Description of the problem	4500 miles on vehicle, never towed anything, only normal city/highway driving, no long trips ever taken. Was turning left at intersection and transmission seemed to slip, truck still made it through, i then noticed that a yellow "wrench" light came on, i assumed this was for my upcoming 5k mile oil change. I didn't think much of the "slip" and assumed it was an anomaly. I then got onto the highway and noticed the truck was behaving strangely, power was inconsistent, i attempted to put it into cruise control and it refused to activate. I got off of highway and turned left at an intersection, starting from a complete stop the truck lurched forward and then slipped out of gear and stalled out in the intersection. If a car was coming i would have easily been struck. I let it sit for a few seconds and then the transmission finally got into, and stayed in, first gear. At first it went into gear and then slipped out of gear. This "wrench" light was apparently a limp home mode, another complaint, besides the stalling, would be the fact that this little yellow wrench light does nothing to warn me that the truck is actually in an impaired state, a "limp" mode. I work in the aerospace industry and this would never be tolerated, a function that hampers the normal performance of your vehicle should be easy to recognize as a warning, a little yellow wrench looks like a service light.
