Transmission Failed

"had been having ongoing problems with the car "hiccuping"..hesitating when accelerating or letting off gas, & the amps would jump around..but had had car to the shop only about 2 weeks before for this problem. kept getting what they called "phantom codes" on the check engine light. my grandson died, & i went to a store to get flowers ordered for his funeral, came back out & tried to leave BUSY parking lot..got right in the middle of a steet there & car wouldn't move. no big noises,or grinding when putting in gear,or anything...just gone. cost nearly $2,800 to replace. this is a car i had bought brand new,& had maintained it specifically to manufacturer specifications. it only had 62,000 miles on it,& wasn;t driven hard at any point. "


There Are Most Common Solutions:
  1. replace transmission 
  2. not sure
  3. replace torque converter 
  4. sitting in drive way trying to figure something out
  5. rebuilt the transmission replacing only failed parts
  6. scrap it!
