| Description of the problem | In 2018 initially it started when we were driving it down the highway or street and it seem to lose power and we would press on the gas and it would sputter. There were times when we're at the stoplight and press on the gas and it wouldn't move creating a dangerous situation. This happened for about 2 months until it wouldn't move in drive or reverse, so towed home then to dealership because of a recall on a transmission control module only to find out from the service department that they could not update the control module because the vehicle would not move they did a diagnostic test and said we needed a cvt automatic transaxle assembly transmission. We bought it used in 2016 and now it only has 74,000 miles on it. Never had a problem out of it until last year 2018. Now when we put it in drive or reverse it will not move. |
