| Description of the problem | I was driving on the interstate, and then all the sudden the rpms went up and i had no control with the gas pedal, like it was in neutral, i pulled over to the shoulder put it in park, put it back in drive and it started to go again, as soon as i hit 4th gear it did it again. Took it to the transmission shop and the told me it was the radiator leaking into the transmission because of a cracked line. See this has been happening frequently with this model, why no warning or recall? |
