Consumer Description
transmission suddenly downshifted causing vehicle to almost stop locking up the rear end momentarily scaring all passengers and almost causing an accident. this occurred several times. the vehicle does other weird things as well. dealer says it is lead frame issue wants to charge 1800 dollars to fix. I looked up info on how the 11 thru 13 models have recall for the exact issue and same transmission. why then wouldn't a later vehicle same transmission exact same issue be cover as a recall as well? This keeps reoccurring putting lives at risk it also looses power making so the vehicle will not move out of traffic the check engine light sometimes comes on stating trans issues the wrench light on the dash illuminates dealer as admitted it needs a new lead frame 2011 thru 2013 had recall for exact same issue has been happening for several weeks no warning just all of the sudden each time which is getting worst
