Description of the problem	I was driving down the interstate on my way to work one morning going approximately 75 mph when suddenly in the fast lane passing a car, my motor just revs. I coast to the edge of the road as safely as possible (this was during 8:00am rush hour traffic). Then i was stranded there for over an hour waiting for my boss to come pick me up. Later that afternoon i had the van towed to a garage and hooked up to diagnostics which said the torque converter was out and then towed home at a cost of $225. My van which i loved up until that day is sitting at my house waiting to be repaired which i can not afford at this time. It makes me sick to have to pay the car payment and fix it too. And because this happened i missed three days of work and now no longer have transportation to and from work, which may turn end up having my beloved van reposessed and end up losing my job. I hope they get the recall out there asap so i can get this fixed!!!
