This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
While driving at highway speeds (50-75 mph) the overdrive would dissengage. In turrn the RPM would ramp up. This would happen randomly. Somtimes pulling off and turning car off and starting it again temporarily fixed problem. Finally, we took it to a mechanic. He found that the wiring uner the stick (automatic) were bare and touching. He fixed the wiring and never had a problem since. I have noted many other entries with similar problem.
Driving on the highway doing 50 my RPM is around 4000 a few months later December 2003 transmission was replaced. Now January 2005 RPM is acting up again, I had my car checked out at the garage where my transmission was put in and they see no problem with it at all, they think maybe it is electrical"??" dealership said they have had no complaints on this....I hate cars!!!!
