Not sure how you can have an automatic in too high of a gear? Almost sounds like an ignition/engine electric problem, like plugs or wires...

Alright so I have done the code reading but no codes have popped up so I think it may be something minor. Perhaps I do need new plugs and wires. I havent changed them since I got the car a year ago. I have put like 20k or more miles on it so far. And I dont know how new the other plugs and wires were when I got it.
