Consumer Description

While driving at speed between 18-35mph the transmission began to shutter. I attempted to make a left turn and the vehicle would not accelerate as I pushed on gas pedal. I believe the transmission failed almost causing us to be T-boned by another vehicle approaching intersection from opposite direction. This is definitely a important safety concern.
