I have a mountaineer that has a slight drag in transmission, today the check transmission notice appeared and the O/D light on dash began to flash. Any ideas?

Thanks, I'll see about that. Odds on how long before she strands me along the road?

It cold be a while just no overdrive. If fluid is dark brown or black then it's not going to be very long anddon't change fluid at this point it will go quicker.

Thanks again, we'll hope for later than sooner. Work vehicle, very little down time. I'll have her checked out asap. Peace & God bless.
