Answer
John,
The hit the car had could have cause the drive axle to be forced into the tranny, causing strain on internal components.  There's even a possibility it caused damage to the torque converter.  You should have a transmission shop inspect the tranny for damage, and also inspect the TCU.
Good luck!
