What owners wrote
On an uphill section of road (slight incline) with an automatic transmission in drive while stopped for a stop sign, I released my foot from the brake and before I could step on the accelerator, the car started to roll backwards. I was able to realize what was happening and jammed down the gas pedal to avoid rolling backward into the next car in line behind me. A person crossing the street between my car and the car behind would have been crushed.
Transmission slipping so I took in and had a trans flush and then, 6 months after that my whole transmission came out. A 2007 model should last a littler longer than that. I am stuck without a vehicle.
