Consumer Description

THIS IS RELATED TO NHTSA ACTION NUMBER : PE09035 WHILE DRIVING, TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP LIGHT AND THE CAR WOULDN'T GO. IT ACTED AS IF IT WERE IN NEUTRAL. ALSO NOTICED ON THE DASH COMPUTER WHERE IT SHOWS WHAT GEAR YOU'RE IN I.E. P,D,R - ALL OF THESE LIGHTS JUST FLASHED. ONLY WAY TO GE THE CAR MOVING AGAIN WAS TO TURN OFF THE IGNITION (IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD) AND RESTART THE CAR. I WAS THEN ABLE TO PROCEED WITH DRIVING. THIS INCIDENT WAS EXTREMELY SCARY AND I WAS ALMOST REAR-ENDED. THIS HAPPENED TWICE THE SAME DAY SO I IMMEDIATELY TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE. IT HAD ONLY BEEN DRIVEN A TOTAL OF 200 MILES UP UNTIL I TOOK THE CAR IN. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT CALLED BACK THE NEXT DAY AND SAID IT WAS A FAULTY TRANSMISSION TEMPERATURE SENSOR WHILE IS NOW BEING REPLACED. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE CAR BACK YET. *TR
