Consumer Description

THE TRANSMISSION HAD BEEN HARD SHIFTING FROM 3RD TO 4TH FOR ABOUT 200 MILES. AT 25 MPH WHILE TURNING THROUGH A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION THE ENGINE REVVED SHIFTED THROUGH WHAT FELT LIKE EVERY GEAR, THE CAR LOST ACCELERATION POWER; GOING FROM 25 MPH TO 10MPH. PARKED THE VEHICLE. RESTARTED TO FIND THAT ONLY FIRST AND SECOND GEARS WORKED AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. DURING THE 200 PREVIOUS MILES OF CONCERN; I HAD HEARD A FAINT WHINE DURING ACCELERATION. THE FIRST TIME ANY TROUBLE OCCURRED THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED BEHIND A SCHOOL BUS LOADING AND WHILE I APPLIED THE BRAKE (STILL COMPLETELY STOPPED) THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD. I IMMEDIATELY SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL, NOT WANTING TO REAR END THE SCHOOL BUS. *TR
