“The transmission control module stopped working. After trying to turn the car on. It would only move in 1st gear and in reverse. It happened a second time less then 6 months later. The car shifted into drive and the entire car jerked and made a popping sound. And would again only work in 1st and reverse. The 3rd I was driving on the interstate. As I got on the off ramp the car beeped like it was out of gas and then about a second later the traction control light and oil temperature light came on and the car felt like some one had slammed on the brakes briefly. …”
