Consumer Description

GEARS STARTED SHIFTING ON THEIR OWN, AND AT TIMES DID NOT SHIFT AT ALL...THANK GOD I WAS ALREADY ARRIVING HOME WHEN IT SUDDENLY JUMPED INTO PARK, BRINGING THE CAR TO A SCREECHING HALT, AT THIS POINT I WAS ALREADY SLOWING DOWN TO GET INTO THE DRIVEWAY. THIS HAPPENED AFTER I HAD A 1HRS DRIVE ON A HIGHWAY, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A HUGE ACCIDENT IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED WHILE ON THE ROAD. SINCE THIS HAPPENED, I DID MY RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND OUT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE BAD PART IS THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR. I SINCE THEN HAD THE CAR INSPECTED BY A MECHANIC AND READ THE CODES P0700 AND P0705 THAT IS FOR THAT PART. *TR
