Consumer Description

AFTER HAVING MY CAR FOR 5.5 YEARS, IT STARTED TO SHIFT GEARS ON ITS OWN (IT'S AN AUTOMATIC) AND BRAKE/STALL WHEN I'M GOING LOW SPEEDS. ESPECIALLY WHEN I'M AT A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, IT WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO ACCELERATE (BEEN STUCK IN MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS ABOUT 5 TIMES) EVEN WITH MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR. THE ENGINE DOES NOT SHUT OFF...SO I WILL TURN MY CAR OFF AND BACK ON TO GET GOING AGAIN. ONE TIME I WAS ON THE FREE WAY WITH A FULL TANK OF GAS GOING 65 MPH AND MY DASH BOARD WENT COMPLETELY RED AND SPEEDOMETER WENT TO ZERO...THE CAR DID NOT STOP UNTIL I MANUALLY TURNED IF OFF ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. ALSO, IT ONCE DID THE OPPOSITE WHEN I WAS TRYING TO BRAKE BEFORE A RED LIGHT, THE CAR JOLTED/ACCELERATED FORWARD WHILE MY FOOT WAS ON THE GAS. I'VE REPLACED THE AIR FILTERS, BATTERY, ALTERNATOR, AND ENGINE'S WIRE HARNESS (ALL AT SEPARATE TIMES) AND THE ISSUE REMAINS.
