1995 Eagle TalonTransmission & drivetrain

1995 Eagle talon tsi automatic transmission went out. Here's how... I wasn't even moving and went into the car wash and nothing happened car didn't even move. It will start in park and neutral. But will not go in gear. No sound was made I was going in the car wash and went to push on the gas and car did not go anywhere. So the employee's there had to push it through the car wash. Will not shift at all. Fluid level is good and clean has been served before but why did it go out. I've check everything. By the way im certified in automotives both gas and diesel. So I know what im talking about. So the recall should cover it.... It better. It would cost me over $1800.00 To fix it. *Tr
