| Description of the problem | I bought the car last year and it has only been about 13 months. About three months ago, i noticed that there was a kind of jerk when i would start off a stop light and accelerate. First thinking it was not a great deal, i kept going however i noticed it that it was becoming more constant. One day about to reverse out of a parking lot, i put the car in reverse, and the car turned off. There was no response at all from the transmission. I then turned the ignition off and restarted it and it started working fine. Being late for work, i then continued on and until yesterday everything was okay. Yesterday, i got into my car, started it, switched to drive, and the engine shut off and there was no response from the transmission. I turned the ignition off, turned it on again, moved the shifter into reverse and the engine shut off again. I have since had it towed and it is being checked at the dealership. This being a one year old car, i do not expect it to give these issues. |
