Hi,

It could be dirty or contaminated transmission fluid. have the transmission serviced and add automatic transmission conditioner additive. Drop the transmission pan and clean the valve body and transmission fluid filter screen with parts cleaner. I am attaching repair guide below for you to refer to. Let us know if you need and more information.
