2003 Tahoe Transmission slips after driving for 5 minutes

I have a 2003 Tahoe that drives fine for the first 5 minutes. After that the transmission starts slipping and then it won't go in gear at all. If you turn the truck off and wait a minute or so, and start it back up, it will drive fine for a few minutes before the transmission starts slipping again. Before this started happening, we heard a hissing noise. Any ideas as to what is wrong?

My over drive light keeps blinking periodically on my ford escape 2003. it seems to drive fine, I just had the transmission replaced 2 months ago. What could the problem be?

Get it back to where you took it to be fixed ASAP. You should definitely have, AT THE VERY LEAST, a 90 day warranty. This seems like it's something that wasn't reconnected properly or at all. Good luck!

1999 jeep grand cherokee transmission

This is called limp mode chrysler did this to protect the transmission without leaving the owner stranded by the road,a few things will cause this mainly putting the wrong fluid in the transmission,they use only atf+4,or the govenor pressure sensor is acting up which should cause a check engine light to come on,or the transmission just needs a fluid and filter change,should be done every 2yrs or 36k miles,due the fluid and filter change about 40.00 but if you have the wrong fluid then the whole system needs to be flushed and refilled-transmission-torque convertor,radiator and cooler if equipped and all lines.
