| Description of the problem | Transmission light came simultaneously with car losing ability to shift gear, move forward or reverse. I was in a precarious situation as i was on a heavily traveled road. Car is being towed to dealership. This is a brand new car and clearly there is a dangerous issue with the transmission of this car. I am very concerned to drive this vehicle, even after the car has any necessary repairs. I believe this car is a poses a serious safety threat due to its inability to gain speed or change gears at critical times. |
