Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The transmission slips out of gear by itself. it happens at all speeds sporadically. when it slips the car slows down,which has caused a couple of dangerous situations. more dangerous still is that when it slips the r.p.m.'s jump higher and sometimes the transmission then grabs and the car lurches suddenly forward.this has almost caused us to crash twice;once on the freeway and once on a sharp turn.*ak
