Consumer Description

I was having to go to stl to see my sons in the NICU in Creve Couer, and when doing so anytime I got over 70 mph for maybe 5 minutes, it would pop up with "Transmission fault, service now." I have to pull over, turn the car off, sit for 30 minutes, then turn my car back on and stay under 65 the rest of the way home. As a mom of a [XXX] little girl and a mom of twin boys I don't have the money to have it repaired right now, but I wanted to let someone know what is going on with my vehicle. Thank you INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
