I was driving on on a city street when the truck started to hesitated. The transmission seemed to change hard. I stopped at a light and I noticed that the o/d indicator was on. When I started to move again, it seemed as if the transmission was slipping and the trans fault indicator came on. The transmission did not change smoothly when I drove approximately another mile. I parked the truck in fear of further damaging the truck.

Started vehicle with no issues, drove from home to location approximately 30 miles away. During the drive, I could feel a "hesitation" during the automatic shifting of gears. Hesitation seemed to progress during drive to location. Arrived at location with no further issues. 3 hours later I left location, in route back to my home, and noticed same hesitation. On the way home the "trans fault" code came on and the "o/d off" indicator light began blinking on and off. I arrived at my home with no further issues. While at home, I attempted to place the vehicle in reverse and it did not shift for almost 3-5 seconds, then the transmission seemed to abruptly shift into reverse. At this point my vehicle is not operable for fear of causing further damage.
