 Description of the problemTraveling freeway 75 miles per hr transmission overheats light comes on and we lost all power with diesels baring down behind us. Speed drops fast to 60 had to coast out of way of traffic behind us to edge of freeway. Called dealership was told to let it cool down and take it to dealership in burley id. They found nothing on computer. Happened again going 75 last week sept 8 same thing. Small grandkids in back seat each time this is a dangerous situation since speed drops drastically with cars or diesels behind you and all you can do is coast off. Engine does not quit just cant go anywhere loses all transmission function. Was told this is happening with several of these types of transmission and to drive in cooler weather keep speed down to 65 and when it happens to pull off put in neutral and race engine to cool it i shouldn't have to do that!!!! Its a danger.. Its not safe!! It happened going 40 in traffic also. In first couple thousand miles took it in numerous times. Found federal investigation stating no recall at the time. Its needs to be recall before someone is killed, accidents have occurred to others.
