Q: Power steering fluid

The rear window washer sprays the rear window with washing fluid, and then wipes it away. This increases your visibility when the rear window is dirty. To operate the rear window washer, rotate the rear wiper switch on the wiper...

That is very few miles to experience a transmission failure. However, it's not likely that this type of thing would have been caught during the multi-point inspection - especially since you said it drove fine right after you bought it....

I don't know if all this started happening simultaneously or if these issues have been slowly accumulating, but here is how I would proceed: begin with a battery test (https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/how-to-check-a-car-battery) and clean and make sure to tighten the cable connections....
