Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE DOES NOT DOWNSHIFT. IT IS AN AUTOMATIC BUT I HAVE TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL BETWEEN GEARS AS WELL AS WHEN I NEED TO SLOW DOWN. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL INSTANCES OF A CAR IN FRONT OF ME BRAKING UNEXPECTEDLY AND I MUST PUT THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL AND IT CONTINUES REVVING AT A HIGH SPEED SO I THROW IT IN NEUTRAL. I COULD RUN INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME UNLESS I SLAM VERY HARD ON THE BRAKE OR PUT INTO NEUTRAL. THE CAR DOES NOT SHIFT INTO A HIGHER GEAR AUTOMATICALLY EITHER. ALSO, I MUST PUMP THE BRAKE FOR A MINUTE OR TWO BEFORE THE CAR WILL START.
