Consumer Description

THE TRANSMISSION OF MY CAR MAKES MY CAR LURCH FORWARD WHEN GOING BETWEEN GEARS. THE RPMS REV UP AND THEN THE GEAR GRABS, SENDING MY CAR FORWARD IN A GIANT LURCH. AFTER ALMOST HITTING CARS IN FRONT OF ME SEVERAL TIMES, I NOW MAKE SURE TO KEEP EXTRA DISTANCE BETWEEN MYSELF AND THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. AFTER HAVING THE "TRANSMISSION NEEDS MAINTENANCE" AND ENGINE CHECK LIGHTS COME ON, THE DEALER HAS DIAGNOSED A PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRONIC SYSTEM THAT CONTROLS THE TRANSMISSION. I AM HAVING THIS REPLACED FOR $500.00. *TR
