| Description of the problem | I was traveling down 78 ( a major road in town and my van (04 mercury monterey) just quit going. I had to coast into a turn lane to get out of the main road. It was very dangerous and i had my kids in the car. There was no warning at all, it just quit going. I called my dad and he got the repair shop to pull my car out of the turn lane. The mechanic said it was my transmission; it needed to be replaced. |
