Consumer Description

MY CAR'S TRANSMISSION BECAME DISENGAGED FROM THE THIRD OR FOURTH GEAR AND DROPPED DOWN TO SECOND GEAR WHILE I WAS ON THE FREEWAY. THE RPM GAUGE WENT UP TO 5000 RPMS BEFORE I LET OFF THE GAS REALIZING THE CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT. WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC BEHIND ME AND MY CAR PREFERRING TO BE IN 2ND GEAR, I WAS AT RISK OF BEING REAR-ENDED. RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM REVEALED THAT IT WAS A TRANSMISSION SPEED SENSOR THAT HAD FAILED AND FURTHER INVESTIGATION INTO ONLINE FORUMS FOR PROBLEMS WITH THE MAKE AND MODEL REVEALED THAT OTHERS HAD SIMILAR ISSUES IN THE PAST WITH THEIR VEHICLES. *TR
