Angry uh-oh

my 2000 expedition just stopped moving saturday. wife dropped me of and went to leave won't move. here a slight grinding when you give it gas, plus truck shimmys a little. The grinding almost sounds like torque converter or front pump. anybody else have similar problem?

Is your transmission fluid level correct?

Grinding in a automatic transmission is a bad thing....always. Something broke possibly the torque converter or pump. Regardless, debris from whatever broke went everywhere in the transmission and a overhaul or reman unit is most likely in order.
