“The transmission was replaced at 15,312 miles, defaulted to 2nd gear. The transmission was not seeming to stay in gear at 47,028 miles, engine would suddenly rev-up then slowly take off (diagnosed by dealer as fuel pick up problem); however, I had their transmission service done at that time, 10 months ago.
