My first incident was on July 17, 2023, the transmission shifted from drive to neutral, with out me touching the gear shift lever in any way. My safety and any passengers I have in this car, could be at risk, at this point I was going about 40 MPH, going into a gradual curve, entering a Entrance to 95 north, I had slowed down to the entrance ramp speed, this is when the transmission went from Drive to Neutral, with out me touching the gear shift lever. I had a appointment at Quirk Auto Park, there service dept. in Bangor, Maine, no warning lamps came on the dashboard, they proceeded to put the diagnostic tool on the car, they came out maybe 15or20 minutes later, they didn’t find anything. The first incident I also reported to the NHTSA. The second incident took place on 10/20/23, I was going under 25 MPH, I was into a left hand turn, the transmission came out of drive, and went into neutral, I did not touch the gear shift lever at all. There was no warning lamps that came on after this second incident either.
