Consumer Description

MY VEHICLE WENT FROM NOT BEING ABLE TO CONTROL ACCELERATION OR ACCELERATE AND MAKING A STRANGE SOUND WHILE IN MOTION WHILE THE RPM WAS STEADY GOING UP, TO NOT ACCELERATING AT ALL WHILE IN MOTION, TO NOT SHIFTING GEARS, TO NOT DOING ANYTHING IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN I FIRST NOTICED ALL OF THE PROBLEMS. I HAD TO PULL ON SIDE OF THE ROAD MULTIPLE TIMES. IT WAS SCARY AND DANGEROUS BEING ON SIDE OF THE ROAD AS A WOMAN AT NIGHT WITH VERY LITTLE LIGHTING IN THE AREA. WHEN THE VEHICLE DIDN'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING AT ALL IT WAS PARKED.
