Consumer Description

WHEN TURNING MY CAR ON AND PUTTING IT INTO REVERSE, THE CAR SUDDENLY JERKED AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE "R" SHOULD APPEAR FOR REVERSE ON THE DASH, BUT ALL THE LETTERS ("P", "R", "D", ETC) WERE SCRAMBLED TOGETHER. THE CAR DROVE IN REVERSE AND WHEN I PUT IT INTO DRIVE, IT JERKED AGAIN AND THEN WOULD HARDLY ACCELERATE. AFTER DRIVING IT FOR A COUPLE MINUTES, TURNING IT OFF, AND TURNING IT BACK ON, IT WOULD FINALLY ACCELERATE NORMALLY, BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD STILL BE ON AND THE GEARS WOULD STILL JERK. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD GO OFF AFTER A FEW DAYS AND EVERYTHING WOULD BE FINE, BUT STILL THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENS AGAIN IN A SHORT TERM. *TR
