1 Transmission Stuck In Gear problem

Failure Date: 09/01/2010

I was on I-95 n speed 65 mph. My car revved to 4-5 rpm and I noticed that even as I was pressing on the accelerator that the car was not gaining speed but decelerating. I pulled over on the shoulder an coasted to a stop. The car wasn't/didn't over heat, there was no dashboard lights that came on to warn me. I had no warning of any transmission problems before. I turned off the car and turn the car back on which worked just fine I went to put the car in drive and it wouldn't go anywhere. I put the car in overdrive and reverse an the same thing it was like it was stuck in a constant neutral. The car just hit the 60k mile a few days ago. While I waited on family members to come assist me I checked all fluid levels including the transmission and fluid was correct. From reading on the forums there has been many complaints about this same problem from more than a few thousand people. I will have to go to a shop and the average price for fixing this problem on average is 2 grand.
