There should be a drain screw on the bottom of the pan, drain the pan it is recommended that you change the filter also, you have to unbolt the pan and lower it to change the filter. bolt the pan back up and fill the transmission back up. i hope that helps you out.
To add the transmission fluid you pull your oil cap remove the cover as if you were going to change the oil filter on the same side as the oil filter or the drivers side their is a cap that has a gear on it look down past the hoses and you will see the black cap you will need a long neck funnel and only use the dex III you will need to find out how much fluid the transmission hold hopes this helps you.
Go on u tube they got videos to show u how to do it step by step

SOURCE: Trans-axle fluid leak
checking the transmission fluid involves lifting the vehicle and removing a plug on the transmission, it is quite difficult and messy if you don't have access to a lift, the vehicle has to be level and at operating temperature in park, there is a small plug on the side of the transmission near the passenger axle shaft. remove the plug slowly, i believe it is an 11mm bolt, if fluid drips out, the level is ok, if no fluid comes out, there is a small plastic screw on cap on top of the transmission itself on the driverside near the oil filter cap, add fluid slowly untill fluid starts to drip out of the plug hole, once the fluid starts to drip, insert the plug and tighten, don't overtighten, just snug it up.!!!make sure you use the right fluid, this is important!!! i believe your fluid is dextron 6, double check in your owners manual, the use of any other fluid will cause damage!!! also, do not remove the small plug on the front of the transmission, that is the pressure plug, all the fluid will shoot out with force if that plug is removed!!!

I had the defective cooler replaced yesterday and the Ford service manager told me there is no pan or filter in the 2008 escape, only a screen.
SOURCE: How do I change the automatic transmission fluid
there will be a plug at the bottom of the transmission. pull the plug, let it drain, and replace the plug. Refill with the recommended amount of fluid out of the owners manual. Run the vehicle through the gears a few times with the car started. let it idle till the temp. comes up, then check the trans fluid level and add till full
SOURCE: how to you check the transmission fluid in 2005
I believe you have to crawl under the car and check the level thru a sight window in the side of the transmission.

COULD BE FAULTY VECHICLE SPEED SENSOR. BUT HAVE VECHICLE CODE SCAN. YOUR VECHICLE TIME FOR TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGE IF FLUID IS LOW. YOUR VECHICLE HAS A CHECK PLUG ON TRANSMISSION ADJACENT TO OIL PAN DRAIN PLUG. YOUR VECHICLE HAS TO BE LEVEL AND RAISED ON A CAR LIFT WITH ENGINE RUNNING WITH CHECK PLUG REMOVED. TRANSMISSION FLUID SHOULD DRIP OUT SLOW DRIP FLUID LEVEL GOOD.TRANSMISSION FLUID DRIPS OUT FAST TOO MUCH FLUID IN TRANSMISSION. IF NO FLUID DRIP OUT YOU NEED ADD PINT AT A TIME.IT MUCH SAFER TO LET A GARAGE CHANGE CHECK TRANSMISSION FLUID.WARNING THIS IS A DANGEROUS JOB TO DO YOUR SELF.VECHICLE NEED TO BE RAISED UP ON LEVEL HARD SURFACE.CAR SHOULD BE ON JACK STANDS.ENGINE NEED TO RUN UNTIL TRANSMISSION FLUID OPERATING TEMPERATURE REMOVE THE 11M OR 12M CHECK PLUG ON TRANSMISSION PUT DRAIN PAN UNDER TRANSMISSION. IF NO FLUID COME OUT ADD PINT AT A TIME. YOU POUR TRANSMISSION FLUID AT TOP TRANSMISSION AREA WHERE FILLER TUBE USE TO BE LOCATED REMOVE THE RED VENT FILL CAP.SCREW IT OFF USE A LONG LONG FUNNEL TO POUR FLUID IN TRANSMISSION. TO DO THIS JOB YOUR SELF NEED HELPER OR SOME BODY AROUND AT ALL TIMES BECAUSE ENGINE GOING TO BE RUNNING, YOU ARE GOING TO BE DIRECTLY UNDER THE CAR.WEAR LONG SLEEVE COVERALLS TO KEEP FROM GETTING BURN UNDER CAR.DONT PUT HAND OR ARMS NO WHERE NEAR THE CRANKSHAFT PULLEY WHILE ENGINE RUNNING.LIKE I SAY BE CAREFUL THIS JOB IS A DEALERSHIP JOB.
in the air and there is a 11mm plug on the bottom of the transmission, With the car running (WARNING: THE CAR MUST REMAIN RUNNING WHILE PLUG IS OUT!!!!) take the plug out, the fluid should trickle out of the hole. If no fluid comes out add fluid. AGAIN DONT SHUT THE CAR OFF WHILE IT IS RUNNING OR ELSE FLUID WILL POUR OUT!"
