I had just gotten off and exit ramp and was getting on the interstate. When my car got up to 40 MPH, it bogged down and down shift. I removed my foot from the gas pedal and let it get down to 30 MPH, and applied my foot on the gas pedal again. This time when it got to 40 MPH, it bogged down the only difference in the first time, it jerked. When I got off the interstate, I pulled into a parking lot and let the vehicle cool down for about 30 minutes, I started the car, but now it would not go into reverse or drive 1. I had to push the vehicle out of the parking spot, when I put it into drive, it went with easy. I noticed that the vehicle was not changing out like normal and the RPM gauge read 2500 RPM at 50 MPH. This has never happen before december 15th. I would love to know what is going on with my vehicle.

There issue was intermittent so there are no defining moments that lead to the start of the issue. The vehicle would idle at 2000 to 3000 RPM while in park and at time redlining itself. If the problem occurred while driving the car would begin to accelerate and would be hard to brake. At stops the car would lurch forward. During these events the vehicle check engine light would not display and not code was recorded by the computer. After four trips to the dealership the power train control module (PCM) was found to be faulty and was replaced.

At times, vehicle RPM's will jump about 300 higher than normal. It can do it on up hills, on flat and on down hills. It is more prevalent when cresting a hill. The RPM's will not move all the way up the hill but when the car crests, it will sometimes do it. I've had it to the dealer three times but they haven't been able to duplicate it but they also only take it out for five or ten minutes for a test drive. I notice it more when I do a trip of some kind on the highway. I don't notice it very much in my everyday driving but I don't usually drive very far weekdays. It has been doing it for over six months. It doesn't seem to be getting any worse but it also isn't getting any better. It can happen 15 - 20 times on a two hour trip.
