Consumer Description

ODO ERROR. WRENCH AND AIRBAG LIGHTS ON. TRANSMISSION WOULD BARELY MOVE CAR, EVEN WHEN REVVING ENGINE. STOPPED ON HIGHWAY IN TRAFFIC. TURNED ENGINE ON/OFF SEVERAL TIMES THEN ODO WORKED, BUT TRANSMISSION BANGED REALLY HARD, THEN ENGAGED NORMALLY, AND RAN NORMALLY. HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES IN TWO WEEKS. WITH JUST 200,000 MILES, THE PTU LEAKED AND WAS REPLACED BY DEALER. AFTER ONE WEEK, THE ODO ERROR FIRS T OCCURRED. I BELIEVE THAT THE PTU REPLACEMENT MIGHT HAVE CAUSED THIS PROBLEM!
