I was driving along and I went to stop but the brake didn't stop the car so I put in the car in park. Then the brake and engine lights started flashing at me so I turned of the car. I wasn't driving very fast at all, probably less than 20 miles per hour. Then when I restarted the car the brake and engine lights cam back on and the brake still wasn't working, and the car rolled while it was in park. I was not able to move the car to a safe spot. I had to sit partially in a traffic lane near a dangerous, blind curve. A sheriff's deputy saw my car and pulled in behind me to help protect me while we waited two hours for the Auto Club. My mechanic said the transmission totally failed and caused the problems.

Hi. I notice the engine light has been coming on a lot. When I'm at a complete stop, my car would jump like it wants to cut off (which thank goodness hasn't happened) and I can't barely pick up speed when it does that. Its been doing this for a year now and I have no idea what the problem is. I'm wondering if anybody else is having this problem. I have a 2015 nissan versa and its only 3 years. I shouldn't be having problems with a 3 year old car which I do keep maintenance on.
