The transmission oil cooler inside the radiator is no good and allowing the fluids to mix. Not a good situation, don't drive it until it is fixed.

Why is red fluid leaking from your 1998 chevy venture. it looks like it coming from the front of the van?
red fluid is transmission fluid and could be leaking from several locations around the transmission. Check the cooler lines where they go into the radiator, the seals where the axles go into the transmission, but most likely is a leaking pan gasket, etc. The only good way to find it is to look under the van and see where the wet spot is located
Why is the Jeep Grand Cherokee leaking transmission fluid from the radiator?
I wondered the same thing. The radiator doesn't only cool the engine coolant, It also cools the transmission fluid that comes from your transmission through the cooling lines. So your radiator has a crack somewhere and that would explain the transmission fluid leaking out. Hope that answers it. William @ JeepGrandCherokeeTransmission.com
