Default transmission problems

i have a 1996 dodge avenger with a v6 and an auto tranny. last night i was going down the road and i had it in drive and it all of a sudden jumped out of gear and stopped pulling. and then it shifted to 2nd gear and drove fine. Now all i have is second and low gears. drive is gone. does anyone know what could be wrong with this. any information will be greatly appriciated

That is "limp mode" it means the tranny has a problem ... You'll need to get it to a tranny shop / or dealer to scan the tranny and see codes
