Description of the problem | The transmission shifts abruptly and engine runs rough when stopped. The car will lunge forward after taking foot off brake without touching the accelerator. The car looses power at highway speeds causing to slow down at highway speeds. While backing up the car binds up and grinds as the car rolls backwards. Upon accelerating from at stop the car has loss of power then rpm go up before the transmission abruptly shifts causing the car to speed up too fast or almost to the point of being out of control. I have taken the car to the shop twice and had to have it towed to a third dealer shop. |
