Consumer Description

MY 2007 CHEVY UPLANDER HAS BECOME UNSAFE. MULTIPLE MECHANICS HAVE GIVEN DIFFERENT GUESSES AS TO WHAT THE PROBLEM MAY BE. WHEN DRIVING, IF I STOP AT A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT, OR EVEN DURING STOP-GO TRAFFIC, THE VAN WILL SUDDENLY JERK WHEN I GO TO ACCELERATE. SOMETIMES THE JERK IS INCREDIBLY FORCEFUL AS IF I HAVE BEEN HIT FROM BEHIND. TWO MECHANICS HAVE RECOMMENDED A COMPLETE TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT BUT SAY THAT THEY HAVE HAD SIMILAR COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME MAKE/MODEL VEHICLE. BECAUSE THE VAN DOES THIS, IT IS HARD TO ACCELERATE IMMEDIATELY FROM A STOPPING POINT. THIS CAUSES UNSAFE DRIVING/TRAFFIC CONDITIONS AS I CAN NOT BE CERTAIN MY VAN WILL IMMEDIATELY ACCELERATE WHEN NEEDED. *TR
