Transmission has bad solenoid in transmission. While yruck was in motion no signs that the vehicle had issues and dropped to limp mode while driving on the highway. Check engine came on shooting trouble code po796. Found this to be common with many other same year make and models, even told so by transmission shop. Wanted to report this incase it needs to be added to possible future recall
