It sounds like you need to take it to a transmission specialist as there is some mechanical issue in the transmission that is near catstrophic failure possibly and could pose a danger. Make sure you take it to a transmission repair shop and not a standard repair shop as trnsmission require special expertise and tools to repair and diagnsose them properly.
