More transmission problems

This may have been discussed and I just missed it, but yesterday morning I went out to start and nothing! I had all electrical, but no click of a solenoid, just silence when I turned the key. The three bars came up on the dash just as what has been discussed before about a stuck shifter, but my shifter was not stuck, so a call was made to Penske. We went thru the turn key on and shift thru the gear routine and still nothing. They called for roadside assistance and in about 45 minutes someone came and went thru a jump start because Penske told them to try that first. Nothing happened. I was then told that it had to be hauled back to the dealer (approx. 150 miles away) for service. The dealer called be when it arrived and said that they would get right on it. They called this morning to say that it was repaired and that it was the electronic shifting module and what it had done was to quit communicating with the engine. I am going to try to get more info on this when I pick up the car, but according to the dealer, they haven't seen many of these problems, but when it goes, it just happens without warning. He did say everything is paid for, except I have to drive 150 miles up and back to get it home. Anyone heard of this problem?
