MAZDA3

  • 150,000 miles
The car shifts completely wrong when it is going from 1st to 2nd gear. Sometimes its shifts really hard going between the two gears also. It kind of sounds like the gears are going to slip. Its even worse when it is really cold out. It jumps to 3rd gear at 15-20 mph sometimes also. I feel very unsafe when I drive my car.
