What owners wrote
When the vehicle is already in motion, it automatically shifts out of drive and I am left in the middle of the road unable to accelerate for a few seconds until the vehicle automatically shifts back to drive. This happens after pulling out of my gravel driveway which is a slight incline, and onto a highway. The cause is unknown.
