Does your explorer also shiftharsh into reverse? If so the the likely suspect is the solenoid assy in the trans. These solenoids control the fluid pressure needed to shift. For some reason Ford has a problem with these; even up to the 2006 models.

Check the fluid level. Also your transmission may have a bad rear seal causing the fluid to leak out into the transfer case. My aunt's Mercury mountaineer did the same thing, and there was a service bulletin out for that particular problem. Take it to your ford dealership and have them check that seal for you.

it could be a simple fix such as the torque convertor, unless it is inside the transmission itself, then you cannot replace the part , you have to replace the whole transmission. AAMCO give free estimates.
