 Description of the problemAfter only owning my vehicle for less than 72 hours, and driving about 380 miles, my transmission appears to have had a complete failure. I noticed it downshifting very hard at a stop light, then again a mile or so down the road. By the time i got to another stop light, my car downshifted so violently it slammed me into my seat belt and scared me badly. It felt as if the car had shifted in park while it was still rolling forward at about 10 miles an hour. When i attempted to accelerate away form the light, the car would not up shift, so i had to limp it into the next parking lot at 4k rpms at about 7 mph. When i pulled into the parking space, the vehicle would not shift into park. After several attempts, the car finally shifted out of drive into reverse, and after several more attempts, it finally shifted into park allowing me to turn off the engine. While i was not really injured behind a slight soreness from the seat belt, had i been traveling at highway speeds when the vehicle down shifted into park, there would have been a serious accident.
