Default Transmission Went

Well, the wife's '01 PT (80,000 miles) lost it's automatic transmission tonite. Check engine light came on and 60 miles later transmission made bad clunking noise and my wife pulled off of the road. PT wouldn't move and made bad sounds when she put it in any gear. The check engine light was solid so we were told it still could be driven. It's only when the light is blinking you should pull over quickly and turn off the engine. Had it towed to our place and Friday morning will be towed to dealer. Tow truck driver said he's towed a few PT's and minivans with blown trannys. Luckily we have an extended warranty. One of the main reasons we got the extended warranty was because of the automatic transmission.
