I WAS DRIVING FROM HOUSTON TO THE WOODLANDS GOING HOME FROM WORK. NOTICED THE RPM KEPT REVVING UP AND I COULDN'T CONTROL THE SPEED. THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON. I HAVE TAKEN GOOD CARE OF THIS CAR. HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE RPM METER AND MY ENGINE BEFORE. RON CARTER IN ALVIN SAID IT WAS A COMPUTER ISSUE AND "FIXED" IT WHILE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY. THE PROBLEM HAS NOW COME BACK IN UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS. I COULD HAVE SERIOUS HURT OR KILLED MYSELF AND OTHER DRIVERS AROUND ME. I FEEL THE TRANSMISSION IS HAVING MAJOR PROBLEMS. *TR
