| Description of the problem | Driving home from store after getting dinner which is only 2. 2 miles away, made it 2 miles back home. Stoped at stop sign started to accelerate up a small incline, engine revved to red line. So i coasted to side of road, shut off vehicle, then started it to try and let it reset, it would not go at all or try to go into any gear only park will work. After letting it sit it will still not go into any gear or move at all. The transmission fluid is full and does not smell or look burnt, engine runs great and starts with no problems. I have seen that this is not the first complete made about this happening to this type of vehicle. It was made in may of 2005 and is considered a 2006. |
