Transmission issues Sign In

2015 Honda civic, 140k miles, automatic 1.8L 4 cylinder

I was driving my car, I reached a slowdown on the highway. As slowdown cleared, I accelerated. The car revved as if it was on neutral. I put car in park, turned car off. Turned it back on and put it in drive. Same revving, not moving. Wouldn't move in reverse either. No check engine light, no message from car.

I got the car towed to the shop, shop tells me its a bad sensor(I forget the name of the sensor). They're going to replace the sensor, change the transmission fluid. $500.

I get a call from them today, saying they changed the part and fluid, and now the check engine light is on and its telling them i need a new transmission.

Is this normal? Can they possibly have damaged the transmission while changing fluid or the sensor? Am i dealing with a bad mechanic?

You could be dealing with and "incompetent" mechanic. I can't tell you much with the little bit of information you are supplying. At the very least I would get a second opinion.

Thanks for the reply, Happy Thanksgiving.

What other info do you need? Is there anything specific I should ask the shop?

Its been difficult, I broke down in a different state, and have just been dealing with them via phone. Ill try and get more info after holidays.

I'm definitely getting a second opinion.

When you post we need specifics.

What is the code number?
What was replaced?
What specifically does he suspect has failed.
