Reported on Apr 13, 2013
| DRIVING AT 65MPH WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET; WHEN SUDDENLY THERE WAS A VIOLENT JERK/HESITATION, AND AN EXTREMELY LOUD BANG, AS THOUGH I HAD HIT SOMETHING. STOPPED ON SIDE OF THE ROAD, VEHICLE NOT MAKING ANY DIFFERENT NOISE OR RUNNING DIFFERENT, PLACED WITHOUT A PROBLEM INTO PARK. CHECKED AROUND VEHICLE NOTHING OUT OF ORDER, NO FLUIDS RUNNING UNDER VEHICLE, TIRES OK, UNABLE TO LOCATE A PROBLEM. IT SEEMED LIKE A MISS OR SOMETHING WITH THE TRANSMISSION, DIDN'T NOTICE LIGHTS OR ANY THING ABNORMAL ON WARNING SYSTEM. GOT BACK IN CAR AND CONTINUED ON NO ABNORMAL NOISE, SHIFTED WITH OUT INCIDENT, NOT SURE BUT I AM WONDERING ABOUT A TRANSMISSION ISSUE, HOPE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. *TR | |
