| Description of the problem | When accelerating the vehicle's rpm rev, hesitation and then the vehicle speeds up once transmission engages with the engine. The vehicle accelerates at a high speed. This has happened over the last three months on an incline, 1. 0 grade while merging onto the freeway. On flat surfaces, this does not occur. No warning indicator light to indicate there was an issue. The last time the hesitation happened i was traveling at 50 mph to gain speed to merge onto the freeway. The vehicles rpm was between 5-6 and the transmission would not engage however it did move forward and allowed me to pull off to the shoulder. At this time there is no invoice. We have a verbal estimation of $4,000 for the transmission, center city automotive in davis, ca. |
