Consumer Description

My 2016 outlander started having a burning plastic smell. I made a trip back home and thankfully made it safely because I started having issues with accelerating. I would push the gas gently and barely go but my car would Rev up to 4-5 rpms. I could put my foot to the floor and it wouldn't speed up at all. After checking the transmission fluid and seeing it was on the lower side we added a little more in hopes it would help but it did not. I was low on gas after my trip so I drove to the closet store so it wouldn't be sitting with no gas and At this point the transmission service required warning came up. It started revving up even worse with the slightest touch of the gas and I could barley get it to back out of a spot or take off from a stop sign. We were trying to get it to a neutral location that we knew it would be safe and while drinking it there it started jumping and the check engine light came on. I had it towed to a repair shop who verified it is a transmission issue but said they recommend a dealer fix only. My car is a 2016, had 1 previous owner and only has 58347 miles on it.
