| Description of the problem | I was driving from bloomington ca to phoenix az.. As i approached an incline on interstate 10 the vehicle began to climb the grade it suddenly began to loose speed and power. A whirring noise was comeing from the engine /transmission compartment. The vehicle quickly began to loose power and speed. It quickly went from 70 mph to about 10 mph. I luckily reached the top of the grade and pulled over to the side of the road. I could not pull over earlier because large semi-trucks were having to go around me. This caused a very dangerous situation since it is only a two lane highway and i was impeding traffic. When i pulled over i shut the engine off and opened the hood to see if there was some obvious reason for the problem. There was not. I let the engine cool a liitle then proceeded on to see if i could make it to my destination. I proceeded at a low speed until i got to to my destination. I had noticed in the past some issues with climbing inclines but never to the extent experienced presently. I went to the dealer in az and was toldit was the transmission and was probably caused by transmission overheating. Since the trip was only a couple of days i will have to try to make it home as is. |
