Neon 2.0

  • Automatic transmission
  • 95,000 miles

The problem i am having is when i push down on the gas pedal hard as if to pass someone the transmission will jump out of drive into neutral. This is a new problem, so i checked the motor mounts and i did have a broken front one, replaced and still have the problem. The other thing if i do hold it in gear when i hit the gas the car will not go into passing gear.

Other then that the transmission acts normal if i had not tried to pass a car i would never had known the problem was there.
