Description of the problem | Vehicle transmission disengaged, causing the engine to rev up without speeding as if it was in neutral, immediately losing speed causing a safety hazard. Check engine light turned on. Transmission re-engaged abruptly and car would not shift properly so had to be driven in lower gears, again posing a safety hazard. Dealership advised issue was related to the clutch and was covered under manufacturer's program 14tm01, yet this extended warranty was not applicable to the 2014 model, even though it was the same issue. |
