Consumer Description

WHEN CAR IS STOPPED OR DRIVING THE TRANSMISSION FEELS LIKE IT IS GOING TO SLOP. FEELS LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL. WENT T DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THIS IS NORMAL. THIS IS NOT NORMAL. JERKS AND FEELS LIKE CHOCKING WHEN DRIVING OR STOPPED. WHEN ACCELERATING JERKS AND FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS AND ISN'T SHIFTING. WENT TO DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY WILL NOT LOOK INTO THIS. LOOKED ONLINE AND NOTICED SEVERAL FORUMS AND OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME TROUBLES WITH THE CAR. NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED AS IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. EXPRESSED. CONCERN WITH DEALERSHIP THAT IT WAS HAVING TROUBLES THAT IT WAS EITHER THE TRANSMISSION BUT LOOKED AT ME. LIKE I DID T KNOW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT BECAUSE I'M A CHICK.
