| Description of the problem | I was driving on the highway when the car started running rough. Next the rpm's display was jumping around. The car just slowed down like it was going to stop in the middle of the highway. When i got to town it became worse. The car had a delay when i tried to accelerate from a dead stop the car sounded like it was a standard instead of an automatic. Also after shifting to drive or reverse it was a long wait before the car would engage. When i took the car to the dealer they diagnosed that the transmission had gone out. I had the car from april 22 to may 3 when this occurred. |
