Was driving doing 60 mph saw a sprocket light up on the dash and the car seemed to be slipping in and out of gear when I exited the freeway I had no momentum or power. and of course I was 300 miles from my home and tow fees and time spent just to get it home well that wasn't fun. And I have no rev. no drive in first or second but if someone pushes the car 20 mph it will catch 3rd gear and drive .
