Description of the problem	When driving 45 miles per hour or 25 mph, the cars rpm's rev really high and the car gets stuck, i could not accelerate and was almost hit from behind. It has done this several times. I was going 75 miles per hour on the highway, the rpm"s revved really high and i could not accelerate or move. Then the d on the dashboard dropped from d to 4 to 3 to 2...... I had to wait for it to shift back into gear on its own and then it went back into drive and i could move. However it continued to do that 4 times later in the same day. I have had the vehicle in several times for this issue and they keep saying there isn't anything wrong. This is very dangerous and i have 3 small children so i am very concerned about this issue as it is continuing to do it. Getting stuck in gear is not safe nor is having the rpm's rev that high and being stuck on a highway!
