Consumer Description

I JUST HIT 40,000 MILES, VEHICLE HAS BECOME VERY UNSAFE, WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE SHUTS OFF. ACCELERATION TAKE TOO LONG AND ONCE IT KICKS IN IT SLAMS INTO GEAR. IF I NEED TO REVERSE IT WON'T FIND THE GEAR AND WHEN IT DOES , I SLAMS INTO GEAR, THE WRENCH CONTINUES TO APPEAR ON DASH WHEN SAID EVENT IS HAPPENING. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THAT TRANSMISSION OR ENGINE. VERY UNSAFE. WHEN VEHICLE STALLS IT BECOMES A HAZARD TO EVERYONE AROUND ME. IF SOMEONE COULD PLEASE CONTACT ME THIS WOULD BE GREAT. UPON SEARCHING WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE I NOTICED NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. PLEASE HELP! I DON'T HAVE ANY PHOTOS OF THE VEHICLE SHUTTING DOWN AND WHAT A HAZARD IT CAN BE . TELL ME WHAT TO DO PLEASE.
