Default problem tranny?

my 2000 stratus wont go into first until reved up to around 3500. I checked the fluid and everything looks good, (level and color), any suggestions? Oh, its an automatic and I have the 2.4L engine.

sounds like a torque convertor problem...is the fluid especially dirty?

that's strange... it shifts normally otherwise? I'd go with badstrat on that one, but maybe squee will have some insight.
