In the evening of 12/23/2015 when entering freeway 101 in CA at the gilroy entrance, I pressed the accelerator pedal in my vehicle in order to reach the freeway speed of 65 mph. When pressing the accelerator I didn't get the acceleration going and I experienced a sudden jerk motion in the car. The car did not accelerate up to the 65 mph and I had to enter the freeway at a speed of about 40-50 mph. If a driver had been entering the freeway behind me at regular acceleration, probably he would had crash into my car. After noticing the lack of acceleration, I felt the car tried to change gears but didn't, experiencing more jerking when pressing the accelerator. After driving in the freeway for 13 miles, I exit the freeway and the checkengine light came on. I was able to drive home and next day drive to the local mechanic for a quick checkup. The local mechanic did a computer diagnosis and determined there was a problem with the transmission and the transmission solenoid. My car has only 73,179 miles and is is pretty unusual that such a driven vehicle fails at this mileage. 2 more diagnostics were run with the computer description stating clutch pressure disengagement performance. Transmission fluid levels fine. This kind of failure is inadmissible in a car this old and very dangerous in a highway scenario.
