Description of the problem | I was driving at 60 mph on highway but suddenly the engine revved all the way to 7000 rpm and the car jerked violently. I put my foot off the accelerator but the engine still stays at 5000 rpm and doesn't go back down to normal. Had to pull over to the shoulder with emergency light on. Tried to get back on the highway but at 35 to 40 mph, the engine made loud revving noise and the rpm jumped to 7000 again. Had to pull over again and call for a tow truck. |
