Consumer Description

ROLLED BACKWARDS WHILE PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY TWICE AND VEHICLE WAS FOUND OUT IN THE ROAD BY MY NEIGHBORS. I WAS DRIVING IT A WEEK AGO AND MY RPM'S WERE TACKING REALLY HIGH BUT COULD NOT ACCELERATE SPEED AND I WAS IN 6TH GEAR AND IT WAS TELLING ME TO SHIFT TO 6TH THEN 5TH BACK AND FORTH. HAD IT CHECKED OUT AT DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID MY CLUTCH HAD ABNORMAL WEAR AND TEAR BUT WASN'T COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THEY DID NOT CHECK THE PARKING BREAK TO SEE IF IT WAS WHAT CAUSED THE MALFUNCTION OF THE CLUTCH. THE CLUTCH NEVER GAVE ME ANY PROBLEMS IT WAS JUST THE CAR LAGGED WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE SPEED.
