Filed May 24, 2002 · Acceleration, Transmission · MA

Transmission failing. Clutch engages late and suddenly: engine revs as gas is applied but clutch doesn't engage, then clutch engages suddenly, causing car to jerk forward hard. This is dangerous--can't pull out into traffic, because I don't know if car will actually go when I step on the gas, and car coasts as transmission tries (but fails) to shift between e.g. 1st and 2nd. Please require a recall on this--many people have reported the same problem in auto newsgroups on the internet. This is clearly a manufacturing defect, and a potentially serious safety problem as well.
