I crashed my car last week. Ran into a wall on freeway. I drove it off the freeway, but after it was towed home, I replaced the radator and now it wont move win I put it in drive. My cars acting like its stuck in nutral. Starts up fine but wont move win shifted to drive, and only makes a small noise win I put it back in park. Still rolls while n park, emergancy break not working, and I think i've thought of every thing to find out whats wrong. Cheaked trany fluid, cv joints, trans axle, and shift linkage. Am I missing something? Did the tow truck driver un hook something? OR Is my trany gone?

Raise both front wheels and see if both tires turn when only turning 1. Make sure shift linkage is adjusted right. No park may men it's out of adjustment. I had a car towed once and they broke my steering rack because the frame mounts shifted because they were sloppy from rubber deterioration.
