Description of the problem	While driving 70 miles an hour on the highway my car suddenly shot up to 4000 rpm and wouldn't go faster than 30 miles an hour. After my car was towed to a local mechanic friend of mine's shop he told me the radiator had cracked, leaked coolant into the transmission, fried the transmission and torque control valve, all valves and seals, as well as both catalytic converters.
