  I know about shifting into first if going to fast but I am having problems
shifting into 2nd and 1st.
I have not called my dealer yet about the tsb but I will today.  If I find
anything else out I will let the
list now.  As an after thought I have had no other problems with my car and can
only say that I love
it.....when it goes in gear that is ;)
