Car started to lurch and whine while driving at any speed. Two weeks later it got worse and started to lose power or fail to accelerate while driving. Now vehicle will not go into gear most times. When it does it fails to move forward or backward, while pressing the gas pedal. Mechanic informed me that the transmission is slipping and needs to be rebuilt or replaced.
Transmission problem for miles over 60,000. When at stop light and try to accelerate when the light changes, car does not move when accelerator is pressed. While driving, car does not switch gears and car slows down. This is a very dangerous situation for the driver and passengers. If you are driving one of these cars, it will be deadly one day. I don't understand how these vehicles can be sold. After many people lose their lives, someone will notice. This car is dangerous on city streets and also interstate driving.
