Transmission damaged beyond repair--issues with valve body, torque converter, 2nd and 3rd gears. Leaking fluid everywhere. However, transmission was not replaced at shop, because this model of transmission apparently wasn't available used in mechanic's parts network. Fix estimated to cost $3000 or more once transmission becomes available. |

Transmission locked up in park. Would not move out of park in any key position. Took car to independent car repair, where they fixed solenoid. All work's well now. |
