I assume this is an automatic transmission.
Have you checked the transmission fluid? Be sure it is at the "full" mark. If you have never changed the transmission fluid, change it. If you still have shifting problems, you'll have to take the car to a dealer or transmission specialist.

Whatever you do, DO NOT go to AAMCO or any other chain-type repair store. I say store because they like to sell transmissions.
Find a local tranny shop certified by ATRA and talk to them.

Take it to a local AMMCO tranny dealer, they'll check it out for "FREE".
