The computer keeps resetting the transmission auto shifting system; allowing the trans to only shift into 3rd and reverse. The repair shop could not find any problems witht he trans, and replaced the shift and reset the computer. The problem is persisting and i've had to have the computer reset now three times since the original incident.
