It depends on how much fluid leaked from your transmission. 2 quarts would probably be considered ok. anything more, the transmission might start to slip intermitantly and cause internal problems. Mac's Transmissions Houston, TX 281-743-1000

What happens if you have too much transmission fluid?

The vent location on automatic transmissions has to be located very high in order to keep fluid from leaking out on an incline! The vent is for air not transmission fluid. Both a high or low level can cause transmission damage! Low fluid levels cause the transmission pump to cavitate and can damage many components including the transmission pump, clutches/bands, torque converter, and valve body/governor. High fluid levels can cause dragging drive clutches and lock-up torque converter clutch. The clutches drag because the fluid level is above the exhaust passages in the valve body and the spinning clutch drums or torque converter causes fluid to siphon back into the clutch drums from centrifugal force. Valve body exhaust passages are located above the fluid level to break the siphoning effect. Very high transmission fluid levels cause churning of the fluid when it contacts the clutch drums and planetary gear sets and can foam so much that fluid runs out of the air vent. If transmission fluid comes out of the air vent.

Can replacing the serpentine belt damage the transmission on a 2002 Ford Taurus?

No. The serpentine belt controls A/C, alternator, water pump, power steering pump, and that is it. And if the belt is replaced properly, it will not cause damage to anything.
