“Transmission goes into neutral by it self when making turns and when gas is applied, engine keeps revving. Transmission kicks in gear causing a crash(a good possibility) and wheel spin when it is equipped with tcs!. Tcs does not operate. Transmission made whiney noise when it was new and contacted dealer.

Many other problems involved with the car. …”
