Consumer Description
MY VEHICLE IS CONSTANTLY TELLING ME MY "TRANSMISSION OVERHEATING, PLEASE PULL OVER SAFELY" WHEN IM ON THE FREEWAY (NO TRAFFIC). I PULL OVER AND IT SAY "WAIT 5 MINUTES," WHICH I DO AND THEN IT WILL SAY "TRANSMISSION READY". SOMETIMES EVEN BEFORE I PULL OVER TO ALLOW TRANSMISSION TO COOL DOWN IT WILL FLASH "TRANSMISSION READY" BEFORE I CAN PULL OVER TO LET IT COOL DOWN.
