Description of the problem	Transmission went out while coming home from christmas with family on rt i70 just before hagerstown md. Lost all fluid from transmission causing entire vehicle to fill with smoke. There is a recall for the torque converter i have since been informed that could cause the transmission itself to fail. However the dealer says only the torque converter is under recall and wants $3000 to replace entire transmission! They have not even looked at the transmission to see what is wrong. Their reasoning is that since the fluid came out and covered underside of van then it must be a completely bad transmission.
