Just got home form a week vacation to find a nice reddish puddle in my driveway underneath our 2008. we have 45k on the truck. It appears to be leaking from the trans pan area and down over the exhaust. I was too tired when I posted to realize the fluid is red, not green as the post states

I do have a ford certified used warranty and the trans has already been out of the truck at 16k to replace overdrive clutches. I am not too thrilled to realize the there is not even a dipstick to check the fluid level

Any insight would be great, I plan to see if warranty roadside coverage will at least tow it to the dealer vs. my driving it tomorrow

What kind of green is it? Is it coolant/anti-freeze green? How's the level of the coolant?

Coolant level is good and it looks like trans fluid and is slick like trans fluid
