Hey All,
Was driving my wife's 2009 Vibe (1.8, Auto, 200k Miles) the other day. Was on a slightly hilly road doing about 60mph with the cruise set. When climbing a couple of the hills it downshifted so violently it was like hitting a small deer. Never slipped or anything like that just was a big BANG and whole vibe jolted like a bad pothole or something and rpm go up and up the hill we go. The transmission was serviced about a year ago. New fluid and filter. Didnt do a complete flush just what was in the pan. Fluid is good.
Wife says it has happened to her before but only with the cruise set. Any other time it seem to be fine.
Any suggestions?
