Consumer Description

While coming out of a curve I stepped on the throttle but the car didn’t respond. It acted like the transmission had failed. I then swerved to the shoulder so we wouldn’t be rear ended but a semi which was following us. I put the vehicle in park and turned it off. When I restarted the vehicle it wouldn’t come out of 1st gear. I have since had the vehicle inspected and was told the tans axle pump was bad which is a known recall for the previous 2 years. But can’t find out if the 2017 is part of the recall. The vehicle on has 88,000 miles on it so the transmission shouldn’t have any issue.
