What owners report
While driving the 2021 slingshot R it will randomly be thrown into neutral! I was on the side roads and then got onto highway and it slammed into neutral when I had a F350 right on my butt and almost killed me!
During a 150-mile ride, I experienced that while braking for a stop or a traffic slowdown, this unit shifted into neutral, and all of the dash warning lights came on at the same time. This happened 5 times during the ride. I had to coast to the side of the road, shut down, and restart the engine. Once, almost being rear-ended by a vehicle, and I didn't have the power to get to the side of the road. Once this occurs, the unit will not allow you to shift it at all without a shutdown and restart, it is stuck in neutral until this is done. To me, this is creating a dangerous situation of possibly being rear-ended in traffic by not being able to get out of the way because of no propulsion. This
