Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE WILL BEGIN TO ACT LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL AT HIGH SPEEDS OR GOING UP HILL. WE NOTICE IT MORE WHEN WE ACCELERATE REALLY FAST LIKE AN ON RAMP TO THE HIGHWAY, BUT IT ALSO HAPPENS WHEN IT NEEDS THE EXTRA POWER GOING UP HILL. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS WATER GETTING INTO THE PCM CAUSING ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH READ OUTS ON TEMPERATURES AND OTHER THINGS. WE HAVE ALREADY HAD TO GET THE TORQUE CONVERTER REPLACED A FEW YEARS AGO AND I WAS TOLD THAT IT MAY HAVE BEEN TO ISSUES WITH THE PCM. *TR
