I must assume that it has an automatic transmission.
Check the fluid level in the automatic transmission, adding fluid as necessary, and note the condition of the fluid. It should be RED, mostly translucent, and should have a slightly sweet petroleum odor. If it is brown, black, murky, or has bubbles, you may only need to have the fluid and filter changed.
More likely, the seals in your transmission are failing, and you may need to have the transmission internal seals replaced.
I own a "06" 500 with 150,000 miles on it. My Ford dealer recommended transmission service at around 90,000 miles. I don't recall the exact cost but it didn't seem unreasonable, around $140.00. No special pump out or filtration, just drain and refill.
CAUTION: Using a transmission fluid that indicates a dual usage MERCON and MERCON V in a transmission application requiring MERCON, may cause internal transmission damage. The use of any fluid other than the recommended fluid may cause transmission damage. Some fluid labels may indicate dual usage such as MERCON and MERCON V. These dual-usage fluids are not to be used in transmissions that use only the MERCON type fluid. These dual-usage fluids may be used in transmissions that require MERCON V use.
