Description of the problem	Traveling down the interstate when a loud bang came from the transmission area of the vehicle and the rear wheels of the vehicle locked up causing the vehicle rear end to start hopping and sliding left. I regained control and put the gear shifter in neutral which allowed me to steer past a vehicle in the right lane and get to the shoulder of the highway. I looked in the rear view mirror and an 18 wheeler was on his brakes and was apparently going to pass close or crash into my vehicle. At this time i was moving at approximately 45-50 mph and i decided to go through the ditch and came to a stop on the frontage road. The vehicle was still running but would not throttle up. I placed the vehicle in park and attempted to throttle up which also failed. I turned the ignition off for approximately 10 minutes and crawled under the vehicle to look for damage. Amazingly no external damage was noted. At this time i restarted the vehicle and put the transmission in drive and everything worked as if nothing had ever happened. I drove the vehicle at a slow speed straight to the dealer and reported what had happened. The service manager recovered a code which had been stored when the incident happened. When the code was investigated the instructions directed the technicians to replace the megatronics valve body. Before a replacement part could be ordered the service manager received a call from the manufacturers transmission factory and was directed not to order a replacement part and that the factory would send the replacement part and to send the defective part back to the factory as soon as it was removed from the vehicle. I have researched this problem and this is not an isolated case. I was nearly killed due to a faulty part in a transmission and can only wonder who may have lost their life in the same situation. The vehicle was repaired but i could not trust it. I have sold it.
