My poor car....a tale of woe

About 6 months ago I replaced my expansion tank.

2 weeks ago the drivers side vertical plastic part of the radiator cracked.

I work at a Honda dealer and they put in an aftermarket radiator at a very reasonable cost.

2 weeks later the waterpump failed throwing the belt a few blocks from home. I nursed it home.

I had to have it towed to the dealer. Luckily my brother is the GM.

Needed Waterpump, 2 belts, oil cooler, 2 hoses. I get a loaner, a couple days later fixed.

A week later, today, I'm rounding the last corner to home and the transmission starts slipping. I only have a few hundred yards to get home. I made it just barely. Went into "failsafe mode"

Two very distinct trails of fluid about a foot apart going down the road.

Any thoughts? 01 4.4 108K

Thx.
