| Description of the problem | I've had the dealer check the transmission a few times since the purchase 3/2014, mostly due to the transmission giving you a kick in the butt-so to speak, if you have slowed down, but not stopped in traffic, and then start to accelerate to regain some speed. That still occurs on occasion. But the newest issue is that while pulling into my garage to park within the last 2 weeks, i've slowed vehicle to place in "park" and it seems to give a very small, almost gentle lurch forward. It's not enough to hit anything but you van definitely feel it when this happens. Thankfully i haven't hit anything in the front of my garage-yet. I am at around the speed of 1 or 2 mph when this has happened the last 2 times. I'm now monitoring the dash to see if this is the consistent speed mph if it occurs again. Car is due in for maintenance soon and will have both issues checked out. |
