I have a 98 mazda protege with an auto. Transmission. I had to replace the cv joints and after they were put on I test drove the car and it was fine. I parked the car and went out the next day and it started but it wont go into drive. This was not a problem that ever happened before and the car starts fine and rides fine, only if it would go into drive. Do you have any suggestions. Please keep in mind that I am a disabled female with two kids and I do not want to call a mechanic and have them take advantage of my situation. Can you help please?
