Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT APPROX 30 MPH I STARTED TO ACCELERATE AND THE TRANSMISSION SEEMED TO DOWN SHIFT VERY HARD AND CAUSED THE ENGINE TO REV EXTREMELY HIGH AND WHEN IT WENT TO SHIFT UP IT SHIFTED SO HARD IT SEEMED THE TRANSMISSION WAS GOING TO FALL OUT. THIS WAS ALSO FOLLOWED BY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON. SINCE THIS INCIDENT THIS HAPPENS ON A REGULAR BASIS AND BUT NOT EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT. NOR IS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALWAYS ON. I ALSO HAVE TROUBLE SOMETIMES PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK AND TRYING TO REMOVE MY KEY FROM IGNITION. I HAVE TO MOVE THE SHIFTER BACK AND FORTH TO GET THE CAR INTO PARK TO REMOVE MY KEY. ON MOST OCCASIONS WHEN I AM AT A COMPLETE STOP AND GO TO ACCELERATE THE ENGINE WILL REV REALLY HIGH AND I HAVE TO TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS TO ALLOW THE CAR TO SHIFT. *JB
