NHTSA Complaint #11323785 — 2010 VOLKSWAGEN ROUTAN

AROUND 108000 MILES, MY 2010 ROUTAN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION STARTED JERKING INTO GEARS 2, 3, 4. SOMETIMES IT SHIFTS SMOOTHLY BUT MORE OFTEN IT'S HARD ENOUGH TO JERK ALL PASSENGERS WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE TRIED ECO MODE WITH SAME RESULTS. DRIVING NORMAL IT SEEMS TO BE WORSE THAN WHEN SPEEDING UP QUICKLY. 3RD GEAR IS THE WORST AND IS HARD ENOUGH TO THROW YOU FORWARD CAUSING YOU TO SWERVE SOMETIMES. IT'S THE SAME RESULTS IN TOWN, ON HIGHWAY, AND IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. NOW HAS 129000 MILES AND GETTING WORSE. THERE ARE OTHER TIMES IT FEELS LIKE IT DIDN'T WANT TO SHIFT UP AND WOULD OVER REV BEFORE SHIFTING UP. *TR
