Consumer Description
CAR WHILE DRIVING IMMEDIATELY SLOWS LIKE IT WAS SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL. WHEN YOU PRESS THE GAS CAR RACES BUT DOES NOT MOVE. THE PRNDS FLASHES AND THE CAR HAD TO BE SHUT DOWN AND RESTARTED. I HEARD THERE WAS A RECALL BUT IT NEVER SHOWED FOR MY CAR NOR WILL THEY HELP, BECAUSE MY VIN WAS NOT LISTED. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. ESPECIALLY AT 55 MPH IN HEAVY TRAFFIC.
