| Description of the problem | I was sitting at the light when my vehicle starts to jump while the vehicle was idling. I took my foot off the brakes to move twith traffic and the vehicle jumps and then drives as normal. I took it to a local shop to have a mechanic look at the vehicle on the 3rd and while he was test driving the vehicle it completely stopped operating as we were turning around and the engine begins to rev but not move and after trying again to get the car to move the engine then began to make a knocking sound. The mechanic then determined that the transmission was going to be going out very soon. So i have parked the vehicle and been doing research to find that this a common thing with cvt transmissions as i have only had the vehicle for 6 years with 152,000 miles. There were no true signs of any transmission issues that i could have avoided this type of breakdown. |
