During driving on highway around 70-75 mph and changing lanes transmission went in fail safe mode twice with triggering check engine light to come on. Stopped twice to reset it. Also, scanned codes revealed codes P2702, transmission friction element clutch C, P2704 -clutch C and P0730 - incorrect gear ratio. Took car back to dealership for suggestions in next step. Car has only 41789 miles and there was no leaks from transmission unit. Technician will check fluid level again and advised replacing transmission filter. Still waiting on call from dealership.
During driving uphill and applying gas pedal, transmission went in fail safe mode again. It seems like it wants to shift gears but somethings is holding or delaying in shifting. Had to pull over and reset it by turning car off and on again. This seems to happen around 4 and 5 gears.
