The past year I have noticed sometimes it feels liks my trans is not in 1st gear all the way but it still goes. This is an intermittent issue. I had the tranny flushed and the prob went away for a while but did come back. A few days ago I got in my van and started driving. The van would not go into 2nd gear for a while and when it did it went back to 1st w/in a few second or two. Now my van won't start at all. I didn't see any codes when it started having issues. What is the problem? I was thinking nuetral safelty switch.
