Good Afternoon,

I have a 2000 Dodge Neon automatic transmission. Sometimes when I am at a red light or stop sign, the car will like slip out of gear. It will be like that for a couple of seconds then when it gets back in gear, it will be like I am peeling out or something. I need to know if this is something major repair like getting a whole new transmission or something a little more simple.

Please advise.
Thanks

First thing to check is fluid level and color, Has the tranny ever been serviced? New fluid and filter? Any service engine light on?
