Have a 2006 Chevrolet Equinox that has been slipping gears (not properly shifting) when accelerating and decelerating. This has been happening for a week. Just yesterday, while sitting at a light, with my foot on the brake for several seconds, the vehicle must have decided to go back down in gear, and it made the vehicle jump. Then yesterday afternoon, while trying to accelerate onto a busy highway, it would not get out of gear and stayed at 15 mph. I had to let off the gas for a few seconds then resumed accelerating. The issue has been happening for about a week, but yesterday was the scariest, when I couldn't merge into the traffic at the speed that I needed to. My husband has called the lot where it was purchased and made an appointment to take it in for this Thursday. I began reviewing posts on other websites and was amazed at how many complaints there were on this very issue. This is very scary, especially with that many complaints.
