general problems of the 2012 Suzuki Kizashi

Purchased car from family friend about two weeks ago. First day we got the car, it shifted extremely hard. The transmission is causing the rpms to rise rapidly when trying to shift gears. It also cut all movement to the vehicle, meaning could not move forward or reverse. Hard shifting or not shifting at all. Had to get it towed to my home. Tried changing the transmission fluid and also the filter. No success. Car still not working correctly.

On long trips vehicle shuts down and goes into limp mode. It has a very rough idle after restart when it allows you to go. The rims have massively lost large chunks of paint from them as well. It is never close to a dealership when it happens. This normally happens when you are running on the interstate and the vehicle dies in the middle of six lanes of heavy traffic. When this happens no warning lights nor messages appear on the dash. It just shuts down and you literally have to limp it off the road and let it set for a long period of time before it will restart. When it restarts it idles roughly for a long period of time.

While traveling on the ohio and pennsylvania turnpike the vehicle loses power and the ability to accelerate. Speed limit is 70 miles per hour in this zone loss of acceleration led to a abrupt stop going uphill. Pedal is fully push to the maximum acceleration point. This usually takes place when driving the vehicle for more than one hour. This issue has happened numerous times with the excess of 30 plus.

While driving of the freeway, car lost the ability to accelerate causing loss in speed while going 75 on the freeway.
