| Description of the problem | While driving on the highway the engine will start to whine and then lose power. Sometimes the transmission light will come on and sometimes it does not. Had to pull over 10 times during a trip that was 141 miles . Only 2 occupants in the car with no baggage or towing. Definitely was not overloaded and speeds were around 65 mph the entire trip. We do not feel safe in this car anymore and this is our family travel car! |
