I know this is an "old" issue and there is probably lots written already, but I am limited to my cell phone and I cannot easily use the search function with the cell phone internet.

I was stranded hours from my house yesterday when my transmission fried going 35 mph down the street shifting from 2nd to third gear. It appears to be the same output shaft issue a lot of people have dealt with, but I have never raced it or run it hard, so i am a little confused?!?!? i have 1450 miles on it.

regardless however, I am in a hotel waiting for my car to be fixed. they said they haven't been able to figure out the problem yet but will be taking apart the transmission today to find out whats up. Clearly I want to be home for Christmas, and I was simply wondering if anyone knows what the repair time is for these output shafts? Is it a 24/48 hour thing or should I start making arrangements to travel home and come back and pick it up?

The dealership has been very nice, but they also seem very clueless regarding the current existing problem, and i'm not getting any timing answers from them.

thanks for any help!!!
