Car ran fine. I pull out of a street, car doesn't seem to want to shift gears. I drive it very slowly about a quarter of a mile. Turn in my driveway and it shuts off. Now will not turn over. Help me please.

Hello my name is Dave.

My first thought is voltage although there are a great many of issues that could cause these symptoms. I would start with a battery and alternator test, I have included a link to our tutorials on these procedures.

Even if your lights are coming on this could still be your problem, If these tests come back as passing please let us know and we will be happy to guide you further. Thank you for using 2CarPros.
