The car will start and you can shift from park to reverse or to drive but the car will not move. Heard no noise previously. Some leakeage noticed on driveway but not alot.

Check the trans. fluid (level surface, engine running, in park).

If the car will not move in neutral (pushing it), you may have a brake caliper stuck, parking brake cable stuck etc.

If it does move in neutral and the trans. is full of fluid, then you most likely have a bind in the trans. somewhere and would need to have it evaluated by a reputable trans. shop or dealer.
