TAKATA RECALL WHEN I DRIVE MY CAR (ESPECIALLY ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN ACCELERATING) IT SEEMS TO NOT WANT TO SHIFT INTO GEAR. IT MAKES A WEIRD SOUND LIKE IT'S TRYING BUT IT DOESN'T SHIFT UNTIL I HIT ABOUT 62 MPH. ONE TIME I WAS DRIVING AND STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND WHEN I TRIED ACCELERATING MY GEAR WENT ALL THE WAY INTO THE RED AND I HAD TO PULL OVER SHUT MY CAR OFF AND COMPLETELY RESTART IT. ALSO SOMETIMES WHEN I BRAKE, IT SEEMS LIKE IT ACCELERATES FIRST AND THEN SLOWS DOWN. I'VE TRIED HAVING SOMEONE LOOK AT IT BUT IT JUST SO HAPPENS IT DIDN'T DO IT WHEN SOMEONE TEST DROVE IT. IT DOES IT 9/10 TIMES FOR ME THOUGH. I RECEIVED A LETTER ABOUT A RECALL BUT I CAN'T FIND IT WHICH IS THE ONLY REASON I HAD LOOKED INTO THIS SITUATION MORE. IT SEEMED LIKE MANY CARS OF MY MAKE MODEL AND YEAR WERE DOING EXACTLY WHAT I HAD BEEN TRYING TO EXPLAIN TO THE BODY SHOP HOWEVER WHEN I PUT MY VIN IN TO CHECK, IT SAID MY CAR HAD ZERO OPEN RECALLS. I STILL WANTED TO MAKE A REPORT JUST IN CASE IT HAD BEEN MISSED.
