Consumer Description

I JUST PURCHASED MY VEHICLE ALMOST 2 YEARS AGO. THE VEHICLE HAS HAD STALLING AND ACCELERATION ISSUES SINCE THEN. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THEY DIDN'T FIND A PROBLEM ONLY IN THE JOINTS OF MY WHEEL BEARINGS. TWO WEEKS LATER. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND IT FELT LIKE SOMEONE HIT MY CAR. WHEN I LOOKED BACK THERE WAS NOBODY BEHIND ME. I PULLED OVER TO CHECK MY VEHICLE OUT. WHEN I GOT BACK IN MY CAR. IT WAS HARD TO SHIFT MY GEARS. I TRIED TO DRIVE OFF BUT MY CAR WOULDN'T MOVE NO FASTER THAN 5 MILES PER HOUR WITH ME PUSHING THE ACCELERATION PEDAL TO THE GROUND. I ALMOST GOT HIT BY A SEMI TRUCK. I FOUND OUT FROM A MECHANIC THAT IT WAS MY TRANSMISSION. NO WARRANTY IS AVAILABLE. MY CAR IS JUST SITTING IN MY GARAGE AND NOW I'M CATCHING THE BUS WHILE PAYING A CAR NOTE. PLEASE HELP. I DON'T HAVE 2500 TO FIX THIS. IT'S TOO MANY RECALLS ON THIS SITE ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP US.
