I'd driven 60 miles to destination. 1/2 hour later went out to Trailblazer. There was a large puddle of transmission fluid under the vehicle and a trail of drips leading up to it. Mechanic determined the line rubbed on catalytic converter and wore a hole in it. The fluid sprayed all over under the vehicle. He said it was amazing there wasn't a fire because of how flammable it is and how hot the converter gets. It was down 4 quarts of fluid. He spliced out the worn line and used a coupler to fix it and move it away from the converter.

Transmission line leaking. Cooling line rubbing on catalytic converter. Transmission fluid leaking on converter. Smoke could be seen. Possible fire issue. Transmission failure possible if fluid level too low. Line was in contact with converter. Remedy was to have all lines replaced so they were routed away from converter.
