The car has been great, the transmission was new with a little over 30k on it, I havent had a problem up until now, but I pulled out of a parking spot and the car suddenly didnt catch the rpms shot up but the spedometer wasnt going anywhere. Eventually it caught but it roughly shifted into gear. I am hoping it is something small, I am a college student and dont have a ton of money. I am trying to find an answer online I dont want to put strain on it and hurt it more. Thank you so much for your time

I need you to check a few things ok. First with it running in park check the transmission fluid make sure it is full. If it is full use the chart below to determine if the fluid is burnt. Now I also need you to check the front drive axles are either of them loose like it might be broke.
