Consumer Description
MY VEHICLE HAS AT MULTIPLE TIMES LOST ACCELERATION POWER AT HIGH WAY SPEEDS AND HAD A TRANSMISSION WARNING FLASH ON, CAUSING MYSELF TO HAVE TO STOP ON THE INTERSTATE AND ATTEMPT TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER AMID HIGHWAY SPEED VEHICLES. I HAVE ALSO LOST ACCELERATION POWER GOING UPHILL, AND MY VEHICLE SHUDDERS AT ACCELERATION WHICH MAKES IT HARD TO MERGE ON AND OFF THE HIGHWAY OR TO TURN AT INTERSECTIONS, AS I CAN'T GET GUARANTEE MY CAR WON'T HESITATE AND CAUSE A COLLISION, MY CAR ALSO SOMETIMES ACCELERATED FORWARD IN STOPPED TRAFFIC, SO I ALWAYS AM SUPER WARY IN STOP GO TRAFFIC. ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS TYPICALLY OCCUR WHEN I AM ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE OR DECELERATE. MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION REPAIRS WITH SAME ISSUE. STILL HAPPENING TO DATE.
