Any Tranny False Alarms? or All Bad?

Have you crossed any creeks or deep puddles lately? You almost could be describing a frozen up transmission.

Jeep transmissions do not have high water vent lines for some really strange reason.

What kind of warranty did you get with that transmission repair at 110k? How long will it take you to get to the repair shop in reverse? No, there is nothing obvious you can do, except make sure that the oil level is up.

the wife took the car in for an oil change and transmission oil change a week ago (at one of these chain shops). they changed the filter (transmission)....and could have very well not placed in adaquate fluid. i will check this tonight. thanks Lance

could be. i am going to check the oil level tonight....but i do have complete and full power and the car operates fine in reverse. i am hoping it's an oil issue of course.

one other thing i forgot to mention...the car basically stopped on my and i parked it on the street after it would not go forward while in gear (only backward). I left the car parked (10am)...came back to the car at 11:30 am and was able to get the car to go foward in motion...however only for about 300 feet or so and i parked it again. had to go to work, will check the oil tonight and let you know.

thanks lance
