have you put new brakes on? did you check the park brake cable? does it have tracktion(sorry i know i spelled that wrong) control? a friend had one and he could turn the control on and off with a dash button.
did they check the trans converter at the shop? other than that i'd say "the old grey mare just ain't what she used to be"
