2 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 07/07/2019

Car hesitates and rpms revs up acts like it's going to stall and die while driving on highway 55-80mph. Engine makes acceleration noises for no reason while driving. When you sit for 10 min and then go to drive car will not move at times. When you stop at stop signs or stop lights then try to drive again your foot will be all the way down on gas pedal car rolls forward at maybe 5mph almost got hit multiple times. Light turns red I'm in middle of street and car wont drive. This has gone on mainly in warmer weather after running ac and sitting in car then trying to drive. When get out of car notice a slight burning smell and antifreeze smell. Good 50 times in past year I've had this car. No one can find anything wrong with the car to fix issue. At stop lights have to turn car off and turn back on to get car to move when it starts acting up out of fear someone will end up hitting me because my car hesitates to go. Drives fine as long as I go from point a to b. If I start car let ac run to cool down then sit in car while running like in drive thru for 10 min then continue to drive will have these issues. Havent tried with running heat instead of ac.

While driving, the car would decrease in speed and acted if it wanted to stall. I took the car in for an appointment at the dealership and was told it was reading a code with the transmission and as scheduled to come in 3 days l as later when the part was in. After being at the dealership almost half a day, they tell me the transmission needed to be rebuilt. The dealership attempted to get me to drive it home (over an hour away( and bring it back another day. I was not going to accept this and requested a car to drive, which they did do so. However, when enterprise rental picked me up, they immediately knew it was transmission issues and proceeded to tell me that they are only good for 2 years.
