| Description of the problem | While driving on the hwy at 73 mph my truck randomly went from being in automatic to manual, stuck in 4th gear. It would not come out of 4th. After almost being rear ended due to my abrupt drop in speed i was able to coast and then brake to a stop on the side of the busy hwy. I had to turn the truck all the way off and then back on to redet it. As i crawled at a slow speed to get off the near exist it did it again. |
