Pulled out of the driveway the morning of january 8, 2002 and into traffic. Felt a hard jerk and heard a strange winding noise. The transmission would not shift out of first gear. Took the van to the dealer and they said the transmission was shot from an internal failure and would need a new transmission. The dealer installed a new transmission at a cost of $2147.28 with a 3 year / 36,000 mile warranty.
