Consumer Description

WHILE LETTING OFF THE GAS TO SLOW DOWN TO EITHER A STOP OR AROUND A CURVE; THE CAR IDLES ALL THE WAY DOWN AND DIES, THE DASHBOARD FLASHES A MESSAGE SAYING 'VEHICLE MUST BE IN PARK TO SWITCH GEARS'. WHEN I PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK IT THEN TELLS ME TO PUSH THE BRAKE AND THE START BUTTON; WHEN I DO THE CAR 'WHINES' AND ACTS LIKE IT'S HAVING A HARD TIME STARTING BACK UP; WHEN IT DOES FINALLY TURN OVER IT IDLES HIGH UNTIL I PUT THE CAR IN GEAR MAKING IT JUMP.
