| My 2002 town and country had to have a new transmission in 11/12. in june of this year, my speedometer quit working causing the transmission to shift hard. i took it to the transmission guy who replaced the speed sensor. it worked fine for a couple of weeks. then my battery light came on suddenly. i had my battery checked and they said it was fine. they said i might need a new alternator. so i had a new alternator put in. the car did ok for about a couple of weeks, then the speedometer started jumping erratically. i took back to my transmission guy who said the speed sensor was fine. he thinks it may be due to a loose wire or a possibly damaged wire or corrosion. so far, no answers and my car is still undrivable. it jumps when i am stopped. it acts like its already in second gear or something. i am afraid to try to drive it as it is dangerous. help! i can not afford to put more money into this. it cost too much to start with. 3.8l v6 limited. i am a single mom with a child who has heart defects. i need reliable transportation! *tr | |||
