Consumer Description

1. IGNITION- MS. FAULKNER WAS TRANSPORTING ME TO PICK UP MY VEHICLE AND HER VEHICLE ENGINE SHUT OFF JUST BEFORE SHE CAME TO A STOP. SHE STATED THAT THIS HAD OCCURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE DID NOT STALL THE DAY I DROVE IT BUT WHEN I STOPPED AT A SIGNAL LIGHT THE ENGINE SURGED MOMENTARY FOR APPROXIMATELY 3-4 SECONDS AND THEN IT RETURNED TO IT?S NORMAL IDLE. HAD I NOT HAD THE BRAKE PEDAL ENGAGED THE VEHICLE WOULD HAVE SURGED FORWARD 2. TRANSMISSION ? WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT SPEED LIMIT AND SPEED CONTROL SET, UPON RESUMING SPEED AFTER COASTING DOWN A HILL, THERE WAS A VERY DISTINCT CLUNK THAT CAME FROM THE TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE. THIS SAME CLUNK OCCURRED AGAIN AT SLOW SPEEDS WHEN I SLOWING DOWN FOR A SIGNAL. *TR
