This seems to ba a fairly common problem for this car. I have this car and I am learning more about the problem. First, if the "Air Bag" light is on, DO NOT drive the car. Any time this light is on, you stand the chance of finding out what happens when you shift the car into low gear at highway speeds. Not fun. The car randomly shifts down into low gear which is abit unnerving. Second, although I have not been able to track down a firm answer to this problem. The most common procedure that I have found is to take the car to an "Auto Zone" where they will hook your car up to a "Diagnostic Computer" which then tells you what may be going on.
Some posts that I have read suggest replacing the main computer ($300+). While others suggest sensors and or "reprogramming" the computer. While still others suggest that simply disconnecting the battery serves some good. The lack of good "I got it" posts on the internet is either a bad sign(no fix) or the contrary(no need to go back to the computer because I fixed it. I am going to try some of these steps myself later so I do not have all the answers yet either... Hope this helps

Why after turning the motor off fluid comes out of the transmission?
Find out where. Usually transmission fluid leaks from either the front or rear seal. The front seal (between the engine and transmission) requires that the engine or transmission be removed from the vehicle for replacement. The REAR seal (assuming Rear wheel drive) can be replaced by removing the driveshaft from the transmission tail. Front wheel drive vehicles typically have a seal on each of the "half shafts", and each manufacturer handles that differently. Sometimes you need to take the front end apart, sometimes it's just a few bolts. Sometimes it's an entire transmission rebuild.

How does the egine make the car move?
The engine has a crankshaft that is connected to all the pistons in the engine. When the engine is running the pistons are moving up and down and are turning this crankshaft. The crankshaft in turn is spinning a shaft connected to the transmission. The transmission is turning a driveshaft that is connected to the differential which in turn is turning an axle connected to the wheels.
