Check your automatic transmission fluid first, see if it is full and or smells burnt. If it is low that could be the problem, but if it smells burnt the transmission is going bad and should go in the shop.

run fault codes and check for TCM operation. Change the oil and clean the filter. Have the bands and clutch packs adjustment checked while the pan is off.
I have a 92 Crown Vic first and second works fine reverse works fine when it shifts in the third gear it goes to slipping and overdraft can you help me fix this problem thank you
No reverse and only second,You have a internal mechanical transmission failure,This had nothing to do with you using cruise control,The transmission was ready to fail
Retrieve the engine and transmission fault codes, if any.There could be many reasons. But to start with, check the transmission oil level and catalytic converter.
Are you sure the trans is in 3rd. Pull the stick into low gear accelerate shift to 2nd about 20 mph shift to 3rd about 35 mph then 4th about 50 mph. This will let me know how to go further with your problem. If you do this proceedure write the results on this Great FixYa Page!
