| Description of the problem | While driving at interstate speeds of 70-75 mph, the motor revved up to 3500 rpm's and i discovered that the car had lost propulsion and would not pull. I was able to coast onto the shoulder and stopped. I took the gearshift out of drive and placed it into park. I put it back into drive, and it began to work again. This first occurred in july of 2018. It happened several more times where-in the car appeared to shift out of gear even though the shifter was in the d position. I took it to the dealer and was told that there was a recall and the computer needed updating. This service was performed on that day. Since then, the vehicle has continued to appear to jump into neutral while i am driving at highway speeds. The motor will revv, and the vehicle stops pulling. I took it back to the dealer today and was told that there was nothing wrong with it. *dt *js *dt |
