Consumer Description

I was driving perfectly fine and i stopped at a red-light. I went to accelerate and the car wouldn't shift out of first gear and then check engine light came on. I pulled over and scanned the codes, it showed code p0500. After bringing to shop and reading thousands of different things from people who own the car online all said the same thing. Transmission valve body is shot. I almost got rear ended when i let off the gas because the engines rpms were so high casuing quick engine braking.
