I was driving back home from my daughters doctors appointment. it was during rush hour traffic time. as i was trying to accelerate i felt a jerk on the card and the o/d light start flashing. i was almost home so i kept driving to make it home. did not want to b stranded in the road with my daughter. as i pushed on the gas it did not want to accelerate an more, all the lights started flashing and we pretty much strolled into the nearest gas station. i put it in park and waited a moment and tried to see if it would cut back on, but it didn't. i had my vehicle towed to the mechanic shop and he said it smelled like radiator fluid. after doing diagnostic he said problem was to due to a crack that leaked radiator fluid into transmission. so now i have to replace my transmission and radiator and computer. cost would be over $5,000. *tr
