There's your problem

2000 Lexus ES300.

Pissed that it died so soon. I never trusted the "No need to change transmission fluid under normal conditions", but the trans shop said they didn't see any signs of overheating, so I don't know if it was a defect or bad lubrication.
$1600 later and I have a rebuilt one.

It's my fathers car. 80% highway miles.
Just driving along, then boom. Barely able to get it off the road before the wheels locked up.
