Reported on May 05, 2013
| AFTER LEAVING I-20 AND ON THE ENTRANCE RAMP UNTO I-95 NORTH, I WAS ACCELERATING TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC WHEN THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTED INTO A LOWER GEAR, THE ENGINE RPM WENT UP, BUT THE VEHICLE DIDN'T ACCELERATE. I HAD TO BRAKE AND PULL OF TO THE SHOULDER TO ALLOW TRAFFIC TO PASS. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND IT FELT LIKE THE TRANSMISSION WAS SHAKING, AFTER A MILE EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL. WE WERE EXPERIENCING HEAVY RAINS ON I-20 WEST OF CHARLESTON SC. *TR | |
