Engine Rattling And Whining Sounds Problems of Mitsubishi Outlander

Transmission/engine makes a high pitched whining noise when accelerating above 2000 rpms currently. It started out only doing it when going up hill at higher rpms but has gotten worse. It has also affected the electrical system and had the locks, backup camera, reverse lights all going haywire. This was witnessed by my oil shop while getting an oil change on it the mechanic couldnt get the vehicle from drive to park amd once it did go it would unlock from park. I was told it was sensors by a Mitsubishi dealership but that didnt solve the problem. It revs the engine it high tpms while driving not lettingnit shift from 1st to 2nd and makes it so you cant get the vehicle off the road because the transmission shuts down. Even in neutral the rpmswill increase when it does this. This is a saftey issue with this engine/transmission if you get stuck in a high traffic area and can not get to a safe pulloff. Ive had my kids in the car when this has happened and the dealerships (all 3 of them) CA not find the problem. I have had to miss work for these appointments and now the warranty is expired as I bought it used and can not afford to replace a transmission or engine and being this is my only vehicle and nothing could be done while it was under warranty and seeing others complaining of the same things with there vehicles it needs to be addressed and corrected. It also smells like rubber or electrical burning when this happens.
