Consumer Description

MY CAR HAS CUT OFF ON ME 4 TIMES IN THE PAST 2 MONTHS. IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN EVERY 2-3 WEEKS, WHEN I COME TO A FULL STOP. ALSO, WHEN MY FOOT IS ON THE BRAKE, THE CAR WILL VIBRATE VIOLENTLY AND THEN LUNGE FORWARD BY A FOOT OR SO. I HAVE ALMOST HIT CARS IN FRONT OF ME BECAUSE OF THIS. THIS HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES AS WELL. I'VE GOTTEN MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER CHECKED- NO PROBLEM, I'VE GOTTEN RADIATOR AND TRANSMISSION CHECKED- ALL FINE. I'VE HAD AN A/C FLUSH, TRANSMISSION FLUSH, AND AIR INDUCTION/.FUEL SYSTEM CLEANED OUT. EVERYONE SAYS THAT THE CAR IS FINE, AND I'VE HAD HALF A DOZEN MECHANICS CHECK EVERYTHING OUT. NO ONE CAN FIND A PROBLEM. AND A NEW THING HAPPENED, JUST THE OTHER DAY, WHEN I HAD STARTED MY CAR UP FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE DAY, THE CAR DIDN'T WANT TO SHIFT ABOVE 30 MILES. THE RPMS WERE REALLY HIGH, BUT I WAS AT 30 MPH. THE MECHANICS CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT AT ALL. I SAW A POSTING ON ANOTHER WEBSITE WHERE SOMEONE HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS, BUT NO ONE COULD FIND THE PROBLEM. JUNE 23RD IS THE FIRST DAY THAT THESE THINGS STARTED HAPPENING. *TR
