Description of the problem | My finance and i went on trip to tennessee. On the expressway i was driving around 70 miles per hour. The car started to slow down on it own in the middle of traffic. It dropped from 70 to 60 and then to 45 without me doing anything. It started shifting gears automatically on it owns. Then i pushed the gas and it went back up to 70. Once we arrived to tennessee we had to go up mountains and the car started to stall again in the mountains. This was very scary. As i was going into the mountains the car almost stopped while driving. The car kept shifting gears even when i am barely pressing the gas. I had to pull over and shut the car off and start it again. The car started stalling the first day of purchasing it but i thought it was suppose to this until it did it on the express way. I have a brand new car that i am afraid to drive it on long distance trips because of this issue. Talk about disappointing. |
