I T started around October 25,2001, while driving on the expressway.I was driving in 5th gear around 65 mph when suddenly the stick jumped out of gear into neutral by its self, I looked down to see what had happened, . ther E was nothing attached to the stick, in other words nothing was hanging (no garbage bag or anything.this has happened at least 6 times.the car growls and I have to put it back in gear, now I'm anervous wreck.I took it into the the dealer twice and they couldn't find the problem.it has happened 3 more times since. I'm afraid to drive past 40mph or take the expressway. It seems to be a problem with the gear-shift\gas pedal\cluth, you can feel when its going to happen because th pedal moves under your foot and the shift gear moves if you put your hand on it.
