| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | There was no evidence nor warning that the transmission would stop shifting gears. I was leaving home heading to work when the vehicle suddenly stopped accelerating. I was able to pull over to a somewhat safe location only to find out that when i turned my van off and then back on it would not shift gears. It sounds like its stuck in neutral all the time. I live in north texas and with the temp being over 105 today i was just a bit upset that this happened out of nowhere. I have not at this time had a repair man look at it, because i can not afford one. I did make sure that all the wiring was connected properly. |
