The vehicle gets stuck in a gear low or high and will not get out of that gear until the car is turned off and then back on. This is a very dangerous situation for a family that is either merging on to the highway or trying to accelerate. This is a problem for these vehicles and makes it very dangerous to drive. You do not know if it is stuck in a gear until you try to accelerate, it either will be in 1st gear or a high gear 5-6? and will accelerate very slowly.
