Description of the problem	Just recently got my car fully service and within 2 weeks later i was driving my vehicle and it started decelerating and shifting abnormal. All my fluids was visible in my car and its not shifting properly, wont let me catch speed past 33mph, wont go in reverse and also sometimes it stall to go forward. I believe this vehicle should be on recall due to safety driving issues. I have 2 family members that own the same kind of vehicle like me and they are experiencing the same issues with they car. Got it towed to dealership and i was told that my transmission would need repair or get a new one. Havent heard anything back to why so many people having the same issues so figure i would give this a shot so these vehicles can get inspected. During the time of my issues, my vehicle was in motion on a busy street and it seem like as i make a turn it wouldnt get no better. Wont let me catch speed once it decelerate and wont reverse at all(i can put it in reverse gear but its not backing up at all).
