| Description of the problem | Problem began with the car bucking significantly after changing gears. Then, when the car was in drive (but foot was on the brake), car would start to buck again, transmission slowed, car would not accelerate, kept bucking and lights in car dimmer. Had to keep restarting the car to get it to keep going. But, once i used the brake again, the bucking and loss of acceleration would start all over again. Dealer continues to state that the computer in the car is not registering any problems at all. Has been in the dealer 3 times over the last 3 weeks. This all happened when the vehicle is in motion, on any kind of street or highway, whenever the gear begins to cause bucking after changing. |
