I was driving and the car stalled and flicked on every light possible. Car would shake on its way to the mechanic. I was told it was an issue with my transmission and we were advised to replace the transmission. I got the transmission replaced now and the car drives as smoothly as ever but when making a slow stop (city drive) at a red light or stop sign, the car will shake for a second, stall but will immediately start back up with a twist of the key.
