Either Mr. Badwrench over filled it or they put the wrong fluid in. My 2008 takes some sort of "WTS" grade of fluid. Anything is else bad news. I imagine that the same thing goes for earlier models.

I'd have it towed to either the Mechanic or to a professional tranny shop. I would not under any circumstances but an emergency drive it at all.
