TAKATA RECALL ON CHRISTMAS NIGHT MY CAR WOULDN'T GO IN REVERSE.IT HAS TRANSMISSION FLUID IN THERE.I DROVE AROUND TO THE STORE AND IT WON'T GO OVER 60MPH.

I SEE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE CONTROL ARM IT WAS NEVER FIXED SO HOW DO I GET IT REPARIED

THE CAR EITHER ACCELERATING OR BRAKING JERKS AS IF IT STARTS AND STOPS ON IT'S OWN. I AM AFRAID OF DRIVING IT. I'VE HAD IT TO THE DEALER A COUPLE OF TIMES AND MY FIRST COMPLAINT WAS THAT IT JERKED INTO GEAR. IT DIDN'T MATTER IF REVERSE OR FORWARD. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON. THE DEALER REPLACED A SHIFT SENSOR BUT THAT DIDN'T FIX THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NOR THE STOP AND START AT RANDOM TIMES. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE CAR SLOWS WAY DOWN AND I BARELY CAN GET IT TO GO FORWARDS. THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS AT NIGHT. I PULLED ONTO A STREET FROM A STOP SIGN INTO TRAFFIC. I BARELY WENT HALF A BLOCK AND HAD TO PULL INTO A DRIVEWAY TO GET OUT OF THE TRAFFIC BEHIND ME. THE ESC LIGHT CAME ON BRIEFLY ON THE DASH. I LOOKED AT THE OFF SWITCH AND IT WAS ILLUMINATED. I PUSHED IT OFF I THINK. THE ROAD WAS DRY AND THERE WAS NO REASON THAT TURNING AT 5 MPH WOULD CREATE A REASON FOR SUCH A REACTION FROM THE CAR. I ONLY HAVE 30K MILES ON THE VEHICLE. IT SHOULD NOT BE DOING THIS. *TR
