problem #2

Sep 192014

TLX 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 220 miles
When driving at approximately 40 mph the car suddenly accelerates. I first noticed problem when coasting downhill, but now occurs on level highway also. Also there are periods when one tries to accelerate from a stop or from reverse to drive that the transmission hesitates before shifting into gear. At that point the engine has revved up causing the car to lurch forward when the gear does engage. Additionally even after a recall, the parking gear slips allowing the car to roll down hill. These problems have resulted in near accidents. Updated 11/18/15

TLX

  • 100 miles
(1) when at a complete stop with foot on the brake, it feels like someone is bumping the car from behind to make it go forward. (2) the car is cold with the temperate at 70 degrees and on auto - dealer suggested manually change the temperature to 85 degrees - car will become very uncomfortable. Have to manually keep changing the temperature every 10 minutes to make car comfortable.
