Would you recommend replacing a transmission in grand carivan that lost fluid due to seal failure and was driven for 20 miles?

Okay, if it was driven for 20 miles, the transmission was not empty. It would not work if it was. Did it quit moving on its own? If so, then I would recommend it. If it was still able to move under it's own power, I would recommend taking it to a shop that can do a full fluid flush (not just drop the pan, I am talking about a machine that completely flushes out the transmission). If they are able to fully flush the transmission, it will probably be fine.

What if your 2002 grand am keeps cutting out and is shifting hard what could be the problem?
the tranny fluid may be low or need to flush tranny ***These transmissions are prone to failure when abused, at all. The problem you are describing sounds like intermittent failure of the EPC (Electronic Pressure Control) system within the transmission. This will require diagnosis/repair by a qualified mechanic. Do not have the transmission flushed, transmission flushes are not necessary and can damage your transmission. Even automobile manufacturers recommend against flushes - The only necessary periodic maintenance on an automotive transmission is regularly scheduled changes of the transmission filter & fluid.
