POWER TRAIN - AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

 My vehicle is a 2005 lincoln navigator. the vehicle came to a stall while driving on the expressway. the motor was running but the vehicle would not accelerate. this is very frightening as vehicles following closely are unable to determine when my vehicle is slowing down because the brakes are not applied. the vehicle slows rapidly and there is no way to drive the vehicle to a safe place out of traffic.
