Especially in the morning, but then it just became anytime, when you would try to drive, the transmission would slip shifting from 1st to 2nd, making the car buck. When this happened, the RPMs would spike, the wrench light, traction control light, and engine light would come on. When I took my foot off the accelerator, the lights would go off. I couldn't get the car to go over 40 mph when babying it up and tried to stay under 2000 RPMs because it would act up worse when the RPMs were higher. Mechanic was great about trying different things that were low cost to figure out the problem. But it finally ended up being the computer in the transmission, which we would have to rebuild or replace for at least $2,000.
