 Description of the problemI initially had issues with the transmission slipping then there were engine issues compounding the problem. Re the transmission, my first occurrence was when i was about to enter a very busy intersection and my car would barely move. My mechanic explained later that the car was stuck in 3rd gear so i could not get my normal forward movement. He told me if it happened again to turn my engine off, count to ten and turn it back on. Fortunately he told me this because the next times it happened i was on lincoln blvd. In marina del rey, ca. And my car would not accelerate at all. One time i was at a red light so had time to turn it off and on. The next time i had to coast into a very small center divider that was growing smaller and with traffic flying by on my side and oncoming i had to turn off my engine, count to ten and turn it on. This caused a lot of angst since i had cars flying by and at me while doing this. There have been many other instances. I am getting no cooperation from mbz. *js
