The transmission would slip into neutral when pulling into traffic also I noticed it, sometimes on the highway, total lose of power. We took the car in 4 times before the dealer diognosed the problem with the transmission. We have extended warrenty so we paid $100. Now the car seems not to have the acceleration power from a stop that it once had. Also, the engine sounds loud when accerating. And I have lost fuel economey.
