Q: car stopped while on road and couldnt move while in gear
Hi my 2002 Honda Accord stopped on me while I was on the road like something had snapped off. The car was still running but whenever I put the car in gear it wouldn't move at all. I left the car off for a while then once I try to crank up the car later on it wouldn't crank up anymore. Really need some help please I have a 4 cylinder.
My car's transmission is unknown to me.
