Description of the problem	The manual transmission/stick shift constantly violently pops out of 1st and 3rd gear into neutral while accelerating causing a sudden, unexpected loss of power and control over the vehicle. The driver must come to a complete stop in traffic or have the vehicle continue to roll forward (or backward if on an upslope) while trying to re-engage the transmission. Unless and until the driver is able to re-engage the transmission, there is no active control over the forward movement of the vehicle to maintain vehicle speed or avoid a potential collision. This can lead to serious damage and/or injury to the vehicle, driver, drivers of other vehicles and pedestrians. This has been a continuing problem since the vehicle was new. Manufacture issued a tsb (#21-001-10 rev. A) regarding this issue caused by bad a synchronizer assembly. Dealer refused to correct the problem when the vehicle was under warranty b/c it happened less frequently then and dealer couldn't independently diagnose the problem. Now that it happens constantly the dealer refuses to correct the problem b/c the vehicle is out of warranty. This is a known dangerous defect but the dealer/manufacturer refuses to correct it.
