Consumer Description

SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE I NOTICED THAT IT JERKED AS I DROVE. SEVERAL MONTHS AGO THE JERKING GOT A LITTLE WORSE BUT I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT IT WAS MY BRAKES. AS I WAS DRIVING THE OTHER DAY I FELT SEVERAL JERKS AND THEN THE CALL CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP WITH ALL OF THE POWER STILL BEING. I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTED IT. THE CAR STARTED UP PERFECTLY FINE AS I SHIFTED IT INTO DRIVE THE CAR STARTED SHAKING AGAIN AND SHUT DOWN. I DID THE SAME ROUTINE FOR SEVERAL TRIES AND EVERY TIME I PUT IT INTO EITHER DRIVE OR REVERSE THE CAR WOULD SHUT DOWN. IF I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL THE CAR WAS PERFECTLY BUT IF I PUT IT IN DRIVE OR RESERVE
