Avenger 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 95,000 miles
Transmission jumps in and out of gear when ever it feels like it causing the front tires to lock up and the passengers to be tossed around. It will continully do this until I stop the car then its fine for a minute then it does it again. No matter what I do it keeps happening.
