Consumer Description
AS I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ABOUT 45-50MPH , IT STARTED TO SPUTTER, THEN THE RPMS SHOT UP AND I COULD'T ACCELERATE, LOST SPEED. MY TRANSMISSION FAILURE LIGHT CAME ON. I PULLED OVER AND PUT IT IN PARK. I WAS VERY CLOSE TO HOME SO I TRIED TO DRIVE TO MAKE IT HOME AND NOT BE STRANDED A MILE FROM HOME. IT DID IT AGAIN, THEN MY TRANSMISSION FAILURE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. IT ALSO WOULDN'T GO INTO REVERSE, IT WOULD JUST REV UP. IT WOULD ONLY GO INTO REVERESE AFTER I PUT IT IN PARK A COUPLE TIMES. IF I TURNED THE CAR OFF, THEN ON, I COULD GO A FEW FEET BEFORE IT WOULD JUST REV UP AND COULDN'T ACCELERATE. ITS MAKING A LOUD WINING NOISE. I HAD IT TOWED TO LEONARDTOWN FORD.
