I am having problems with my car. When moving at higher speeds such as 60-75 miles per hour, my car does not want to shift out of fourth gear. It will only shift into overdrive if i let off the accelerator. I took it to advance auto parts and he said the transmission fluid might be low. Well it was two quarts low, the fluid has never been changed. It is a 2008 Pontiac G6 with only 46,000 miles on it. It does not leak, which makes me think it came like that from the factory. Well after we put two quarts of fluid in it, the problem still exists. What is wrong?

Have the computer scanned to identify trouble codes. It could be several things that could cause this.
