i just bought my car lastweek.it has been driving perfect untell like on the 3rd day it begains to skip,so i payed it no mind because i thought maybe i needed a tune-up or maybe oil change.i came out this morning and started my car up,drove it for 3 hours and noticed that it started to skip so,i got out of my car looked under-neath the car and noticed a HUGE! puddle of transmission fluid on the ground.so i tryed to pull off but the car didnt move at all untell i smashed the accelerator very hard then it pulled off with a huge jerk,so then i put the car in reverse and smashed the accelerator again and it jerked back again.so,i instantly added more transmission fluid into the car(hoping i can make it back home)but it leaked straight out of the car before i was able to drive off,so i instantly shut the engine off and let the car sit,does this mean i blew out the transmission or does this mean i may need hoses,lines ect?..
