*from a cold start, it goes into R just fine, but it doesn’t react in any of the D’s (3,2,Lo). After shifting gears a lot and backing up a hill and coasting back down about 5 times, I goes into 2nd auto gear and all the ones up, but will not go into the 1st D gear. (this is all while it’s in the common D gear). Okay, so as long as it’s not turned off, the car drives fine in all of the gears except for the low gear/1st gear. But soon as you turn engine off, you’re back to no D gears again. Not gonna need a new transmission, am I?

These symptoms could be from quite a few issues. If your car will not go forward, this is likely an issue within your transmission system. Unfortunately, we can not diagnose your vehicle without seeing it in one of our service centers. If you are local to Colorado stop by one of 14 Colorado AAMCO Service centers stop on by for a vehicle courtesy check.
Thanks,
AAMCO Colorado

Well, two hours driving on the road my car started to slow down and starting making a noise as if I had it in the wrong gear and didn’t want to go forward as I pushed on the gas. I turned off my car, turned it back on which I had no problem with. It crunk perfectly as it always does without any lights coming on telling me something was wrong. It just would not go forward and I’ve never had this problem before. Can someone please tell me what could be wrong?
