. *jb |
