Consumer Description

MY 2013 TOYOTA RAV4 IS SHOWING TRANSMISSION ISSUES. AFTER STARTING, PUT IN GEAR AND IT WON'T MOVE, JUST REVS LIKE IN NEUTRAL. WHEN I SHUT OFF AND RESTART IT RUNS. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME 4 DIFFERENT TIMES IN THE PAST 2 MONTHS, AND ONE TIME I WAS IN A LINE OF CARS AND WHEN IT WAS MY TURN TO GO, IT WAS JUST REVVING. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO MY LOCAL DEALER 3 TIMES FOR THIS, ONE TIME THEY HAD IT FOR 3 DAYS AND ANOTHER TIME OVERNIGHT SO THEY COULD DO A COLD START AGAIN. THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS. THERE IS SOMETHING DEFINITELY WRONG WITH IT. THERE ARE ALSO TIMES WHEN GOING DOWN THE ROAD IT LIKE SHIFTS TO A LOWER GEAR, LIKE SOMETHING HOLDING IT BACK.
