 Description of the problemStarted in 2015 transmission shuddered/vibrated/hesitation on highway, lack of power, car would jerk like i had been it on highway, onboard computer was re programed in october of 15 and again in jan of 17. Car is not storing computer codes when it acts up. On 7/17/18 the check engine light comes on i called dealer got an appointment for 7/17/18, check engine light had gone off before the dealer saw the car, and the on board computer did not store a code for them to figure it out. When i left the dealer i did not get a block when the check engine light came back on and the car started jerking, i pulled into a parking lot to turn around and go back to the dealer however the car would not go into reverse, i tried a half dozen time to back up including turning off the engine. The car next to me left and i was able to make a u turn, by the time i got back to the dealer they were closed. I brought the car back the next morning they were able to retrieve to code and replace the transmission control module. In august of 18 one day leaving the gas station when i put the car into drive all it did was rev the engine another time when i backed out of my parking place and tried to drive away it would not go into drive. This happened again in december. Lately i have a problem where the engine will rev up while driving on the highway, it usually is only for a few seconds. The rpm's would double when this happened. On 12/7/18 this happened again, however i had to take my foot of the accelerator in order for the engine to stop the revving. The revving of the engine is not on specific dates, however happens once or twice a week usually on the highway.
