my car is acting funny it was fine up until this evening. The transmission maintenance light was on, then all of a sudden the car started sputtering and jerking. I bought some transmission fluid, but I am not sure if that is the real problem or not. I do not know what I should do, but I do not want to get hustled at an auto shop and pay for services that will not fix my problem.
