The Automatic Transmission problem

I bought a used 1996 Toyota Avalon. It was covered under 6 year / 100,000 mile warranty. The warranty expired in March of 2002. I now have just over 100,000 miles on it. When putting the auto transmission in reverse from park or neutral the transmission engages violently.   Read details...
