I put 24 rims on it I came from MD it was okay, the next day I took it for a ride stop at a red light then when it changed to green it will not move at all. I tried reverse still nothing. It sounds like I was in neutral. Then I turn the car off for a few minutes turn back on and drive half way home. Can help me please?

Hi,

The most important thing is that all wheels and tires are of the same size.

The first thing I suggest is to check the transmission fluid and make sure it is full and clean. If you look at the pic below, it included the procedure for testing the fluid on this vehicle. Do this and let me know what you find. Also, let me know the color of the fluid and if there is a burnt smell about it. One last thing. Let me know if the transmission has been serviced and when.

Take care,

Joe
