I had to stop quickly and hit the brakes hard. When I got ready to drive, the car would not go. I put it in park and then back into drive, it still would not go. I put the car back into park and turned off the engine. A few seconds later I cranked the car, put it in drive and everything seems to be okay now. Any ideas? Thank you.

Hmm, sounds like the brake booster or brake pads may have jammed, are the brake pads in good shape? Does your car have ABS? if so we can scan the unit here is how

we should run the transmission codes as well
