Consumer Description

MY CAR HAS MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS COME ON ALL AT THE SAME TIME. MY DASH SAYS ODO SYSTEM FAIL, THEN IS SAYS THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR FAILS, THE WRENCH FOR TRANSMISSION COMES ON, THEN THE TIRE PRESSURE SYMBOL COMES ON AND FLASHES, THE AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON, AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. THEN MY ODOMETER GOES TO ZERO. IF I SLOW DOWN TO A STOP SIGN OR SOMETHING, I PUSH THE GAS AND THE RPM'S ON MY CAR GO WAY UP BUT MY CAR HARDLY MOVES. ONCE I GET GOING TO A HIGHER SPEED, THE RPM'S GO DOWN...IT IS ALMOST LIKE IT IS STUCK IN A HIGH GEAR. THEN WHEN I PUT MY CAR INTO DRIVE AFTER IT WAS IN PARK, MY CAR JOLTS AND MAKES A HUGE CLANKING NOISE. IF I SHUT MY CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON, IT MAKES A LOUD CLANKING NOISE BUT ALL MY WARNING LIGHTS TURN OFF EXCEPT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THEN WHEN I PUSH THE GAS AGAIN, IT IS STILL BARELY MOVING AND IN HIGH RPM'S BUT IT WILL RANDOMLY KICK INTO WHATEVER GEAR IT NEEDS TO BE IN AND MAKE ANOTHER LOUD CLANKING SOUND AND RUN FINE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I AM NOT SURE WHY IT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED YET. THIS HAPPENED TO ME FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE MIDDLE OF A FOUR WAY STOP AND I BLOCKED THE INTERSECTION AND ALMOST GOT HIT BY ANOTHER CAR. THIS IS EVENTUALLY GOING TO CAUSE GREAT HARM OR EVEN DEATH TO SOMEONE.
