WHEN THE CAR NEARS 45 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION STARTS SLIPPING. THE CAR STARTS JERKING AND ALMOST STOPS. FORTUNATELY, I WAS NOT MAKING A LEFT TURN OR MERGING INTO TRAFFIC WHEN IT FIRST OCCURRED. I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT OTHERS HAVE HAD COMPLETE LOCKUPS AT 55 MPH. I'M WONDERING IF ANY ACCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED AS A RESULT OF THIS PROBLEM. FORTUNATELY, I DID NOT BECOME A FATALITY. I WAS VERY NERVOUS ABOUT DRIVING TO THE REPAIR SHOP. THE TRANSMISSION IS BEING REPLACED. *TR
