Consumer Description

DRIVING AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 30-45MPH THE RPM'S REV UP BUT THE CAR SLOWS DOWN! ON HILLS, IT WON'T ACCELERATE AT ALL! EVEN IN LOW GEAR IT WON'T MOVE. RPM'S JERK AT HIGH SPEEDS AS WELL. HAD DIAGNOSTIC DONE 5-7-10 THEY SAID THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS FAILING BETWEEN 2ND & 3RD GEAR, IT'S NOT READING ANY CODES AND THE FLUID IS DISCOLORED. ESTIMATING COST TO FIX IS $3,000. TRUCK HAS LESS THAN 100,000 MILES ON IT!! PROBLEM OCCURS EVERYDAY -- TRANSMISSION HASN'T COMPLETELY FAILED YET, BUT I FEAR IS GOING TO HAPPEN SOON! I HAVE NO IDEA HOW I'M GOING TO PAY FOR THIS... I'VE ONLY HAD THIS CAR 2 YEARS. I THINK IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN WHEN YOU'RE ON THE HWY AND YOUR CAR WON'T ACCELERATE AND PEOPLE BEHIND YOU ARE SWERVING TO MISS YOU AND BLOWING AT YOU. *TR
