2004 Dodge Nitro

Transmission problem
2004 Dodge Nitro Automatic 78000 miles

Some how water from the radiator got mixed in with my transmission fluid. So i took my car to the shop where i got my transmission changed. But now they are telling me that my car still isn't switching gears and that is an electrical problem, is that accurate?

Yes, the transmission shifts electrically. As far as the coolant mixing with the trans fluid, the radiator is leaking inside. The trans cooling lines run through the radiator to help cool the trans.
