She may be able to drive it a bit if she starts out in D1, then manually
shifts it. You need to be sure that the idiot lights are all working.
Perform the 'Lamp Check' as described in the Owner's manual to be sure
the Malfunction Indicator light isn't actually trying to tell you
something. 110,000 miles it 177,000 Km. I'd have changed that tranny
fluid at least three times (twice each time) by now if i was the
Original owner.

Let us know how it goes. 'Curly'
