| Description of the problem | Problem started while at a stop light transmission started to malfunction. Wouldn't shift properly then engine died. Took to dealership. Supossedly they repaired but month later same problem. Took back and returned as if problem was fixed. 3rd time same but this time my car was shifting very hard and just locked up. Back to dealership which they claimed was sensor replaced and retuned to me. 4th time took back which they claimed it was gas tank. Replaced gas tank. 5th time driving on freeway when transmission locked up and was stranded again only this time it completely locked down. Managed to coast car to shoulder on freeway and police showed up to stay behind me to keep from getting hit by oncoming freeway traffic. Now service center claims it is the vapor canister.
