Consumer Description

THE TRANSMISSION ON OUR 2007 MODEL YEAR IS A 6 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. THERE HAS BEEN GRADUAL INCREASE IN UPSHIFT KICK AND DOWNSHIFT KICK AFFECTING THE ACCELERATOR FOOT PEDAL FEELING. AT TIMES IT FEELS LIKE THE VEHICLE IS READY TO MOVE FROM A DEAD STOP, THIS IS SPECIALLY CONCERNING ON STOP AND GO TRAFFIC WHERE THE TRANSMISSION IS CONSTANTLY UPSHIFTING AND DOWNSHIFTING IN LOW GEARS. THE DOWNSHIFT KICK IS MORE PREVALENT IN THE LOWER GEARS 3RD TO 2ND AND 2ND TO 1ST. THE UPSHIFT KICK IS MORE PREVALENT IN 2ND TO 3RD. A SENSE OF CONCERN HAS CREEPED UP ON MY WIFE EVERY TIME SHE DRIVES THE VEHICLE WITH NO SENSE OF SECURITY AS SHE TRIES TO MAKE LEFT TURNS OR IN SLOW STOP AND GO TRAFFIC THAT THE TRANSMISSION WILL NOT REACT AND BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. *TR
