I checked transmission, it is good and full. I drove three blocks when my car was idling and turned off at a stoplight. I put car in park and turned key of course it started back up with no hesitation. Now at home, since did not trust being stuck in cold weather with my daughter.

Hello,

This sounds like its a input shaft speed sensor but to be sure lets run the codes to see what comes up. Here is a guide to help you. Is this a hybrid?
