Description of the problem	After driving for about an hour the rpm's started going up and the car started whirring like it was straining. A light came on that i later identified as the transmission overheat light. The car slowed down on the interstate to about 5mph. I had to pull off and sit for about 30 minutes until the car cooled down and the light went off. I continued to drive and the very same thing happened two more times. Your car slowing down on a busy interstate coming from washington dc is very scary. I feel fortunate that we were able to get over and not crash. We took the car into a dealer who checked it and said there was no problem. So we drove it again. It happened again. This time during a 90 mile trip. This is very dangerous.
