What owners wrote
While driving at higway speeds of 55 to 60 MPH vehicle will automatically downshift on its own, reducing the speed very quickly. This has nearly resulted in a driver's whiplash. Dealer has been contacted.
While driving the transmission downshifts to limp mode causing a highly probable danger situation that may lead to serious injuries especially if traveling on the freeway. We have replaced the TCM at $166.00from a dealer and another dealer sucked approx.300.00 knowing that there is no way of fixing the defective transmission. Why are you still allowing the dealers to replace parts that they fully know won't fix the main problem? Why is there no recall on the defective transmissions?
