Have the codes read , the tranny may need a special code reader , fluid should be nice and pink , not burnt smelling ,, and at the proper level . The vin can be searched but you have to find the DMV one as I remember to get recalls , Like reagan said at the iran contra trial , " I'm sure that information exists but I don't know where to find it ".

Yes, I would like to know what the diagnosis was as well. Fiancé has the same vehicle with the EXACT same issue. Please let me know what the issue was. Thank you!
