Consumer Description

WHEN MAKING TURNS, DRIVING UPHILL OR ACCELERATING, THE CAR MAKES A GRINDING NOISE. I ALSO NOTICED MY CAR JOLTING FORWARD AT TIMES OR MAKING A SOUND LIKE I'M STUCK IN GEAR WHILE DRIVING. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE CLUTCHES SLIPPING. AFTER THE FIX, MY ( I BELIEVE MY TRANSMISSION) CAR IS STILL JUMPING. THIS HAS SERIOUS REPERCUSSIONS, ESPECIALLY IN TRAFFIC WHEN IT IS STOP AND GO. WHEN IN TRAFFIC, MY CAR HAS JOLTED FORWARD CAUSING ME TO STOP AT FAR DISTANCES FROM THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME IN CASE IT HAPPENS. *TR
