| DURING LIGHT TO MODERATE ACCELERATION THE TRANSMISSION WITHOUT WARNING GOES BACK INTO A LOWER GEAR ( 1ST GEAR ). MY FIRST REACTION IS TO LET OFF THE ACCELERATOR DUE TO HIGH RPM. WHEN THIS HAPPENED THE CAR BEHIND ME ALMOST REAR ENDED ME. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER ONCE ALREADY AND I AM TAKING IT BACK AGAIN. UNFORTUNATELY THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES SINCE JAN 2012. MY MAIN CONCERN IS SOMETIMES WE HAVE ARE GRANDDAUGHTER WITH US AND AM AFRAID THAT THIS COULD CAUSE A ACCIDENT. *TR | |
