The transmission pops in and out. When I'm stopped and hit the gas, it takes a second to initiate movement. The car is unsafe as it stalls at random moments where it is imperative to not decelerate. For instance, I have many times been waived to get in a lane, and as I say thank you and go from 4-3 or 3-4 gear, the vehicle will just stall and make me sit there with a big grin on my face "one second... I told my car to go, it will do so when it feels like it!"

When starting from a stop, the transmission hesitates to engage, leaving you helpless and worried you will cause an accident. Also, when going slowly over a speed bump, the transmission doesn't seem to know what to do next....very strange sensation.
Got an appointment on Wednesday, August 7th. I'll add more when I find out if they can fix it.

When I shift from park to drive there is a long hesitation before the transmission kicks in. Its very annoying.
