I had just gotten off and exit ramp and was getting on the interstate. When my car got up to 40 mph, it bogged down and down shift. I removed my foot from the gas pedal and let it get down to 30 mph, and applied my foot on the gas pedal again. This time when it got to 40 mph, it bogged down the only difference in the first time, it jerked. When I got off the interstate, I pulled into a parking lot and let the vehicle cool down for about 30 minutes, I started the car, but now it would not go into reverse or drive 1. I had to push the vehicle out of the parking spot, when I put it into drive, it went with easy. I noticed that the vehicle was not changing out like normal and the RPM gauge read 2500 RPM at 50 mph. This has never happen before December 15th. I would love to know what is going on with my vehicle.
