You may have a broken transmission line. Automatic transmission fluid is usually red. Manual transmission use a heavier gear oil thats greenish-brown. Check your automatic transmission fluid level by reading the dipstick while the motor is running, Top off whats missing and take it imediately in for repair. Better to pay for a replaced line now than to have to pay for a transmission rebuild later.

If you agree that the answer I provided is correct please remember to "accept" and/or mark it as "helpful" so I know I'm doing a good job. Thank you, I would really appreciate it.
