2019 PHEV. Left dealership oil change 2 days ago and transmission started missing. Went somewhere else next day and transmission fluid had been drained from car. Up until that point, there was no sign of a leak. 2nd place refilled transmission and now the leak is apparent. It is the cause of my engine light coming on and the EV SYSTEM SERVICE REQUIRED warning light coming on. They said I need a new transmission. What else can I do? Any other thoughts?

Did the Service person at tge 2nd place, not find the Drain plug lose or with a cracked seal?

If not then, sounds like the Dealer never put fluid in it.

Weird that you did not see a warning light or Service Light on.

No, the second place couldn’t identify where the leak is coming from just that I need a new transmission. They said that’s why my check engine light had come on. Leak is now apparent when I drive car goes into safety mode and won’t accelerate.
