The transmission probably needs to be rebuilt. Resist the idea of visiting your local junk yard in the notion you are going to get off cheap.

I have a 2010 Ford explorer and it won't go in drive or reverse. But it will go in 3rd. It's spitting out antifreeze at the housing and it smokes but it's not over heating on my thermostats in the truck.
