| Description of the problem | Vehicle unexpectedly shifts to neutral, could happen while in motion (no turns) and also while turning, usually on a city street. It could happen once a month, or once every couple of months. Have taken it to dealership twice. And pcm/tcm shift was reprogrammed (but it did not fix the issue). I took it again and they insist nothing can be done because they cannot replicate the problem. I tried explaining it happens sporadically but i fear for my life because it has done it while turning and having traffic against me. Still nothing was done. It started shortly after i bought it and at the moment i thought i released the pedal by mistake but it kept happening i realized i had no way of causing the failure. It has happened several times throughout the (almost) 3 years i had the vehicle so i don't remember a specific date. Last time it happen was last week (05/20/2019-05/24/2019) but i don't remember which day. |
