| Description of the problem | Vehicle stalled when approaching a stop. This happened twice. This is an automatic and should not be happening. I had to put the car in to neutral/park and restart it at an intersection where there's a firehouse. I've been told the torque converter needs to be replaced and there is already a tsb on the bad design of this part and that it needs to be replaced. At this point, i believe it should be recalled as it's happening more often than not to this particular transmission. This is very dangerous. |
