Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY 2003 DODGE INTREPID ON THE FREEWAY AT 60 MPH THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY DECELERATED. THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WAS STUCK IN FIRST GEAR AND WOULDN'T SHIFT TO THE UPPER GEARS NO MATTER HOW FAST I DROVE. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND AFTER STARTING IT APPROXIMATELY TEN MINUTES LATER IT RAN FINE. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC AND HE RECOMMENDED A TRANSMISSION FLUSH. AFTER THIS WAS DONE I DROVE TOWARD MY HOUSE AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. THIS IS VERY DISCOURAGING BECAUSE THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 34,000 MILES AND WAS SERVICED EVERY 3,000 MILES SINCE I PURCHASED IT. *TR
