Need some help, I just noticed a puddle of transmission fluid underneath my 01 gt. The puddle size is about 3-4 inches in diameter. Any ideas whats going on?

It's leaking

What year, model & transmission? If it's in your sig I can't see cause I'm on the ipod.

The most likely places are the front and rear seals. You'll need to jack it up and see if you can find where it's coming from.

It's a mostly stock 2001 gt, with a stock auto tranny. Guess the question is can I still drive it safely and any idea how much the repair will cost?

If its an auto it might just be the pan leaking. Get under there and check it out. If it is, just drop the pan, replace the filter, gasket, and fluid and you're done.
