ahhhh ok im just really scared..she just got it and i only took it because there was no gas in mine. i only went about thirty miles per hour but you think i should still take it to the shop? how badly do you think it is damaged?
If the car overheated and made noises, it is damaged.
You must take it to the shop. Replacing a transmission is a lot cheaper than having your parents die and take along whoever else they hit when their care goes out of control.
I am sorry, but this was a major issue, and needs to be looked at by a professional.
You aren't the only one to ever do this, so don't feel like you are. Plenty of people have made the same mistake, now please go take care of it before anyone gets hurt.
