“I was driving home and was stopped at a red light. I felt a jerk from under the hood then the check engine light came on. My car then began to drive very sluggishly and struggled to pick up speed. I made it home a few blocks away and had it towed to the shop where I was told I needed a new transmission. The codes I received were p1754, p1757, and p1759. I was told there was a recall for the 5 speed only. I would like to add that I have never had a check engine light on or had any problems wih my vehicle until now. I think it should be expanded to the awd as well.”
