I was driving down the road when the transmission started to slip. I continued to my home (less than 1 mile away) where I then checked the transmission fluid level (it was normal) and looked to see if there were any leaks (none). I then started the engine and it made a clicking and grinding noise in park. The noise stopped after 2-3 seconds and then I attempted to back out of the drive. It slipped again, and when I shifted into drive, I there was no response except for the increase in rpm's. The vehicle is currently at the local Ford dealer to asses the repair bill.
