1 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 04/20/2020

We received the car April 18, 2020. We were told that nothing was wrong with the car besides the gas gauge on the dash. On April 20,2020, we were on the highway and the car stopped. We turned the car off for a bit and the problem still persisted. The engine will rev but the car wouldn't go forward nor reverse. We let the car rest for about 20 minutes and it started to work. We then took the car to the mechanic the next day and he told us that the transmission wasn't no good and that's there was an exhaust leak.

Service engine soon, vdc off, and slip lights all come on from start up of vehicle. Engine bogs a lot, specially when slightly more agresive acceleration. I changed hid wire by pulling out the headlight unit and the next time I drove it this happened.

4 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 07/20/2012

Was coming to a stop at red light, just before car stopped moving it felt like the trans down shifted hard. I had my foot on brake, already stopped and car lunged forward. It felt like it was going to take off and hit the car in front of me, I put it in neutral and the car revved up to about 6500 rpm for 3 to 4 seconds then dropped down to normal. I an positive I did not have my foot on the gas and the floor mat was not pushing the pedal, I talked to my mechanic and he thinks the throttle had to be open as this is a drive by wire car.
