Automatic transmission disengages while traveling at speed. Card rolls backward on any type of hill. I have been driving and was passing a vehicle on a 2 lane road and had the transmission disengage and narrowly avoided an accident as there was no power to the drive wheels to get back into the traffic lane. This car has been in multiple times for transmission work. The tcm and automatic clutch replaced with another faulty tcm & automatic clutch. This model of transmission is a danger to the driving public.
